Hey All,
I recently installed sddm-qt5 from the AUR with the hopes of using plasma-desktop (already installed). I followed the general instructions on the 'Display manager' wiki and ran
systemctl enable sddm When I start my computer now though, I see the following messages related to SDDM:
[OK] Started Simple Desktop Display Manger.
Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status of rfkill2...
[OK] Started Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of backlight: intel_backlight.
[OK] Started Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of backlight: acpl_video0.
[OK] Starting Load/Save RF Kill Switch Status of rfkill2.
[OK] Started Login Service.
[OK] Reached target Multi-User system.
[OK] Reached target Graphical Interface.
After that I just get a flashing underscore and am unable to type anything at all. I should mention that throughout my install of Arch I have seen the message
usb 1-7: cant read configuration, error -71
unable to read config index 0 descriptor/start: -71
I have always been able to type over the error though, and get it to stop flashing with
dmesg -DI do not think this is related, but I figured it was worth mentioning.
I don't really need to get SDDM working, because at this point I am thinking of abandoning the new KDE 5 stuff since it does not seem to be "ready" (for me at least). Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
