I have an issue with the X server it seems.
I ran “sudo pacman -Syu” and after rebooting there was an issue where my Manjaro would be stuck at blank screen.
After some further investigation I found out that if I hit “E” in Grub and remove “quiet” and add “3” at the end to change runlevel it allowed me to log in to my system via terminal.
Next thing I tried figuring out is why my window manager doesn’t work. If I run the startx command I get a blank screen only resolved by a reset button on the PC, but if I run startxfce4 command, my desktop and windows load immediately.
I followed advice here since it seems like exactly my problem: “/r/archlinux/comments/8dv8ab/startx_not_working_but_startxfce4_works/”
and backed up my .xinitrc file and deleted everything and only added exec startxfce4 in it, but upon rebooting I still get a blank screen (I’ve got no compton or quicktile to remove).
I am assuming this could be a problem with permissions or something, but I don’t know how to proceed since I am pretty new at this linux thing. But at the same time it also makes sense to me that the permissions wouldn’t change a thing since running startx still doesn’t work even after I am logged in as my user in the terminal. At this point I am a bit confused.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Right now I am logging in the OS by always editing the startup instructions (remove quiet and add 3 at the end, followed by logging in to the terminal and running startxfce4)
My current .xinitrc file:
#!/bin/bash
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)
exec startxfce4
And my backed up (one that was actual before I changed it)
#!/bin/bash
#
# ~/.xinitrc
#
# Executed by startx (run your window manager from here)

Thank you!
What is the output when you run startx.
If I run startx I get a blank screen, with no known (to me) way to come back to terminal, CTRL + ALT + F2 doesn’t work.
I saw the second error first, which shows something to do with a webcam error. Or something like that, as AFAIK uvcvideo handles webcam stuff.
Then upon inspection, I saw the first error, which very clearly states there is a Hardware error, albeit with the motherboard. But, and I don’t know if it’s so, if the webcam connects VIA USB, it might be picked up ass a problem with the motherboard…
So try without it, maybe it works then. If it does, then you know, if it doesn’t then report back.
Oh, I tried disconnecting the webcam and rebooting.
If I leave it running without interrupting I still get a blank screen, solvable only by a reset button.
If I log in via terminal and run startx it loads my desktop and windows as it should.
Edit:
My question now is, how do I fix so that I can log in via xfce login screen instead of doing that manually?
systemctl enable lightdm.service
Try restoring that .Xinitrc backup you made.
my opinion:
Starting by booting into runlevel 3
and the directly starting the xfce session
works because the display manager is not involved.
Maybe you changed something in it’s settings
or didn’t fully update …
jan 22 01:08:42 tacijosip-systemproductname systemd-coredump[2917]: [🡕] Process 2830 (light-locker) of user 1000 dumped core.
whatever you did to it (if you did something) - reverse it
and run pacman -Syu again to be sure the update wasn’t a partial one
If I restore the .xinitrc startx command stops working and leads to a blank screen again.
Hi @Nachlese, thank you for your comment and suggestion
I ran the pacman -Syu again and my output suggests there is nothing to update
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
multilib is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
there is nothing to do
Hi and thank you for your suggestion, if I run your command I don’t get any errors, but if I check the status it comes back as this:
○ lightdm.service - Light Display Manager
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/lightdm.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
Active: inactive (dead)
Docs: man:lightdm(1)
OK, last thing I can suggest, see if you can sync again:
Note:
I have NO, 0, zip, if this will work or what the effect might be. this is wwhat my logic dictates. I don’t know if it’s correct or flawed. So continue at own risk!
pamac --enable-downgrade --overwrite $(pamac list --installed --quite | grep -i xfce)
there is something missing here
- no reports of graphics for Intel® UHD Graphics 630
- also this nvidia is still working with 390 series , or need nouveau ?
may be check and test with kernel 5.15 lts series
- light-locker is not present on my side for Xfce
Are you sure that you cannot switch to another TTY?
This means it is enabled (but not immediately started) - it probably was enabled all along already.
It is started on next reboot - but starting it is what doesn’t work
apparently.
systemctl start lightdm.service
will do that
