I installed Artix with dinit as init/system manager with a real-time kernel.
With its own kernel it seems to work, but when I select the real-time kernel, Artix won't charge the desktop environment (LXDE), either the display manager(LightDM). The only thing shown is the pure terminal.
As I can see, using dinitctl it shows that " modules " are not loaded. I tried to enable/start/restart it but it won't works.
I don't know if there are others services down because I'm not able to scroll up and down inside the terminal. :-)
Anyway, I checked both dinit and dinitctl manuals but I can't find the correct way to make the system start properly.
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance.
Hi.
If system can't be load due to rt kernel, You should boot up your system with default kernels from your bootloader (such as grub) for debug and checking logs.
I guess you have some modules which are not compatible with rt kernel (or just a misconfiguration in modules service or related files).
According to different sources, I found informations about some incompatibilites with nvidia drivers and real-time kernels.
For those are interest, check the links below:

I didn't have the occasion to try it yet or simply to switch to nouveau for attempting to make it works but almost for sure it could be the problem.
Anyone has already tried?
Little update:
Finally, I was able to run the rt-lts kernel. Having an nvidia gpu installed since the beginning, I had to comment the blacklist for nouveau from /usr/lib/modprobe.d, according the arch wiki.
