My system will boot, giving me "OK" for everything it's doing. Then my system gives me a tty login prompt, but continues booting:
gestalt login: [ OK ] Starting Wicd.
[ OK ] Reached target multi-user.
[ OK ] Reached target graphical interface.
So if i just hit enter, it gives me another login prompt, then I can login, but X/fluxbox isn't started or anything.
My ~/.xinitrc:
exec startfluxbox
xset +fp /usr/share/fonts/local
xset fp rehash

ACTIVE = The high-level unit activation state, i.e. generalization of SUB.

JOB = Pending job for the unit.
14 loaded units listed. Pass --all to see loaded but inactive units, too.

Graphical target isn't masked, like I thought it would be after reading this
systemctl status slim.service gives me:

Hopefully this isn't too much information (or completely irrelevant) for what might be a far simpler problem, but I'm just not sure what's going on. It might be worth noting that I only bothered to start switching to systemd today when I had to reboot and slim wouldn't start/get me into my WM(!) This is interesting to me, since I read (somewhere) that as of slim's last version, it would only work with systemd and not consolekit... but when I try:
pacman -Qi slim
It tells me that the last time I last updated/installed slim was November 5 of this year. Any ideas?
EDIT:
Latest nVidia drivers weren't working with my 7xxx integrated GPU. Downgrade to 304xx drivers or use nouveau.

I tried starting X manually (typing in "startx" at the prompt, and I get the following errors:
...
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'nvidia': No such device
Fatal server error:
no screens found
(EE)
Server terminated with error (1). Closing log file.
xinit: giving up
xinit: unable to connect to X server: Connection refused
xinit: server error
It looks like I'm just having problems with my video card, but I have the proprietary nVidia drivers installed and X installed. The systemd wiki page mentions no changes that I would need to make to my xorg or nvidia configuration...

module "nvidia" not loaded...

As of right now,
systemctl list-units --type=target:
graphical.target loaded active active Graphical Interface
And.. I'm not sure what to make of the nvidia module not being loaded. Afaik, there's no service I need to start for it, it's installed, and up until yesterday, it wasn't being a problem.

Stebalien Thanks! That was the problem, after reading your post and realizing I had a GeFroce6 it made complete sense.. removed nvidia-310 and installed nvidia-304xx
ran nvidia-xconfig, rebooted and WAA-LAA X started up no problem. Thanks again.

Ahh, I see. I have a 7 series integrated GPU.
I fixed the problem earlier by just uninstalling nvidia drivers and installing nouveau, but I guess I can go back to the proprietary drivers now. Thanks
