[Solved] Failure to start X with NVIDIA graphics card

Apparently even after a 4th install of Arch on different machines I still can't get a working X server on the first try...

The graphics card is

02:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 285] (rev a1)

so I tried both the Nouveau and NVIDIA 340xx drivers.  I'll just report the issues there with the NVIDIA driver for now.

I have an /etc/x11/Xorg.conf/20-nvidia.conf autogenerated by nvidia-xconfig:

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "Layout0"
    Screen      0  "Screen0"

Trying to run startx results in the screen going black, and then dropping back to the terminal after a second or so.  Xorg.0.log does not seem to mention any error (EE), except the final "Server terminated successfully":

Re: [Solved] Failure to start X with NVIDIA graphics card

What were you trying to start? Do you have anything in your ~/.xinitrc?


Not an Installation issue, moving to NC...

Re: [Solved] Failure to start X with NVIDIA graphics card

The log have no errors, you need to check which VT xorg started in, by trying to press CTRL+ALT+F[1to7].

do it good first, it will be faster than do it twice the saint wink

Re: [Solved] Failure to start X with NVIDIA graphics card

Filling in .xinitrc definitely helped, thanks.
I still have problems with kdm/sddm/lightdm but that'll wait.
