First time manjaro user here. Updated my kernel from 5.10 to 5.13 and after restarting it, a black screen appears with a blinking cursor. I tried booting with kernel 5.10 then but the problem persists. On searching the forum, I found that most people had issues with their Nvidia drivers. But I have a amd laptop, so their solution don’t work for me.
Hello @Ricksy
So, start with posting the log: /var/log/Xorg.0.log
You can upload all of them with this command:
for x in /var/log/Xorg*; do echo -e "---$x---\n\n $(cat $x)\n"; done | curl -F'file=@-' https://0x0.st
A short URL will appear. Please post that one.
A prompt comes up saying it won’t allow me post links here
Also, hello megavolt
Oh wait
It’s /-J2a.txt
Here is the root cause:
[ 6.582] (II) LoadModule: "vesa"
[ 6.582] (II) Loading /usr/lib/xorg/modules/drivers/vesa_drv.so
[ 6.582] (II) Module vesa: vendor="X.Org Foundation"
[ 6.582] compiled for 1.20.9, module version = 2.5.0
[ 6.582] Module class: X.Org Video Driver
[ 6.582] ABI class: X.Org Video Driver, version 24.1
[ 6.582] (II) VESA: driver for VESA chipsets: vesa
I have mentioned it so often… OMG… sorry, but VESA will be always loaded first and it has NO GRAPHICAL OUTPUT, only basic video output. Remove it again:
sudo mhwd --remove pci video-vesa
sudo mhwd --install pci video-linux
vesa is an Xorg driver for generic VESA video cards. It can drive most VESA-compatible video cards, but only makes use of the basic standard VESA core that is common to these cards. The driver supports depths 8, 15 16 and 24.

Damn it works
Thank you so much
Could I possibly trouble you again? I have dual booted windows and manjaro. Grub won’t show windows for some reason. On executing sudo echo GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false >> /etc/default/grub command it shows permission denied. Same with nano.
Please start a new topic, since it is unrelated to this one. Just mention me there with @megavolt
if you want to ask me, so that I get a notification.
