Dear holger Beetz,
                                   Your advise worked like magic. Many thanks. actually I had spend several hours to download the Dyne:bolic 3.0.0 and was disappointed that it didn't work. yes, I am using a Nvidia graphics card.
                                   Once again my sincere thanks. What If I want to enable the Nvidia drivers ?
Regards
VG

If you have a NVidia card you might want to try this:
Edited the grub entry by pressing TAB in the menu and add
"nomodeset=1" to prevent Noveau from loading. After pressing F9 to
boot the modified entry dyne:bolic should show up the  Gnome desktop
without issues. At least when Noveau is the issue.
