my laptop (Thinkpad t450, Ubuntu 16.04) won't boot anymore, it stays stuck on
/dev/sda1: clean, nnn/nnn files, nnn/nnn blocks
I have tried to $ sudo apt-get purge nvidia*
and fsck at boot, but it doesn't help.
I managed to boot in the previous kernel though.
The new kernel that won't boot is: Linux 4.4.0-174-generic
...
Can you help please ?
Thanks
Edit: $ dpkg -l | awk '!/^rc/ && / linux-(c|g|h|i|lo|m|si|t)/{print $1,$2,$3,$4 | "sort -k3 | column -t"}'
gives :

Edit: $ lspci -v | grep "VGA controller"
gives

and $ glxinfo|egrep "OpenGL vendor|OpenGL renderer*"
gives:
