I have an Nvidia graphics card RTX4060.
This card wont work with the Nouveau, driver so I previously installed the Nvidia Driver using “sudo ubuntu-drivers install”
The latest upgrade (6.8.0-48-generic (64-bit)) reverted back to the Nouveau driver so boot to blank screen. Needed to boot in safe mode & run “sudo ubuntu-drivers install” to fix it.
All fixed just reporting here for information of others who may encounter the same problem
Thanks very much for the post.
I have the same graphic card and the same problem of booting to a blank screen.
I have done a fresh install - using the Neon User ISO (03112024) and booted to a blank screen. How do I boot into ‘safe mode’ so I can install the Nvidia driver?

Here is a link to solve your problem.
The reason for the blank screen is that the install has installed the default graphics card driver (Nouveau). This does not support the later Nvidia cards (yet?)
Once you get to the desktop you need to install the Nvidia driver. Ubuntu now have tested various drivers so its better to use one of them rather than the drivers from Nvidia website.
Easiest way is in a terminal sudo ubuntu-drivers install.
Also the default for neon is to wayland. If that is a problem with some apps, then start it at the login screen with x11 (bottom left corner of the logon screen). If you do this it will then always boot to x11 until you change to wayland the same way at logon.
Edit:
Here is a link KDE GUI won't boot to another discussion with a bit more information for background.
Thanks very much Berniek. Really appreciate your help.
All done.
