I've come to ask for your help because I've managed to make my linux session inaccessible and I don't really know the extent of the damage.

Currently when I want to start the Ubuntu session the following message appears then nothing happens:

/dev/sda6: clean, 293099/3055616 files, 5009083/12207104 blocks

Here is the course of events:

I have installed slime:

sudo apt update
sudo apt install slim

I wanted to uninstall it I used the command:

sudo apt-get remove slim

Then:

sudo apt-get purge slim

When restarting the session the message appeared

/dev/sda6: clean, 293099/3055616 files, 5009083/12207104 blocks

I found a similar problem on the internet which was solved by

sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
sudo ubuntu-drivers autoinstall

I performed its actions but the problem was not solved so I'm afraid I made the situation worse. So I stop experimenting and come to ask your opinion. I'm still new to Linux but I'm aware that my approach was not very smart. I was in a hurry and I should have stopped in time.

I would be very happy to have a diagnosis of what is happening and of course a solution if it exists. Thanks in advance

    Does this answer your question? ["dev/sda1: clean, ..." This message appears after I startup my laptop, then it won't continue booting](https://askubuntu.com/questions/882385/dev-sda1-clean-this-message-appears-after-i-startup-my-laptop-then-it-w) – kenn Feb 18 '22 at 17:26

    I think if there was an unclean poweroff. Then your pc is cleaning and you ought to wait until starts. I think it could happen if for example if pc is shut down by pressing the power button continuously. Is it possible that you have lost data? I am also new. Could you describe more? – G Ugauga Feb 18 '22 at 17:33
