And that should help me how?

Your post is the same as:

Code: [Select]
CPU: 8-Core AMD Ryzen 7 2700X (-MT MCP-) speed/min/max: 2188/2200/3700 MHz Kernel: 5.11.0-rc1 x86_64 Up: 1h 06m
Mem: 2433.0/32098.9 MiB (7.6%) Storage: 6.14 TiB (13.9% used) Procs: 404 Shell: Bash inxi: 3.2.01
Works fine, and now?

Not sure what you mean, there was a new kernel today (and grub) when I restart after du with new kernel it gets to grub with latest kernel and then screen goes black with no cursor. this is with  Kernel: 5.10.3-towo.1 you have kernel 5.11.0. When I reboot with last kernel all works fine. Or did you mean I have not supplied enough information to be useful, what do you need.

Yes, to less informations.
At minimum you should provide the journal from the failed boot. As you can see, Kernel works fine here:

Code: [Select]
CPU: 8-Core AMD Ryzen 7 2700X (-MT MCP-) speed/min/max: 2058/2200/3700 MHz Kernel: 5.10.3-towo.2-siduction-amd64 x86_64 Up: 1m
Mem: 1851.6/32096.8 MiB (5.8%) Storage: 6.14 TiB (13.9% used) Procs: 427 Shell: Bash inxi: 3.2.01

Its at least kernel 5.10.4-rc1.

Is this the log you want.

There is no problem in your logfile.
2nd question, you say kernel 5.10.3-towo.1 fails to boot, but you post a inxi output with that kernel.
How is that possible?

I  said today's kernel update failed to boot  5.10.3-towo.2 . I was posting from my PC with the previous kernel  5.10.3-towo.1

Apologies  :-[

And that logfile is useless, since it is from kernel 5.10.3-towo.1.

I did an upgrade to 5.10.3-towo.2 this morning with no problems, so it doesn't seem inherently in the kernel (which towo would have spotted before releasing anyway).
titan, have you tried booting with an init=/bin/bash option? If that works, maybe boot into single user mode, the command line mode. If you get that far, it would then seem a GUI issue - screen driver, perhaps?
With a black screen, what happens if you press Ctrl-Alt-F1?

It seems, that kernel has a problem with vega graphics.
I can reproduce the issue on my notebook. I will investigate, if i find the problem.
It is then an upstream issue, hopefully it will get fixed, before the release of kernel 5.10.4.
