Unable to Reboot/Awake After Sleep

Support
1

Good Day,

First, I would like to say that I love Parrot. I just started using linux (cybersec student) and I’ve tried a handful of distros but Parrot is my absolute favorite hands down.

I’ve encountered an issue where Parrot freezes whenever I reboot/shutdown. It also does not wake (stays at a black screen) after the computer has gone to sleep. I believe it has to do with the nvidia graphics card (GTX 1060), but I am not sure.

Thank you very much for any help that can be provided =)

What version of Parrot are you running? I am running Parrot 4.16.0-parrot16-amd64 #1 SMP Parrot 4.16.16-2parrot16 (2018-07-08) x86_64 GNU/Linux

What method did you use to install Parrot? (Debian Standard / Debian GTK / parrot-experimental) I used Debian Standard from a USB drive made with Etcher

Configured to multiboot with other systems? (yes / no) Yes, Windows 10

I had this black screen issue before, although i cant remember exactly what i did to fix it. I think killing the screensaver allowed me to get back to the desktop GUI.

ctrl + alt + f1
login duh
ps -A | grep screen
it should list ‘mate-screensave’
kill its process
kill <processID>
ctrl + alt +f7

Hopefully that worked. Then just make sure all your packages are up to date, including nvidia.
(If not you can run these commands in the ctrl + alt + f1 terminal)

sudo apt update
sudo apt full-upgrade
sudo apt autoremove
