Hi y'all I thought I would introduce myself and kill two birds with one stone by sharing my dilemma.
I have been using Linux mint for about a month just feeling it out and I've been learning something new everyday I swear
But when I went to boot up last night it went to the splash screen and then it goes to a black screen,
I did try control alt...I can't remember the exact I think it's f4..
but that brought me to a screen where I could log in my username came up
when I typed it but then my password won't come up as I'm typing it
it's like I'm not typing anything at all it just there's no letters.
I was all proud of myself for figuring out a possible way around that but now I'm stuck again....
Any input would be much appreciated and I'm super excited to chat with yall
