[Solved] i3wm and Mate - logging in via GDM - log in and out

Hi all,

Yesterday evening I was playing around for changing the brightness of my Lenovo T430 laptop and adding XF86 brightness keys with light from the AUR. That didn't work due to an error with the compilation, so I removed the light-git folder and today when trying to log on to i3wm and Mate desktop I can see that GDM tries to load i3 and Mate, but then after 1 second or so drops me back to the GDM login manager.

Funnily enough GNOME works (the ugly one with the Activities on top and the bar on the left)

I checked my i3 config file and deleted the entries for the light backlight keybindings in the i3 configuration. Apart from that I had updated my packages last night as I do so once every week. I'm at a loss here.

Installed are:
i3wm
mate
mate-extra
xorg
GDM


It worked fine up until last night and quite frankly apart from the change at the i3 config file to enter the key bindings for light nothing was changed in the file. I fear that I removed a dependency by accident. I also reinstalled i3wm and it removed i3-gaps (I can't remember having installed that!) but it still fails to log me in to i3 and the Mate desktop.

I'm sure one of you might hopefully have the answer. I'm at a loss. Please let me know what config files you need or other information. I'll be able to provide those for you.

i3 config

# Should you change your keyboard layout some time, delete
# this file and re-run i3-config-wizard(1).`

Re: [Solved] i3wm and Mate - logging in via GDM - log in and out

Turned out I checked the xorg.0 file and there was an Intel module error.

I then used the arch wiki to grep for the VGA|3D output and found my Intel i915 chioset and installed xf86-intel package or so

That fixed the issue. I must have removed it by accident.
