Black screen after boot?
It seems to boot but goes right to black screen and nothing.
I have no idea what to try next I did the following: Kernel built-in kernel command line (root=PARTLABEL=rootfs) made dir /boot/EFI/Gentoo cp vmlinuz-4.19.44-gentoo to /boot/EFI/Gentoo/bootx64.efi my /etc/fstab Code:
# /dev/sda Code:
efibootmgr --create --part 1 --disk /dev/sda --label "Gentoo" --loader '\EFI\Gentoo\bootx64.efi' |
I added nomodeset to grub and it boots ok. However, without nomodeset it goes black and I am guessing it's nvidia driver.
I followed this: https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/NVIDIA/nvidia-drivers I enabled and disabled all the stuff mention on this page except direct rendering.. I don't know what else to do.. |
I have somewhat fixed the black screen part. Using compat in USE flags it seems conflicts with X. Therefore, if you add -compat to use flags system boots after a few seconds of black screen you should see login.

I fixed it and this is how I did it.
First thing is the wiki is wrong. It says to enable compat in USE tags don't do that. Static-libs not needed either every other USE tag should be enabled. Kernel Configuration: [*] Enable loadable module support ---> Processor type and features --->[*] MTRR (Memory Type Range Register) support Bus options (PCI etc.) --->[*] Mark VGA/VBE/EFI FB as generic system framebuffer Device Drivers ---> Character devices --->[*] IPMI top-level message handler Device Drivers ---> (ONLY THINGS THAT SHOULD BE ENABLED UNLESS YOUR CARD IS AGP) Graphics support ---> -*- VGA Arbitration [*] Bootup logo Frame buffer Devices ---> (ONLY THINGS THAT SHOULD BE ENABLED) <*> Support for frame buffer devices ---> <*> Enable Video Mode Handling Helpers <*> Enable Tile blitting support <*> Simple frame buffer support Of course after you build kernel you need to recompile nvidia-driver Code:
emerge @module-rebuild |
