I'd just installed ubuntu 20.04 and after 1 day it's stuck at black screen after booting. An underscore is blinking on the top corner ...

There are many solutions regarding ubuntu 16, 18 but I'm new in ubuntu 20 Is there any change?

I've fix this just few minutes ago. It was due to Nvidia driver. After going into recovery mode and opened the root terminal.
sudo apt-get remove --purge nvidia*
and then
sudo reboot
for rebooting the ubuntu. It rebooted with the Xorg graphics.

  • Unfortunately, this did not work for me on Ubuntu 20.04 I still see the blinking cursor instead of the login screen. – HadidAli Jul 20 '21 at 09:46

    After literally spending a day, this trick worked. Many many thanks to you! – bikram Jul 23 '22 at 08:57

Please try to switch to a terminal by pressing together [Ctrl], [Alt] and [F1]. If this is working, then there should be a login screen where you can login with your username and password. From thereon you can try to gather some informations.

One good source is the systemlog:

journalctl -xe
