Re: Blank screen on tty (console) (revised)

I am unable to use virtual console. Tried all combinations of cTRL+alt+f- .
Only X works fine. Rest all screens show an underscore (cursor) which
doesn't blink. I can't even login.
Even if you wait 30 seconds or a minute or more?
Googling lead to a solution which said to change resolution in grub
configuration and enable grub terminal. It worked for a few days, but
doesn't work from last night.
Debian Stretch with KDE plasma 5
Linux image 4.4 (whatever is the latest one on testing)
Grub EFI.
At the Grub menu, try removing both splash=silent & quiet from the kernel
cmdline, then report back.
(originally and inexplicably without noticing I wrote verbose where it should
have been quiet)
