re /etc/x11/xorg.conf i only have this & it contains : Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "vesa" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" Device "Configured Video Device" EndSection thanks |
Test removal of nomodeset and recovery from the kernel cmdline at the grub menu when booting by striking the e key, moving the cursor down to where nomodeset and recovery are present, and delete or backspace them away. This won't help until xorg.conf is renamed or deleted. With these three changes, automagic should produce expected results.
That kernel cmdline looks like it resulted from choosing a non-default Grub menu selection. If that's the case, then choosing a selection that omits them should be all that's needed at boot time, but still that xorg.conf needs to go. If booting with neither nomodeset nor recovery by choosing an existing Grub menu selection and xorg.conf does indeed produce expected operation, and the selection made is the default, then no further reconfiguration will be needed. If however it is necessary to make the edit at runtime, or manually choose a selection that omits them, /etc/default/grub probably needs an edit of the GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT= line to exclude them, following up with rebuilding grub.cfg using grub-mkconfig or update-grub before next shutdown or reboot. |

If https://linuxmint-installation-guide...-nomodeset.png is the screen you see after boot, try pressing the tab key instead of the e key.
If it's not the screen you see, please describe the screen you see. You might need to hold down the shift key as POST completes in order to see the Grub menu screen where you need to use the e key. |

LVM state Physical Volumes : not OK (BAD) Volume Groups : OK (Good) FYI : $ cinnamon settings Cinnamon warning: Software rendering detected: llvmpipe (LLVM 7.0, 256 bits) org.Cinnamon already exists on bus and --replace not specified if i boot to Advanced Options for LM19.1 - Linux 4.15 0-47 generic recovery mode then i have found that reboots OK without SR mode but then usually reboots back to the same old same old !? thanks |

key or TAB or shift etc ... please confirm ? |
On the screen in the image, after the menu appeared, the kernel cmdline ready to edit is showing, Reaching that point is the result of using the TAB key, as instructed here. This applies when the installation media is booted in BIOS/Legacy mode.
The E key is for initiating an edit upon reaching a Grub menu. After striking the E key, you should be on a screen that looks like this. This applies both when booting installation media in UEFI mode, and when booting an installed system either in Legacy/BIOS mode or in UEFI mode. |
ok i got here https://linuxmint-installation-guide...-nomodeset.png from the Install/Live DVD of LM 19.1 Cinnamon shows like the picture but after the lz shows : quiet splash -- _
