Stuck at blank purple screen after login Ubuntu 20.04

After logging in after a reboot, it just removes the login window thing and gives a blank purple screen with a mouse cursor instead of my desktop. I can ctrl-alt-f2 and then ctrl-alt-f1 back and it'll reload the greeter and let me log in after that, but it's really annoying and I'd rather avoid having to do that. I'm running 20.04.3 on a Thinkpad P51s. Installing all the updates and messing w graphics drivers hasn't done anything. Help please!
