Hello Team,
Hello, Sailor. No team here. Just users like us. Hence "debian-user".
Greetings. When i tried to install Debian xfce in my new computer Acer Aspire5, NVIDIA hardware pre installed support, i faced an issue after reboot the system as "failed to start light display manager. So how to fix this?
Hopefully someone who knows something about display managers will turn up and interrogate you.
I tried the button to access termial as Alt + ctrl + f2, but it does not have any effect on screen. Kindly do help me to fix it. Thanks.
When the GRUB menu shows up, hit 'e' for edit. Then use the arrow keys to navigate down to the line that begins with "linux" and probably ends with something like "ro quiet". Leave the "ro" alone, but you can delete "quiet" if it's there, and add systemd.unit=multi-user.target and then hit either Ctrl-x or the F10 key to boot into multi-user mode, which won't try to start your display manager, but ought to give you a tty where you can login. In multi-user mode you can cycle through all the ttys with Alt-leftarrow or Alt-rightarrow. Or if you have a favorite one then Alt-F1 through Alt-F6 will take you to tty1 through tty6. -- It is said that if you wash a cat it will never again wash itself.
