Yesterday my computer was fine, today I can’t even boot into fedora. I tried all the different kernels offered in the boot menu and I tried rescue mode. I am always presented with this screen.
These are the options are the option in the boot screen
I am using Nvidia Drivers and LUKS encryption. I can get into the terminal by pressing ctrl+alt+f2 but I get no GUI even with startx

I think I solved it. The problem was that I had two cuda repos.
I solved it by disabling one of them.
#1 Determine which cuda package to keep
First I needed to determine which cuda package to keep. I decided to keep the more recent one. The command I used to determine that is.
[julius@joy yum.repos.d]$ ls -lt | grep cuda
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 210 Nov 11 17:15 cuda.repo
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 210 Nov 11 17:08 cuda-fedora29.repo
#2 Disable the one I don’t want to keep
Go to the dir where the repos are stored cd /etc/yum.repos.d
edit the cuda.repo file sudo nano cuda.repo
change enabled=1
to enabled=0
name=cuda
baseurl=http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora27/x86_64
enabled=0
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=http://developer.download.nvidia.com/compute/cuda/repos/fedora27/x86_64/7fa2af80.pub
#3 Update
Then I did sudo dnf update
and restarted and it works now.
[julius@joy yum.repos.d]$ sudo dnf update
[sudo] password for julius:
Repository cuda is listed more than once in the configuration
