Hello dear community, hope you are doing well.

I have posted my first query here yesterday which i find lacking in describing my issue.

SO HERE I AM ONCE AGAIN ASKING FOR YOUR SUPPORT.

• I looked it on the forum and came across few posts.

1. Manjaro is stuck in loading splash screen
2. Manjaro Stuck at Logo When Booting

• I sudo nano-ed the /etc/default/grub
  and remove “quiet” from GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet apparmor=1 security=apparmor udev.log_priority=3" , saved it and updated the grub.

• upon rebooting, I encountered the same line during the boot up.
  [numbers] Bluetooth : hci0 : BCM : firmware Patch file not found , tried :
  [numbers] Bluetooth : hci0 : BCM : ‘brcm/BCMHK20782A1-0a5c-21e3.hcd’
  [numbers] Bluetooth : hci0 : BCM : ‘brcm/BCM-0a5c-21e3.hcd’

other non-important info.

1. i have it in a dual boot configuration.
2. Network device, Broadcom BCM4313 802.11bgn Wireless Network Adapter
   vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: bcma-pci-bridge v: N/A port: 4000
   bus ID: 07:00.0.
3. i have updated mirror list, upgraded the system

Hello @Mahakaal

As I made some research, there are problems with bluetooth devices connected via usb (or internally connected as usb) with kernel 5.10 and above.

Which kernel are you using? Did you tried installing and booting linux54? Probably fixed with kernel 5.11…

1. Start a live session with a install disk.
2. Open terminal and type manjaro-chroot -a
3. Then install the kernel:

mhwd-kernel -i linux54

4. Reboot and choose the kernel at the grub bootloader

Now it’s showing anything but boot stops after

Reached target Graphical Interface

[megavolt]

@Mahakaal

If it stops there, then more information are at the xorg log in /var/log/.

 for x in /var/log/Xorg*; do echo -e "\n--- $x ---\n$(cat $x)"; done

With that you can upload it:

 for x in /var/log/Xorg*; do echo -e "\n--- $x ---\n$(cat $x)"; done | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st

1. do i just copy paste them?
2. what does it do?

[megavolt]

1. yes
2. grabs all xorg logs and print it on the screen, the second one print nothing, but pipe it to curl and it uploads it to 0x0.st, then a link will be displayed.

sorry forgot to mention. You can switch to another tty CTRL+ALT+F3, login and type it there, or start a live session with a install disk, open a terminal, type manjaro-chroot -a and type it there.

This is the problem… please keep sure only video-linux is installed:
(if your on a live session, keep sure you are at a chroot)

manjaro-chroot -a

Then:

mhwd -li

if not only video-linux is installed, then:

sudo mhwd -r pci video-modesetting
sudo mhwd -r pci video-vesa
sudo mhwd -f -i pci video-linux
