Asked By CuriousCat123 On

I'm a new Linux user and I recently switched back to Gnome on Ubuntu after using KDE for a bit. Upon rebooting, I was greeted by a lock screen that showed a mobile keyboard. We disabled sddm and enabled gdm, but now I'm just stuck on a TTY screen and I'm not sure what steps to take next to resolve this issue.

It's really important to provide details about your distribution and hardware when asking for help. It makes troubleshooting a lot easier!

Thanks for the tip! I’ll make sure to include that info next time.

You might want to try running this command: "XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland dbus-run-session gnome-session". It could help start the Gnome session manually and get you back to your desktop.
