Hi,
I’ve updated my system via chroot. Unable to enter tty with my keyboard.
Running plasma with sddm.
After entering the password, there is no feedback. Even if the password or username is wrong.
I’ve removed and installed sddm via chroot.
Thanks in advance.
Try logging in to a tty (Ctrl Alt F2 or Ctrl Alt Fn F2) and delete ~/.Xauthority
and without rebooting , go back to your sddm screen, and try logging in again

I can’t enter tty with my keyboard.
I’ve tried all the combos available.
It does not work.
This looks like arcolinux…

Thanks for this. It didn’t even occur to me that this was an option.
Now how to go back to the sddm screen without rebooting?

You need some key combination like Ctrl-Alt-F1 I believe.

That means it is not installed. It is as a default installed on EndeavourOS. Install it with sudo pacman -S inxi

While logged in from tty, run sudo systemctl restart sddm
. See if you will get back to the login screen.

Installed and ran, however there’s too much info.
Is there a way to export it to a doc OE to the internet.

Run this and post the link you get:
inxi -Fxxc0z --no-host | curl -F 'f:1=<-' ix.io
