[Solved] Startx black screen on nvidia macbook

startx goes to a black screen, Xorg.0.log doesn't report anything unusual (that I noticed). I've been using arch for a few years, but this is my first install on a mac, and my knowledge is rather thin in places, so I apologize if I'm missing something obvious. any help would be appreciated. here's my log. I have nvidia graphics

btw this is the first time I've ever posted, (although these forums have helped me tremendously over the years)
