Did you try unplugging the USB drive drive?

i did the second i was facing the sys monitor issue

I had a very corrupt Pen drive i wanted to delete volume and reformat but once i inserted (i just left it in while it was booting up) chrome doesn't open, Firefox says need to quit the running firefox to open.
Cannot select processes in the gnome system monitor (like it ghosts back to file system, as if someone is constantly clicking file system), POP SHOP cannot look for anything. tried to reinstall by going recovery mode, first time it failed-restart then tried again. it worked but login back in gave me the same issues again(Even the extensions and apps are intact- i thought i needed to reinstall them, did it even do anything?). I have no idea what to do and i cannot do anything or write anything in the \home. NOT EVEN A FKING SCREENSHOT.
HEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELP

UPDATE
Fixed.....
Just needed to change from full to half duplex, even my ISP have no clue but my connection shows its true package speed when i run at Half duplex now as the port itself is damaged (kinda) i believe it cannot push that many lanes(for full duplex) but windows somehow is able to carry it regardless (i made some changes in the adapter settings to give me stable ping). HOW THE FK I DIDN'T THINK OF THIS BEFORE.

https://www.garron.me/en/linux/ubuntu-network-speed-duplex-lan.html as to how i did it (i am still a noob but this was fun)

What I meant, are the port  separately configurable on the router, and if they are, have you changed any settings?

 

If not -> it is most certainly a H/W failure on the router.

um they are not, its static IP and DNS is fixed and i checked port trigg/forwarding but nothing there. but how is it a hardware failure if i am replying this using that port.

Are the ports somehow different (on the S/W side of the router)?

 

If I understand your description correctly, it looks like a failing port (i.e. doesn't work, works after fiddling, doesn't work at home while other ports work ... etc; i.e. works - doesn't work - works - doesn't work ... )

can you rephase what you asked, i didnt get it i think

they are physically the same and ya idk. let me rephrase- it only works on my PC (windows), other PCs have windows too but they dont work (cant detect ethernet cable) as well as my Linux(dual boot).

I don't think I said "chroot" anywhere...?

 

"mount point" and "user name" are just place holders for the path where you mounted the partition and the user name of the account you want to change the password of... for example if you mounted the root partition in /mnt and the user was "pluto" the command would be

passwd --root /mnt pluto

and this should be done without chrooting...

I just remembered my password, i missed this so much TY though, You already know i am a noob in the linux world

Few days ago one of my ports died, and the next day after i checked it up by my ISP (they usually don't ask to bring the router to them) and after a lot of tinkering somehow it worked (he was shocked as he basically gave up on it and 5 min later it started to work again) . Later when i log into Linux_ it does not connect. If i just change the port (on the router), it connects with no issue. Also i have 2 other computer that CANNOT connect to that port.

can you walk me through it though? very new to linux- also i made a recovery partition when i installed.

it doesnt work

Yes, you can use a live cd/pendrive to change it. Mount the root partition of your installation wherever you want, then:

passwd --root MOUNT_POINT USER_NAME

 

can you walk me through it though? very new to linux- also i made a recovery partition when i installed.

Anyway i can get in?

Try the one you selected.

didn't work.. anyways i formatted and reinstalled. now i could have used recovery mode but i was stupid enough not making one in the first place(partition i mean). 

which one

1 hour ago, Sauron said:

go in /var/apt/cache, it should contain every .deb package you installed (including current and older versions of the gpu driver). Find the nvidia driver package (not sure what it's called on pop) and install the version before the current one like so:

sudo dpkg -i <package name>.deb

then reboot.

Try reverting to an older driver version. Also again, what gpu do you have?

how???

Nvidia 1050ti

That's not what a hang is.

 

Anyway plymouth is just the software that hides boot information with pretty graphics so it's not essential for your system to function. If you can't see the login manager and get dropped to TTY then I suspect your gpu driver is crashing. What GPU do you have? Did you update the system before this happened?

latest driver, POP os 20.4 (ig they updated with the drivers as well)

so... it doesn't hang? can you login to a terminal?

i mean it stuck at plymouth

yes i can

log into terminal

I basically copy pasted a reddit post and the image but i have exactly the same issue except i can get into the terminal.. guys i am literally 3 days new to linux and cant follow up that. i have a live Cd for POP os and my boot options are ok aswell. SVM is on(idk this was the last thing i did and ran a VM for andriod using QEMU. 

Just now, databreach said:

I recommend getting qemu. It's easily the best emulator out there. But you need to run it from terminal I think. It has all the tools you need for both android and windows. Just look up doccumentation or some specific tutorials.

you mean i need to start it with terminal? sure i can do that.. GUI is not a problem for me.

i was surprised NTFS is readable
