Re: [solved] startx displays X wrong at startup (only after switching tty)

Nope totally fine here. Somehow I have been reading in the arch wiki to create such file, but didn't read careful enough in which case.

Thanks for helping (and I'm somewhat new to the arch forum, is there a way to mark a thread solved?)

Ok, thanks.

Oh and just being technically interested which package provides now the driver? The kernel isn't it?

https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … rg-server/

To elaborate: the xorg-server comes w/ a generic driver that operates on the modesetting interface of the kernel module (in your case the i915 module)
