  • My computer boots to a black screen, what options do I have to fix it?

    32 answers



I've installed the Ubuntu Artful (17.10) --- ubuntu-17.10.1-server-amd64.iso on my X86 server.



Now I need the desktop environment so I try to install the desktop:



apt update && apt install ubuntu-desktop && reboot


However, I get an interface as below:
enter image description here



In fact, it seems to work. I think this is the login interface... Besides, when I get such an interface, I have been able to ssh on the server, which means that the system has booted successfully.



How to fix this issue? I executed the same commands as above to install the desktop for Ubuntu 16.04 and it worked.

Well, my actual device is an HP Probook 4540s with a Validity fingerprint sensor (VFS491). The fingerprint sensor worked fine on Windows but I can't get it to work in Ubuntu. The device is recognized as 138a:003d but is not detected as a fingerprint scanner by some apps like Fingerprint GUI. I want to use the fingerprint scanner to log in into my user account in Ubuntu but it doesn't supports fingerprints without special software and the drivers of the fingerprint scanner are available for Windows but not for any Linux distribution. I found something on GitHub (https://github.com/eekpie/libfprint) about the integration of the VFS491 in libfprint and I think it can help but I don't know what to do with it, so that's why I need the help of the community to do it since I am...
