I've lost X11 altogether. The gdm repalcement comes up but there is no response to stdio from the keyboard or the mouse. I thought it was my logictech wireless, but standard usb keyboard and mouse also fails to work. I can't even get any into out of it. I tried older kernels, and that didn't work. I did a ctl c before x start and I have acommand line, but startx fails.
It is a bricked box for all practicle purposes right now. I'm trying not to grumble but this hasn't happened in since the mid-1990's
I sent a follow up email with the /var/log/X.0.log to the mailing list
Have you tried a temporary replacement display manager like SDDM? I try to stay as Gnome free as possible so I don't have direct experience with GDM anymore so I can't answer directly for it's behavior. At least you'd be able to rule out GDM as the culprit.
If you have tty, it's not right to call it a bricked box. There's just no working graphics.
From the log in the mailing list:
It sounds like something is wrong with the intel driver. I did find this interesting piece of information in the Arch Wiki (https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Intel_graphics#Installation) (which I was not previously aware of). Apparently some distros recommend
not using the xf86-video-intel driver for later intel cards.
I don't know if that's relevant to you, but maybe you should look into it. Alternatively, you could also attempt to try some Wayland window managers and see if you can get a working display out of those.
there is no access to the tty once X starts up
I tried xdm with no luck - same behavior. I think it is related to a problem in libinput.10.13
I'll post the X log in a second. I have to scp it around my network

that is from starting xdm and xinit on the command line
Well yeah don't start X on boot until you fix this. A bricked machine is one that is completely nonfunctional.
Have you tried downgrading libinput from 1.11.1-2 to 1.11.0 yet?
can't find it with pacman - currently it is 10.13 on the file system
there is libinput.1.11.1-2 and libinput 0.27.1-1 for X.org that are both installed
Yeah those are the latest versions. If you want, you could try downgrading to 1.10.13 since you don't have 1.11.0 in your package cache. Also there's a handy AUR package, downgrade, that you could use to fetch old versions from remote repositories.
It's failing on a wacom driver it looks like. Are you even using a wacom tablet?
[ 982.727] (EE) Failed to load /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/libinput_drv.so: /usr/lib/libinput.so.10: undefined symbol: libwacom_get_button_evdev_code
I'm on libinput 1.11.1-2 but I don't have a wacom tablet attached and I'm also not receiving an error. My son has a wacom and I can try attaching it to my laptop when I get home to see if it does the same thing.
yeah - I do but it is not connected at the moment. It is not just the watcom, it seems to be having trouble with them all.
this is the weird thing
on the hard drive:
libinput.so.10 -> libinput.so.10.13.0
regardless of what packman says, there is no libinoput.so.11 and I redownloaded twice
No that's normal. See the list of installed files (https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/libinput/files/) for Arch.
actually that is what pacman says that libinput.11.1-2 has in iit - as you just wrote..
A circular link:
This is what I have.
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 14 Jun 21 15:45 libinput.so -> libinput.so.10
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 19 Jun 21 15:45 libinput.so.10 -> libinput.so.10.13.0
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 244832 Jun 21 15:45 libinput.so.10.13.0
https://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/slackware-14/newest-x-server-and-libinput-libwacom-have-left-system-without-keyboard-or-mouse-input-4175597831/
This looks like the bug
I wish I could see what it exactly upgraded. How do you roll it back or install an older version with pacman? It is hard to tell where the problem is at this point. It seems to be a system wide bug having to do with the shift to wayland, which is making this even harder to debug. I know that the libinput_dvr.so is the library that is triggering the problem, but that is part of the xorg-server package itself.
It can be compiled with linux from scratch like this:
http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/view/svn/x/x7driver.html
In situations like this I get a tty login or chroot from an Artix iso, or another Linux OS on the same PC.
Look in /var/log/pacman.log to see what was upgraded.
Then downgrade, with root permissions:
cd /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
pacman -U package1-123-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz package2-123-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
Probably there are easier / better ways (anyone have suggestions?) but this uses standard built in commands that will always be available. Use tab completion to make it easier typing the packages in the -U list. You might want to login on more than one tty to get extra pages on view at the same time, also use globs and grep to see what is in the cache if it is more than a tty screenful, like ls package1* .
As far as I know, this is generally the best way to go about it. One of the unfortunate side effects of rolling release is that it can be hard to figure out which package exactly broke for you. You'll probably just have to go one-by-one downgrading until you find something that works (or possibly switch to wayland if you can). The only other thing worth mentioning is that there is a handy AUR package, downgrade, which is a set of bash scripts that make the process easier and can fetch old versions from remote repositories as well as your package cache.

window maker is running with a default setup as if it is not running from my home directory.
Actually, that only works because I ran

su ruben
It fails to work altogether from the command line
