Hello,
I just installed archlinux following the wiki installation guide.
I'm running a msi laptop with a GTX960 gpu, so I have installed nvidia drivers.
I want to use gdm and gnome, but after installing them, I face a strange situation :
I can run 'startx', which will start a basic environment (a few xterm consoles and a xclock on top right corner, default .xinitrc file).
I can run 'systemctl start gdm' which will start gdm correctly, asking for me to log in.
I can run 'xinit gnome-session' which will launch gnome, and I can use it correctly.
But, if I run gdm3 and log me in, it doesn't start gnome and just keep displaying a black screen.
Here is my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file (built following the wiki page about optimus) :
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "layout"
Screen 1 "nvidia"
Inactive "intel"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "nvidia"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "nvidia"
Device "nvidia"
Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration" "Yes"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "intel"
Driver "modesetting"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
Option "AccelMethod" "none"
Option "DRI" "false"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "intel"
Device "intel"
EndSection
#Section "Module"
# Load "modesetting"
#EndSection
#Section "Device"
# Identifier "nvidia"
# Driver "nvidia"
# BusId "PCI:1:0:0"
# Option "AllowEmptyInitialConfiguration"
#EndSection
and here is my gdm customconf file (I just disabled wayland):
# GDM configuration storage
[daemon]
# Uncoment the line below to force the login screen to use Xorg
WaylandEnable=false
[security]
[xdmcp]
[chooser]
[debug]
# Uncomment the line below to turn on debugging
#Enable=true
I may forgot something about xinit scripts ?
I ask for help about this issue, everything looks working fine taken independently, but not together
Thanks by advance !
