Cinnamon crashes when logging in
I have the latest Arch install and I am using the "nvidia" package from the repository as my driver. When I log in using LightDM Cinnamon says that it has crashed and is in fallback mode. I press OK so it reloads Cinnamon but it keeps crashing. If I go into a terminal, log in, and run "sudo pkill X", Cinnamon restarts and runs fine. What could the problem be?

Re: Cinnamon crashes when logging in
I actually fixed it by changing the greeter to the webkit one. I have since then downloaded GDM which looks better to me.
