Yesterday I accidentally almost deleted my /var folder, I tried to “undo” it but I thought nothing was going to happen because at this point nothing had changed in the system but today when I tried to restart the system it hangs at “Stopped GNOME Display Manager
Starting GNOME Display Manager”
And never starts, I also can’t run any commands. Could someone help me, please ? (I tried to attach a picture of the screen but for some reason I can’t do it)
ctrl+fn+f2+alt
to switch to tty2 and login there and enter sudo systemctl restart gdm.service
Thanks for you answer. So, when I open tty2 it doesn’t allow me to type any command, it just appears a blinking underline and when I try to type nothing happens
in that case try to switch between ttys with ctrl+fn+f3+alt
so on
I found one I can see what I’m typing but no commands are working. When I press enter it just breaks a row
please share a screenshot here. upload it to imgur and share link

use the installing medium for manjaro (usb stick). poweroff off the system and reboot to the live session.
sudo su -
manjaro-chroot -a
systemctl enable gdm.service
pacman -Syyu
sync
exit
systemctl reboot
remove the usb and try to boot into your existing system
