Here is the error file:
ET 2014 i686
[12574.120] Initializing built-in extension MIT-SCREEN-SAVER
[12574.200] (EE) Failed to load module "glx" (module does not exist, 0)
[12574.201] (EE) Failed to load module "vmware" (module does not exist, 0)

[12574.202] (EE) Failed to load module "fbdev" (module does not exist, 0)

And my laptop is TOSHIBA C600-C75B,I use vmware10 to install the newest archlinux.
What should I do?

If I understand correctly, you are installing Arch Linux in a Virtual Machine. You need a video driver for your hardware, in your case, install xf86-video-vmware

Oh, and welcome to Arch Linux.

good anwer

Does that mean it works? If so, go ahead and edit your first post and prepend [SOLVED] to the thread title. We ask you do that as we have no way to know to know when you regard it as solved

Yes，it has worked.
And I suggest that in the begginer's guid article,the word 'VirtualBox' could be replaced by 'virtual machine',I missed it because I just use VMware and I just didn't install the xf86-video-vmware.
