This problem seems to be similar to what's described in a few other questions, in that the symptoms seem to be identical - after an upgrade to 23.04, I can't boot past the manufacturer splash screen. What seems to be different is that this is on a laptop without a video card - there's no nvidia drivers. The machine is a Thinkpad X1 Carbon only running Ubuntu (no dual-boot)
Prior to the final update, my computer was using the i915
video driver. After booting into recovery mode, no video driver was listed as in use - though I'm not sure if this is because I was in recovery mode.
Would appreciate any help figuring out what driver might be causing me problems!
I have tried several times with a clean 22.10 install I can't even boot into recovery mode so can't play with drivers.
Grateful for your advice
