Doesn't boot into lightdm/xfce 19 May 2022, 04:40:07 I am a complete noob to this and installed artix (dualboot) and for some reason it does not boot into xfce/lightdm also after I rebooted into artix s6 gave me this: s6 log: warning: unable to rename /var/log/lightdm/current to /var/log/lightdm/previous I have no clue why but with another reboot it went away. Because s6-rc-bundle-update is obsolete (in the wiki) I used touch /etc/s6/adminsv/default/contents.d/lightdm did I do something wrong? Please help me!!!!
Re: Doesn't boot into lightdm/xfce Reply #1 – 19 May 2022, 05:18:28 Did you run s6-db-reload after you touched the file? If so, you should be able to see logs in /var/log/lightdm/current that should tell you what is going on.
Re: Doesn't boot into lightdm/xfce Reply #2 – 31 May 2022, 02:53:03 I did. I reinstalled artix intirely and it seems like xfce or xfce4 is not a thing. I have no clue why. It also says that /var/log/lightdm/current is not a file or directory Last Edit: 31 May 2022, 03:02:27 by SkatRat
Re: Doesn't boot into lightdm/xfce Reply #3 – 31 May 2022, 15:24:19 Can you confirm if the lightdm services are running? What's the output of:Code: [Select]ps aux | grep lightdm

Re: Doesn't boot into lightdm/xfce Reply #5 – 01 June 2022, 03:46:16 In that case, you do not even have lightdm-s6 installed.

It is most likely impossible to use rfkill or bluetoothctl to (un)block devices, yet hardware keys may still work.[2] Always use connmanctl enable|disablesome good troubleshooting tips at the end of the pagehttps://wiki.archlinux.org/title/ConnMan
