I have problem with my Ubuntu. I have updated Ubuntu around 01/09/2021. After
this update I restarted my PC and booted Ubuntu. I reached Ubuntu Graphic Login
to Desktop, but I noticed that Login screen is only on one monitor ( I work
with 2 monitors and before both monitors were used) and resolution is not right
(black border around all edges of monitor). I entered my password but I was not
able to get to Ubuntu Desktop. After entering password there was black screen
with some flashes and after few seconds I returned to Graphic Ubuntu Login
Screen. I repeated login operation few times, the behavior is always the same.
I managed to shutdown PC from Graphic Ubuntu Login Screen. I started my
PC/Ubuntu once again but selected advanced boot options. In this screen there
were show 3 last linux kernels. Last one 5.11.0-27 (which does not work I
confirmed this later) and the one before the last 5.8.0-63. I selected this. It
did work and I managed to login to Ubuntu desktop no problems. I decided to
wait few weeks and today 09/10/2021 I have booted 5.8.0-63 and I updated my
Ubuntu hoping that problem was noticed and solved. After update I rebooted
PC/Ubuntu and the problem still persist. I rebooted with advanced boot options.
I have notice that latest kernel is 5.11.0-37, next is 5.11.0-27 and both don't
work (both behave the same) and third one 5.8.0-63 - this one works.
I am not very experienced with Linux, but my gut filling is that problem is
with Nividia Video Driver. First can you fix this problem in next updates? Or
find some work around
