Hi, after my last update I seem to be having some similar problem. i posted a few days ago:

> Hi, after the last update my Mabox stopped working. I do not know what happens, it boots, shows the full “Desktop”, including the Conky but this shows as if it had no activity, all processes at 0 (zero), the keyboard does not respond, I can open, for example a terminal, the file manager but they do not work, do not respond, I saw that there are new updates but also does not respond the updater, I tried with the USB but did not recognize it, ie Bios recognizes it but does not boot. I do not know …

The grub boots, Mabox displays on the screen but nothing responds, at times Conky shows zero processes, as if there was no activity, I can open the file manager but I can’t do anything with the keyboard, I can display the side panels but they don’t respond and the last time I tried I can’t see them, they are like a shadow in the background but you can’t see the elements, I opened Terminator but I can’t type, the keyboard doesn’t respond.

I have a Live pendrive created with Ventoy on which I have the Mabox and Antix Isos.

I tried both isos on the notebook and they worked but on the pc the Mabox one doesn’t work, it throws the following errors

“failed to start light display”

“/dev/sdc1 Can’t open blockdev and then it says FAT-fs (sdb3): volume was not properly unmounted. Some data may be corrupted. Please run fsck.”

Antix does not use systemd so journalctl is not responding and I can’t get chroot to work, maybe I am doing something wrong with this. I am downloading a new iso from Mabox to replace the one I have.  
I discard errors due to lack of resources, maybe some problem with the configuration that was changed during the last update, or some driver.  
Mabox was running better than ever, even faster, more fluid,
