On clean install today, i installed nvidia drivers from official site for GTX 850M, went in tty, disabled lightdm, and installed the drivers, rebooted, my card could not be found, i installed the package “clinfo”, and after running clinfo, my card is finally detected in John/Hashcat.

But now i have the same problem as you, my card work, but when using startx, i get the login session, and whenever i enter the password, i get a blackscreen for 2 second and get back to the login session, so i can only use console.
