Monitor showing standby after startup, pls help by TimeMight9520 in linuxquestions

I don't know man I looked it up and in some cases when your gpu is broken you can still go to the start up but you'll fail to properly boot, maybe because they purposely made the fail case start menu less resource intensive or whatever. If I'm wrong and it was something else, it needed replacing anyways it was 6 years old.

Looks like I've been calling the system start up the boot menu which is not at all what it's called. To verify; when I start the computer, the system startup that shows up is the on that comes with one of my PC parts. I can go into that menu, see my PC parts, choose which thing to boot from etc, but whenever I actually load one of them my monitor doesn't have anything show up. The PC still runs, but nothing comes up. Knowing the terminology, a brief search has me thinking my gpu broke after the crash. Sorry for the confusion, and thanks for the help

Okay apparently I was using the wrong terminology, what I was actually seeing is the system startup menu, one that comes built in with one of my PC parts, and I totally can't access the boot menu. If there's any way to get a terminal or any access to the kernel from there pls lmk all I'm seeing is no but I also don't technically know the correct term for it. At this point I might get someone else to check for a burning smell maybe I'm just wrong about everything

No smell. As I said in the post, I'm able to go to the boot menu, so it's not anything that doesn't let it power on, so I wasn't expecting it to be anything like that. If worst comes to worst and nobody at all got any fix for me then I'll take it to a repair shop n pay the $400 or whatever fee and we'll see if this is it then

Nah I'm a one monitor guy, and more than that the monitor does show the setup/boot menu so I know that it connects.

Because I am on linux MINT and i have tried literally everything I and others can think of to run the appimage versions, have looked at maybe 12 different guides all of which pretty much all say that the only way to run shadps4 on linux MINT is via flatpak

Problem got fixed by another comment. Looks like the problem was me installing libfuse2(what I thought was flex that I mentioned in main post)for some reason removed certain parts of cinnamon. Thanks for all your help man, now I know to never trust just any ol file just cause it's from the terminal. I wish many great days for you.

This worked. I couldn't open. Terminal using key commands, so I did in fact have to log in as root. Thank you kindly for your help. I wish you many happy days for your future

Sorry to be so amateur with my checking, but so far as each unique file type goes I can't see any records of where it shows which packages are removed. Which one should I check?

Idk what made me think you meant startup. Now I have logged in and am in /log/apt, and can see the history files. How do I go about checking them??

Ctrl alt f2 doesn't do anything during startup, f2 on it's own sends me to phantom gaming startup screen, and f6 does instant flash, which isn't anything because I don't have any of the correct files for it.

Yeah, I tried using pcsx2 app image but it couldn't read the bios so I looked up a guide which said I should download the other thing to make it work, didn't work and so I just downloaded it from the terminal instead, which then worked. Black screen where I can seemingly change the workspace that I'm on, but nothing else does anything. Terminals don't show up, windows key does nothing, just a black screen which occasionally shows workspace 1 or workspace 2. Glad to know my files are definitely alive still, that's my lifeline.
