KDE is not starting maybe after updating system

Hello all,

I was working as usual in my Arch and when I restarted my pc, the system opens the terminal prompt that it is appeared between the OS loading and the KDE login screen. It prompts me to enter the system in console mode. If it helps I installed 2 new font packages(artwiz and ttf vista if it helps).

The dmseg log is at this link(I accessed it from console and uploaded it with within a Live CD).  https://www.dropbox.com/s/9b101z3y91eqh99/dmesg.txt
Please give me some hints to restore my KDE. I have deadlines and I am almost in panic attack sad

Thanks in advance.

Re: KDE is not starting maybe after updating system

NVRM: The NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GT GPU installed in this system is
NVRM:  supported through the NVIDIA 304.xx Legacy drivers. Please
NVRM:  visit http://www.nvidia.com/object/unix.html for more
NVRM:  information.  The 310.19 NVIDIA driver will ignore
NVRM:  this GPU.  Continuing probe...
[    9.327280] NVRM: No NVIDIA graphics adapter found!

Reverse to nvidia 304.xx drivers (installl nvidia-304xx package) because newer one (310.xx) dropped support for GeForce 6 and 7

PS look at this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA
and this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=153082

Tip: There was info about it all over the internet for quite some time. It's easier to maintain Arch if you're interested in Linux in general and reading some news about it (e.g. h-online, lxer.com). Of course  if you have time for it.

Good to hear it works. Please remember to mark your thread as [Solved] by editing your first post and prepending it to the title.

PS another way to be always informed about Arch is subscription to arch-dev-public mailing list
