hi all
I have done a whole system update .
pacman -Syu
and now I can't start the desktop environment.
I tried to delete the xorg.conf and create new 1 and then copy it to /etc/X11
X -configure
but that didn't work.
and when I am trying to create new xorg file I got an error message telling me that the number of screens detected is not matched , I am using a laptop .
I checked ~/.xinitrc and /etc/rc.conf and everything is right.
any suggestion??

when I am trying to create new xorg file through this order
X -configure
I get an error message telling me that the number of created screens doesn't match the number of detected devices. "I am using a laptop BTW".
and I can't log in, I just got the black screen and when launching startx I got the gnome shell session but after 2 seconds of that I got a failure in Gnome and have to log out.

By lagre you dont need this configuration your system should start configuration "on the fly" (mean without main xorg.conf defining device and screen) i used that on my laptop too. Anyway you should revide your config manualy. In case you used nvidia (gc and driver) you should try generete xorg.conf via nvidia-xconfig. Ati have got simillar tools,...
