This Black screen on login, gnome-shell eating 100% of CPU

has the same symptoms I have.

I can login with nvidia-drivers if I

  • recovery console at grub
  • make filesystem writeable
  • resume to gui login
  • switch to tty 4 after login screen is visible
  • login on tty4
  • Switch back to gui login on tty1
  • login is possible

How do I debug this? There is nothing useful in the text logs.

The dupe has no valid answers.

I'm not sure it will help, but there's no need to go through recovery console. You can boot up to login screen, SSH to your computer and run systemctl isolate multi-user.target; systemctl isolate graphical.target to get the same result. Yes, it is not a solution, but maybe it will help you narrowing possible ways of debugging.
