I put exec i3 into the ≈/.xinitrc, file, saved the file then ran the startx command and instead of opening a window with a cursor, it showed me all these errors, why?
You're going to need to share the xorg log if you want anyone to be able to help you.
i'm checking that file but how can i share it
Copy and paste it to a pastebin or something.
here then (4 first)
anything wrong in the log file for the first 4?
What is your GPU brand?
nvm i have an amd ryzen 5 3600x 6core
Install pastebinit and pastebin it
pacman -S pastebinit
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | pastebinit -b paste.debian.net
Then post the link
At the very least take photo's straight at the screen. Not a 45 degree angle.
size gets too big if i take it straight on i'm not that stupid, my computer manages to download pastebinit and display the xorg file but when i do the debian.net command it crashes
>download pastebinit and display the xorg file but when i do the debian.net command it crashes
What error message do you get?
I'm not considering you stupid or anything else.
I just can't make out what it says in the photo's without straining my eyes so I don't look.
You could also save the log to a file. Transfer to a USB. Or transfer it over the network.
But if you insist on photo's do your level best to get the best quality possible.
non
none, it just automatically goes to the line below without letting me input anything
i definitly prefer pastebin over photos
That's a CPU not GPU. It looks like you have a nvidia card though judging from the xorg logs. I presume you haven't installed the correct drivers for your hardware. See the arch wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA) for it.
installed the nvidia driver still not working but the number of errors has severely decreased
here is what remains to be solved
i managed to work out most of them but these are the only errors remaining i'm not able to solve
probably be a great idea to actually post the command you used to install the drivers, 'cause there's a shed load in World, Galaxy and Universe and that looks rather messy (all those warnings and missing modules etc). Also, when you get the next issue, could you just keep one thread going? They're all to do with you installing from base , and it gets very disjointed when there are multiple questions on multiple threads for what is you configuring/installing the same thing, a base install. Thanks.
ok. i installed nvidia just by doing the nvidia command, i also let it automatically do the config file, that's all. i really dont understand why it doesn't want to start
what exactly is "the nvidia command"?
the thing that flags in my mind, and i could be totally wrong and linux might be different wth modern nvid cards, but if a system is installed without a specific nvid driver, it will fall back on the basic driver - it won't be pretty (the gui), but it doesn't stop you getting there (that's how it works on MS, and on an old thinkpad with an nvid years back with debian). Like i said, i could be wrong on that and maybe a kindly Dev will say I am, if i am, then I'll learn something new too.
pacman -S nvidia is the nvidia command also yes my screen has its own small graphics card which always works so it's weird
It would be extremely helpful if you could do a pastebin of Xorg log file so we can actually see what your problem is.
https://paste.artixlinux.org
un
unable to read from: https://paste.archlinux.org
also doing the pastebinit -b command crashes the terminal, can anyone give me the genuine command to pastebin???
look at the address you posted (https://paste.archlinux.org) - not the same as the address supplied by robto (https://paste.artixlinux.org)
put the right adress and it still crashes the terminal
what should i do now, i need my pc to work in 2 days
My advice, for what it's worth:
Start again but use one of the iso images that install a working desktop. I'd start with one of Weekly ISO images as they are more up to date but if you have problems try one of the Official ISO's
It only came to me recently that you are the same user I helped who couldn't log in and didn't understand the concept of the 'root' user.
imho you've overreached yourself attempting to install from the base iso.
"Base ISOs allow for a fully customised installation, which is done in a TTY and is intended for
knowledgeable users"
Other users here would be more likely to have been able to help you if you'd shown more willingness, and / or had the ability, to post actual logs where requested.
That said if you do decide to persevere with the base iso install I wish you success.
the ULTIMATE open gtk artix experience
literaly insane!!
well, if that's the case, maybe reload what you were using before in your very first post on this forum, Manjaro, they do have an i3 community version which i think is what you were aiming for here. And in Manjaro, load virtualbox, and when you get time, load the base image and work through it slow and steady and learn. That way, all is good for you, work done, get to learn in a vm environment, gains the knowledge and competency to then do it for real, if you wanted to eventually. Good luck friend.
not so fast, managed to get artix working but now when i try to do a search with my browser it tells me this? also pamac tells me it can't synchronize databases when i try to update
"not so fast"... you for real? Nothing other than patience has been shown from your first post (how to create a bootable .iso from within Manjaro...), so "fast" is most certainly an inappropriate word to use....and did you actually search for this error? I did a simple search and the very first return most definitely gave a potential solution, that'll be the first of over 3000 results.... big hint -try a different search engine if DandG has an issue.
