So this issue is related to the latest kernel update I assume. I installed the latest kernel update today, and soon after I wanted to lock my session. Instead of the locked screen, I had an error message saying that the screen cannot be locked, followed by a set of commands to try, which I didnt write down (I probably should have). Since then, the computer boots on this blank screen. From the blank screen I can switch to the command line with ctrl+alt+f1 if I want to.I need to add that the boot loader is fine and so is the filesystem. What can you suggest me to do from here so it boots normally ?Thanks for your kind help!(mint 18 btw)
