Xorg freezes on start

clynamen · 2015-01-23 21:18:28

I updated arch two days ago and something did not work. Xorg did not run, due to this error probably:

# Xorg.log
...
(EE) Error systemd-logind returned paused fd for drm node
...

I thought libdrm was related to the error and I downgraded it from 2.4.59-1 to 2.4.48-1

Now when I start Xorg, the screen goes blank and I am not able to do anything (I cannot even use ctrl+alt+1 in order to bring up the terminal)
I realized there is also a backlight issue. When xorg starts, the backlight is set to 0. I can force the backlight to be higher and now all I can see is that the computer is halted at the login manager (I tried both kdm and slim)

This is the last Xorg.log

I was able to login after restarting xorg via ssh
I still do not know the cause of the error, though. I guess I will report a bug regarding this dmesg trace:
