The Display Manager was missing (gdm3), I installed it and the login works fine. Now when I log in there is a blue screen and the cursor, nothing else is displayed. Is there a problem with GNOME? Thank you all. On Thu, Dec 9, 2021 at 4:39 PM Thanos Katsiolis wrote: > Hello, > > I fol

Thank you both for your replies. I managed to complete the installation (run also apt full-upgrade successfully) and then reboot. After the update the system boots only with the ttys (1-6) and not with a graphical interface, and by that I mean that I tried to change to the graphical interface with
