Hi All,
I just recently updated my system (a few hours ago), and now can't seem to start X, I get stuck running through the boot steps, it stops about the time where it would normally switch from really low resolution text, to the native resolution of the display.
I did a search and found that some people were struggling with a bug in GDM (https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/56172), but I already had the package that supposedly fixed the issue, and the other fixes that people mentioned (including downgrading) didn't fix it.
On closer inspection of the journal, I can see the following error message during XOrg's attempted startup:
Fatal server error:
Cannot run in framebuffer mode please supply the busIds for all framebuffer devicesI looked on the wiki and found one page which suggested I should remove package xf86-video-fbdev, but I didn't even have that package. Installing it didn't help either.
My graphics card is an AMD Radeon R9 290X (well, there are two of them, but they aren't running in crossfire under linux), and I believe I'm using the AMDGPU driver.
I've pasted the relevant section of the last boot log (journalctl -x -b -1) here:

Ok, I solved my problem.
I had to add
amdgpu.cik_support=1 radeon.cik_support=0to my kernel parameters. See here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/AMDGPU

If you think it is a bug in GDM, does it work if you disable the display manager and start X manually? Can you boot to the command line?
Look in the Xorg look for X-specific problems.

Sure thing, will do.

No, in the end I realised it was failing much earlier than it was for the people who were experiencing the GDM bug.
My problem seems to have been that since kernel 4.13 you have to specify which AMD GPU driver you want supported, for cards like mine anyhow, even if you only have one driver installed. The fix was to add the relevant parameters to my bootloader to tell the kernel which driver to use.
