the display back from boot up please?
Try Ctrl-Alt-F1 to switch to Virtual Terminal 1 (VT1); if that works,
you can make repairs from there. (I won't go into the repair process;
let us know if you can get to this point.)
If that doesn't work, does Crlt-Alt-Backspace do anything for you?
If neither of those get you to a text-based VT, you'll have to boot into
a "safer" mode; there are several ways to do this, but I'll wait to see
if one of the above methods gets you farther along.
