Startx failing

New install on a hades canyon NUC8i7HNK. I've read over countless pages trying to figure this out. After breaking the system numerous times I am reaching out for help.

dmesg ?

Also remove that 10-screen.conf, it's not the problem, but nonsense. I'd also suggest to remove 20-amdgpu.conf for the moment.

TL;DR : kernel to old

https://ark.intel.com/products/126141/I … -NUC8i7HNK
That's an intel processor with onboard RX Vega .

[ 2664.283] Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-linux-lts root=/dev/mapper/volgroup0-lv_root rw cryptdevice=/dev/nvme0n1p3:volgroup0 quiet

switch to the stock linux kernel, that videochip is way to new for the 4.14.x lts kernel .
