A slightly weird issue… To summarise:
- My laptop boots and brings up LightDM. I try to log in and am returned immediately returned to LightDM.
- After a failed login,
Xorg.1.log
shows X loading then quitting without errors - it just starts up, then quits - If I switch to a TTY and log in, that works fine. If I log out, then switch back to LightDM and log in, my X session starts correctly.
This happens with both 5.7.10 and 5.7.10-zen. I have no un-merged .pacnew
.
It feels like a systemd user service hasn’t started yet, but surely any user service should start no matter how I log in?
Initially looked similar to
but that was an NVIDIA driver issue - I’m running with amdgpu
.
Any ideas what to poke at next?
