Dependency failed for Light Display Manager

Hi, everyone. I recently tried to update Manjaro with pacman and pamac, but failed. After rebooting, I got this:

[FAILED] Failed to start Monitoring dmeventd or progress polling.

[FAILED] Failed to start Network Manager.

Then the booting stops. I can switch to tty2/3/… with keyboard. But there is only a black screen with the cursor blinking on top left, no response for other inputs.

Any ideas? I found this: https://forum.manjaro.org/t/fix-can-t-login-black-screen-chroot-guide/3904. So, I should try the chroot way?

Yes you should chroot through a usb following those steps and complete your update first.

If there is access to a TTY, you don’t need chroot.

Thank you, I’ll try that.

I can switch to ttys, but the system only shows a black screen and doesn’t response for any inputs :cry:

Now I booted with live usb stick. But when I try to run manjaro-chroot -a, it says:

/usr/bin/manjaro-chroot: line 94:   3416 Segmentation fault      (core dumped) SHELL=/bin/sh unshare --fork --pid chroot "${chrootdir}" ${run_args[*]}

It seems that the original installation is damaged. Is there any way I can repair it with live usb or other things?
