In fact, there seems to be no typo in the commands to delete, but can you have a look there with the file manager for such files?
And do you still have the default kernel 4.19 ? Or have you tried any other kernels?
Maybe installing another kernel from MX Package Installer (Popular Apps tab) .. say 5.4 .. or 5.2 .. 5.1 and booting with that helps ...

Yes, 5.6 is the current one.. Can you install and boot with 5.4 ?
(After installation it will be in sub-menu on Grub .. "advanced boot options")

If the no-mode-set.conf files are gone then try rebuilding the initramfs:

Can you switch to a console screen with <ctrl>+<alt>+F3? Does applying radeon.modeset=0 as a kernel parameter get you to the desktop again?

Maybe the file causes that if it's existing, without deleting :
Code: Select all
sudo mv /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-tearfree.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-tearfree.conf.old
Reboot to 4.19 then 5.4 then 5.6
