Hey guys,
I've set up an Artix base installation of Artix runit with XFCE, lightdm-runit and Xorg. I also activated the lightdm runit service via
ln -s /etc/runit/sv/lightdm/ /run/runit/service
but after reboot I still get prompted by tty1.
When logging in as root and executing
lightdm
Lightdm starts and I can login and the XFCE session gets automatically started as intended. I've already tried to reinstall lightdm and reactivate the service but to no success. So now I am out of options, since lightdm runs fine when started manually but it won't start after rebooting the machine even though the service is activated.
Am I missing something here?
Do you have lightdm-gtk-greeter installed? Perhaps that is what you are missing.
Best regards.
Oh, sorry that I missed to include this in my first post. Yes, lightdm-gtk-greeter is installed and I've also adjusted lightdm.conf accordingly such that it uses lightdm-gtk-greeter.
As I have written above, lightdm works if I run it manually as root.
Do you have any logs to help us know what happens?
Also, show the output for
sv status lightdm
