Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

Hello there,

I've followed the installation guide and successfully installed a working system. Now to configure my GUI and DE.

I installed all the xorg related packages as stated in the wiki and various other threads and I'm trying to see if Xorg is working before installing my WM and DE.

I have a laptop with AMD/ATI Radeon HD 8550M GPU and 

 xf86-video-ati

as well as 

 mesa

startx gives the folowing /var/log/Xorg.0.log

I really could spend another 3 hours searching around the fora but I guess someone with could give a little help

Thanks !!

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

Did you install ati-dri as well? This is the actual driver.

Thanks for the reply!

Well explicitly no but the reason was the wikis statement :

ATI-Archwiki wrote:

Install the xf86-video-ati package from the official repositories. It provides the DDX driver for 2D acceleration and it pulls in ati-dri as a dependency, providing the DRI driver for 3D acceleration.

Just in case I did a 

pacman -S ati-dri

but ( after a reboot ) nothing changed.

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

As a sanity check, could you verify that you are installing this on bare hardware, and not as a virtual machine.

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

OK, the only other thing I can think of would be to add the radeon module to your kernel:

# modprobe radeon
# mkinitcpio -p linux

Then reboot.

Yes I'm installing on bare hardware indeed

Did what you suggested but still no luck sad

It might be a longshot but, I do not see my GPU in the "supported" list for the  radeon driver as seen in the Xorg.0.log  ... I hope i wont need to resolve to the awful catalyst drivers.

Also note that there's no ~/.xinitrc

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

Well, I have an AMD system, and the suggestions I provided work for me. Can you be more specific about what make and model your graphics card is?

Sorry, that was in your original post.

From my original post

Could there be a "confict" of sorts ?? I mean with my dedicated and the integrated graphics processing ?

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

I'm not sure what kind of system this is exactly, but I think you may refer to the hybrid graphics article: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Hybrid_graphics

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

I think rebootl has got it.

Since Intel is the integrated once, you may also wish to try with the intel driver. This might also require configuring your BIOS/UEFI to use the Intel card only to boot, at least initially.

Re: Xorg -- cannot start (No screens found)

You don't exactly have a choice, Intel-Radeon hybrid is usually muxless, with display output being wired to the Intel card. You can either disable Radeon card and use IGP only, or you can set up a driver for DGP to offload to intergrated card.
Search wiki for PRIME if you want free drivers, and look at wiki article for Catalyst if non-free driver is not a problem.

I got both variants working with my Haswell+Radeon HD8750M, sadly, with free driver, GPU is almost 30°C hotter than with Catalyst.
