I have just installed Lubuntu 19.10 on an old 64-bit PC (Intel Celeron 1.6 Ghz with 4 GB RAM). During installation I had trouble booting up the LiveDVD.

First, there was a snd_hda_intel corb reset timeout error, followed by halting at show plymonth boot screen).

Now, after successfully installing, after booting Lubuntu (after displaying the logo) the screen turns black with a blinky underscore.

I am able to work around it by opening console mode Ctrl+Alt+F2, logging with my username and password, and the starting the desktop environment with startx.

How do I fix this error?

I've tried recovery mode fixing packages but it showed it could not connect to the Ubuntu url. I've also checked for drivers but it says no new drivers found.

This is .xsession-errors

I've also followed this steps but didn't solve my problem.

  • Recovery mode (root shell) is ~like runlevel 1 where networking services are inactive, but allowing you to make changes to your file system to correct local issues. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/RecoveryMode – guiverc Apr 13 '20 at 23:10
  • sorry, but that didn't work – Gaston Apr 15 '20 at 18:52
