[SOLVED] Can't boot with sddm or lightdm
A couple of days ago, I was no longer able to boot with sddm. I tried installing lightdm and had the same issue. I have install gdm and that is working for me. I have included the journal entries for both sddm and lightdm as well as the dump file for sddm. I would appreciate any help in getting this resolved. This may be unrelated, but I was also getting a cudaGetDeviceCount unknown error before sddm stopped working and now that I'm using gdm, I no longer have this issue.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't boot with sddm or lightdm
First, Welcome to the Arch Linux Forums.
Second, on these forms, we ask that when you post program output, you surround them in BBCode code tags. Please edit and fix your post.
https://bbs.archlinux.org/help.php#bbcode
That link is also below every message postbox for your convenience
Third, the root cause seems to have to do with gpg libraries. Let's start with verifying that your system is fully up to date. Have you run pacman -Syu ?

Re: [SOLVED] Can't boot with sddm or lightdm
Thank you for the quick reply and I apologize about the incorrect formatting earlier. My system was up to date when this problem happen and I just updated again. The problem is still occurring. How were you able to determine it was the gpg librairies? And why would it only affect lightdm and sddm?

That was an unintentional mistake on my part. I have updated Xorg.0.log.

...be sure to remove /etc/X11/xorg.conf or the conf file in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d related to the discrete graphics card.

Re: [SOLVED] Can't boot with sddm or lightdm
Thanks for the help. I moved xorg.conf to a backup file and that fixed both sddm and lightdm. I didn't think to check with bumblebee since it has been running since I installed arch.
