[SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

[First time posting, sorry if I mess something up in terms of formatting/etiquette!]

Just rebooted for the first time in a fortnight after running "pacman -Syu" several times since and now, instead of Gnome logging in automatically, the boot process looks like it's stopping at:

[OK] Reached target Graphical Interface

I can get to a different tty using ctrl-alt-f2 and log in successfully. I can even ssh in from another machine and see other services have started and are working away.

After looking around the Newbie Corner, I don't think it's a problem with the ownership of / because that's still root:

stat /

I've also seen other users have had success uncommenting the line from /etc/gdm/custom.conf:

WaylandEnable=false

It's already uncommented, I did that months ago because Wayland was being troublesome, and I understand this forces Gnome to try and use Xorg instead. As for /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

So I suspect the problem is Xorg is not starting, but I'm not certain and haven't found a way to fix it. Please can anyone help me get it working again?

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

You appear to have an NVIDIA graphics card with the nouveau driver blacklisted, did you install the proprietary drivers using pacman?

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

Yes, it's an Ion 2 in an old EeeBox. I didn't use pacman, sadly; following the Wiki, I ended up using aur/nvidia-340xx installed with Yay.

I'm not dependant on them though, if using nouveau is a solution that's great. I tried following the Wiki instructions to switch, but may have made a mistake somewhere and ended up reverting back to nvidia-340xx.

Do you also have nvidia-340xx-utils installed?

Did Yay also install the matching DKMS package? Sounds like perhaps your kernel modules haven't been rebuilt after a kernel upgrade.

The nouveau drivers would be simpler to manage, how exactly did you try to switch?

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

I'm all for things being easier to manage smile I followed those instructions, and after a reboot "lspci -v" shows it's using nouveau:

Did you create an X.org configuration file to force the nouveau driver?

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

I created the /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nouveau.conf file from the WIki, is that the one you're talking about? Sorry if I'm being dense here.

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

Yes, that's what I meant.

If you haven't rebooted then try removing the nvidia module.

Are we sure the nouveau driver supports your card? I haven't checked big_smile

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

I think it's supported, the nouveau compatibility matrix lists it under the NV50 family.

I've removed nvidia-340xx and nvidia-340xx-utils now, and restarted again for good measure. It's still stuck at the same place sad The latest Xorg.0.log, if it's any use, is:

Running "lspci -v" still lists nouveau as the kernel driver in use though.

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

Check dmesg on what nouveau thinks about your GPU.

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

OK, if you've removed the proprietary drivers then you no longer need the X.org configuration file so you can remove that to eliminate it as the source of the problem.

If you still can't get to the desktop then try loading a simple window manager without a display manager by running this from a console login:

startx /usr/bin/openbox

Install openbox first if you haven't got it already, obviously.

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

Alright, this is a bit weird, but I'm recording it here for posterity...

First, this is what dmesg had to say about nouveau:

[    9.589511] fb0: switching to nouveaufb from VESA VGA

[   11.112323] [drm] Initialized nouveau 1.3.1 20120801 for 0000:02:00.0 on minor 0

Then I installed openbox as instructed, ran "startx /usr/bin/openbox", and had it exit on me with another "No screens detected error". I'm sorry, I didn't capture it all to show it here, I just restarted out of frustration. After logging in with a different tty, I ran "startx /usr/bin/openbox" and got a blank screen with a mouse cursor. Progress! Nothing responded, but still progress. I ssh'd into the machine, ran "sudo killall openbox", and got it back to the console. Then I restarted it again (I can't help it, the little voice in my head says "Have you tried turning it off and on again" a lot) and... Gnome started and logged itself in.

I have no idea what just happened!

So, I guess I should work out how to mark this closed solved. Thanks Head_on_a_Stick & Seth, I really appreciate it!

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

Your GNOME is likely to run on wayland and not xorg now. To fix your xorg remove your custom configurations and {lib32-,}nvidia-340xx-utils

Re: [SOLVED] Stuck at "Reached target Graphical Interface" after updating

I hadn't thought of that... running "echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE" while logged in I get "x11", so the setting in /etc/gdm/custom.conf is still working smile I've removed the other packages too, thanks!
