Same problem, with manjaro-xfce-25.0.0-250414-linux612.
Login is required, password is accepted, desktop is not completely loaded, when the screen goes black and login screen reappears.
This is repeated over and over again.
Notes:
I use Ventoy to load the live system. Using HP mini 110 netbook.
Live system manjaro-xfce-24.2.1-241216-linux612 works great!
Your post has been moved to a dedicated topic.
Please do not add your issue to another member’s Support topic; this is often referred to as hijacking. Furthermore, the topic has been abandoned for several months; necrobumping;
Yes, we have a name for virtually everything.
You will need to provide a detailed description of your issue, and system information as described (below). Please also tell us the procedure used to install Manjaro, along with any error messages you may have noted.
I’m sure someone will help further as soon as they are able.
Regards.
Welcome to the Manjaro community
As a new or infrequent forum user, please take some time to familiarise yourself with Forum requirements, and the many ways to use the forum to your benefit:
Update Announcements
The Update Announcements contain important information and a Known Issues and Solutions section that should generally be checked before posting a request for support.
System Information
While information from *-fetch
type apps might be fine for someone wishing to buy your computer, for Support purposes more indepth information is usually needed;
It’s best to ask your system directly.
Output of the inxi
command with appropriate parameters will achieve this (naturally, formatted according to forum requirements) and will generally be more useful for those wishing to help:
inxi --filter --verbosity=8
or the short form:
inxi -zv8
- inxi man pages (Arch Manual)
Be prepared to provide more information and outputs from other commands whenever asked. It’s equally important to provide as much actionable information as possible in your first post, rather than simply indicating there is a problem.

-
Did you verify whether the
sha256
checksum of the downloaded ISO matches the one on the Manjaro website? -
Is your USB stick still in perfect order? (They do wear over time, and especially so after too many rewrite operations.)
-
Telling us what model of netbook you have suggests that we should go and look up for ourselves what hardware it contains, which most of us here don’t have the time or the energy for — we are all unpaid volunteers. What we need to know is whether that machine has an Nvidia graphics adapter in it, because Nvidia is the problem child of hardware support in GNU/Linux.
- The answer is yes and the hash is ok.
- On my Ventoy disk are two Manjaro XFCE iso files among many iso files from other distros:
manjaro-xfce-25.0.0-250414-linux612 and
manjaro-xfce-24.2.1-241216-linux612 - I was able to install Manjaro from the older iso.

Some notes:
This HP mini system has only the max of 2048 MB memory.
Up till now that was never a problem with most distros.
Several distros still work on this very old netbook from HP.
Manjaro was the best, once installed.
MX Linux is the best (speed) booting a live system.
I use Ventoy already a long time and the Ventoy disk is 256 GB.
Important is to use the latest Ventoy update.
For me it is not a serious problem. I am only curious if anybody has some idea why Manjaro Live (latest iso) stops setting up the desktop, after the complete taskbar was shown already, and then signs out to the login screen with user manjaro.
It must be hardware related.
I have also an Acer laptop with more powerful hardware and that one loads the Live Manjaro system (manjaro-xfce-25.0.0-250414-linux612) normally from the same Ventoy disk.
Only 2 GiB of RAM and…
… no swap device. That’s a recipe for trouble. I’m actually surprised that you managed to install the 24.2.1
release at all.
I understood that Manjaro can use a swap file when no swap partition is available. Once installed from the older version ISO, the Manjaro XFCE system actually runs fine and responsive, but a bit slow of course. The trouble is only with the newest live system. I found exactly the same problem described in the topic i was removed from. I wanted to make clear that i found the same problem in the newest iso. I hope you realize that it is not so easy to run inxy, when login to the live system is impossible. Luckily i still had the old iso on my Ventoy disk. The older installed iso could also easily be updated. The installed up to date Manjaro version now runs without any problem. Even the RTL8101 ethernet and BCM4314 wifi network interfaces are both running fine, which which is not the case with many other distros.
The average boot time is about 90 seconds, which is fast on the HP mini 110.
If you create one, yes. The system will not create a swap file for you unattended.
That said, even though the performance penalty of using a swap file instead of a swap partition on modern hardware is small, it is still there, because a swap file needs to be accessed through the filesystem layer, and on such an underpowered system as yours, this performance penalty could become quite noticeable.
The most important information in an inxi
output — i.e. information about the hardware — will still be there, even if you run it from another live image. So that’s not a problem.
Yes, it was still recent enough. But if the sha256
checksum checked out fine on the ISO, then the only real reason I can see for the failure to install would be bad sectors on the USB stick in the region of flash memory where the new Manjaro ISO is located.
Either way, that’s a problem you can worry about on another day. You did manage to get the system installed and updated, with everything working, so all’s well that ends well.
One last note: It is definitely not a USB stick error. I use a 500GB HDD.
I also tried the KDE Plasma ISO and that gave the same result: Live system login screen. However when i login using Wayland, then the Manjaro KDE system is completely booted. So it is definitely some strange flaw in the ISO something is wrong with X11, Xorg.
For your information, reference from Xorg.0.log.old
Failed to load module “fbdev”
Failed to load module “vesa”
also, almost at the end of the log:
[ 453.306] (EE) Segmentation fault at address 0x30
Fatal Server Error:
[ 453.306] (EE) Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting
This might be more useful with the log output preceding that snippet; maybe that would give someone a better clue as to where the segfault originates.
Regards.
It took some effort, since kde does not run so well on the mini pc.
First live boot of manjaro-kde-25.0.0-250414-linux612.
Then change to Wayland and login again. Then copy the file Xorg.0.log.old to another computer.
But here it finally is:

This put’s severe strain on your system.
If this is the installed system - I suggest you create some swap space.
See → Swap - Manjaro
Don’t login using the display manager.
Instead switch to an unused TTY - e.g. TTY4 - CtrlAltF4
You can disable the login manager completely and use console login or something like emptty, lemurs or ly to handle the login - with emptty possibly the easiest to start with.
In case of xfce
sudo systemctl disable lightdm
sudo pacman -Syu emptty
sudo systemctl enable emptty
systemctl soft-reboot
The login problem is only with the live system, except with kde wayland desktop. The installed XFCE system works miraculous well, even without swap!
I am not seeing the full picture am I? I think there is some misunderstandings we need to clear up.
You do not need to use the latest ISO - if you already have a working system.
If you kept the installed system up-to-date - you would have been running 25.0 for the past months.
If the system has trouble getting to the desktop using the latest live ISO with Xfce desktop it could be the modest specifications combined with the age of the system.
As the ISO’s has been tested using virtual machine and on some occasions physical hardware as well it is really difficult to deduce anything about your issue.
The ISO does not provide any swap on the live system and that may be an issue with modest hardware specifications.
Manjaro Linux may run on modest hardware - you are proving that - but the official recommendation is a little higher ≃ 2 cpu cores and 4 gb ram.
I know that plymouth may cause issues on certain gpus. To verify that you boot the ISO to the grub menu - then edit the command line for the free driver entry and remove quiet and splash arguments - then press F10 to continue booting.
