Just installed >100 updates as prompted by the Package Manager.
I use KDE Plasma. I tried to reboot by clicking on the “Restart” button on my menu, but my system did not respond. Eventually, I restarted by holding down the Power button.
After entering my disk decryption password, I saw a message telling me to run fsck
manually, because there were file system errors. I did so, and that apparently fixed a large number of them.
I rebooted again, and the following error message appeared:
The boot process hangs after showing the error above.
I started TTY and ran inxi -Fzxxxm
. Here are the results:
Any advice on how I can boot into my desktop again would be greatly appreciated.
I had to reinstall graphics drivers after updating and getting stuck at a similar point. As per:
I just came back home tried to boot my system booted manjaro into black screen saying clean, numbers/**numbers files, numbers/numbers blocks, i waited normally like i always do, system didn’t boot into desktop, can only see text cursor flashing in the corner, can’t use FN with alt +2 or 1, or anything really, confused and is now panicking +scared that i might’ve done something wrong (didn’t mess with any system files) anything i can do to solve this?
But note I’m on nvidia not AMD.
you should have done theses options
inxi -Fza
then you should read this point
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v5.15/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.html
find ( Ctrl+ F ; acpi_backlight)
you will gest this
acpi_backlight= [HW,ACPI]
{ vendor | video | native | none }
If set to vendor, prefer vendor-specific driver
(e.g. thinkpad_acpi, sony_acpi, etc.) instead
of the ACPI video.ko driver.
If set to video, use the ACPI video.ko driver.
If set to native, use the device’s native backlight mode.
If set to none, disable the ACPI backlight interface.
then check in your boot param kernel what can be done for that works
Unfortunately I have a hard time understanding what you wrote. Are you saying that 1) Manjaro Linux has a kernel boot parameters file that 2) contains the parameter acpi_backlight
, and that 3) I can edit this file? If yes, how can I edit this file using TTY? (I don’t know where this file is located, or what it is called.)
see
point 1 : inxi -Fza line boot:
point 2 : if you have grub , press Esc on boot and see on (E)dit lines
I tried booting 4 different times, trying each of the 4 possible parameter values for acpi_backlight
, but none of them fixed the problem.
As a temporary “solution”, I rolled back the package updates by following the instructions in this article :
This has enabled me to boot into my desktop again.
this can only be a temporary soluce to go back ( as downgrade ) on previous packages ,
so if in others kernels , you get in time these error , what you will do ?
beware on VENDOR , it means name as ASUS or thinkpad , etc …

The output from:
inxi -Fza
would still potentially be useful, as it shows more information about your system. Can you copy output to forum?
The following is output from inxi AFTER the rollback

It could be the ‘Failed to start Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness’ error is separate to the reason that the computer doesn’t complete bootup.
Other people have had the error and still booted. You could check if the error is there when you boot in it’s current rolled back state?
possible solutions:
Hello everyone
Today I reinstalled Manjaro KDE
Previously, all things were fine, but now I have a problem(AGAIN)
When I boot I see this error:
Failed to start Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of amdgpu_bl1.
And also my brightness is...
I'm having trouble resolving a failed program during startup. I've read and tried some post that had fixes outlined on this forum but still haven't been able to fix my problem. Here's the error message: [michael@HP-X360 ~]$ systemctl list-units...

Not booting could have been to do with needing to reinstall graphics driver Configure Graphics Cards - Manjaro
