Error to initialize manjaro

startx

And the end of log file:

Sorry for the pictures, I can not use my pc.

Hello and welcome to the Manjaro Community!

I will have a go at converting your images to text, if that’s OK. Bear with me. :wink:

Will the system boot properly from a Live USB? (The one you used to install with should be fine, although the latest .ISO is normally recommended).

I’ve also added an Nvidia tag, in case that helps.

Thanks, I dont know with Live USB, because I can not configurate my USB with another PC, I just have this. (I use this manjaro for about 3 years, but yesterday I do an updated then today broke)

Can you get into a TTY with e.g. CTRL + ALT + F4? (Try others. Two seem to be tied to a graphical display on my system (I’m using Wayland)).

From what I can tell, it’s an Nvidia driver issue, but you probably already know that. :wink: … Or maybe a kernel issue; this sort of thing can happen if you still run an outdated kernel.

Edit: I see you’re on 6.6x which should be OK in that respect.

Of course, I run the commands in the image into a TTY. I can run commands if its the question.

If the issue is due to the propietary Nvidia driver may be helpful installing the free driver:

sudo mhwd -a pci free 0300

If this works, make a snapshot with Timeshift and then try to reinstall the propietary driver.

I did manage to extract some of the text from the first image:

Silly me: I seem to have overlooked startx. I’d try what @Arrababiski suggests.

Not having Nvidia means I don’t get to see these issues.

What you could do, assuming you have internet connectivity (try ping -c3 https://www.manjaro.org for example) is use a pastebin service to post Terminal output:

<command> | curl -F 'file=@-' https://0x0.st

… is often recommended.

Am I missing something, or are you combining a current NVIDIA driver from Unstable with a kernel that is months out-of-date?
