Xorg configuration

Hello

I finally got the system to install from the iso image, but only from the simplest config.  Historically, that has been OK and then I just pulled down a group of packages manually, but I can't get x to work.  It is having, initially, problems accessing /dev/ttyX and it goes on from there. 

I have to download xinit individually with pacman

[
Code: [Select]
ruben@www3 ~]$ ls -al /usr/bin/xinit 
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 19016 Apr  1  2016 /usr/bin/xinit

[ruben@www3 ~]$ which X
/usr/bin/X
[ruben@www3 ~]$ ls -al /usr/bin/X
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jul  4 18:44 /usr/bin/X -> Xorg
[ruben@www3 ~]$ ls -al /usr/bin/Xorg
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 281 Jul  4 18:44 /usr/bin/Xorg

I thought this might be related to attempts at derooting Xorg


file permissions look right.

Hello,
Can you login using display manager (sddm) ?
me too, install Artix LXQT to usb and boot up, but after login to console I can't get X to work using "startx" or "lxqt-session" command.
Using sddm display manager work for me. Maybe it work too for you.

Sorry for my English.


PS: my system installed not using Callamers, but by mounting desktopfs.sfs and rootfs.sfs then copy to usb.

Thanks I appreciate it.  I'd really like to get around a X greeter.  When the server is running, I don't need X.  I need it for ssh tunneling and for some cut and paste.  I noticed lately that X is not allowing cut and paste into or out of  sudo screens  from regular screens... which really sucks.
