Kali linux 2.0 sana Black Blank screen after booting and startx command not found or CPU pipe a FIFO error [solved] | Abhishek Singh

hey guys,
       so how are you all ?
       Today when i finish installation of Kali Linux 2.0 Sana in my machine and reboot it. It stuck with a black black screen.
so if you are also in this problem please read and follow it, in the end you will be with a smile ;]

so on that blank screen hit ctrl+alt+F2
this will lead to command line interface where it shows something like "CPU pipe a FIFO error" hit enter
now give the username "root" [obviously without quotes ;) ]
and hit the password which you enter during installation {default pswd is toor}

now type "vi /etc/X11/xorg.cong.d/20-intel.conf" [without quotes]

for your info-  vi is a text editor of command line.

the above command with create a folder and a file. (nothing you to worry about)

now you will see the vi window

hit "i" button for entering into insert mode. [you will see word insert in bottom left corner of the screen.]

actually this vi editor is little different. ;]

now type the following code in that window [exactly, plz care about whitespaces also and case of letters]

Section "Device"
            Identifier "Intel Graphics"
            Driver "intel"
            Option "AccelMethod" "uxa"
            #Option "AccelMethod" "sna"
EndSection

now press <Esc> button to exit the insert mode. and then press ctrl+z to exit that file and save it.

now simply type "sudo reboot" to reboot your machine.
and select the Kali in Grub if you have.

wait for a while and then smile ;]

owk guys, see you later with new post and problems along with their solutions , thanks for reading also apology for no images in this post.
Happy Hacking with Kali.

    1. If Ctrl+alt+f2 is doing nothing. Then the problem is not with the GUI but Something Else.
