Xorg does not start automatically but does manually

Candroidgenie · 2020-12-19 12:00:03

When I start my computer the boot process stops after network manager finds a network, according to the verbose boot output. However, if I boot into multi-user.target and then run systemctl start gdm, everything works fine.
The only thing I have done out of the ordinary was I recently (today) installed a new hard drive and copied the data off my old hard drive and updated fstab accordingly. When doing so I accidentally copied thing to the OS drive rather than the new drive maxing out the OS drive, however, I fixed that. A few reboots later Xorg would not start as described above.

I hope I've attached the relevant system logs.
Xorg: https://pastebin.com/r40BkUF8
dmesg: https://pastebin.com/tTdcuZhR

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Edit: I'm running a 5700xt with I believe, the AMDGPU drivers, not AMDGPU-PRO

Your Xorg is not healthy. There is no indication that Xorg attempts to load AMDGPU. In fact, Xorg cannot load any driver and bails out.

(EE) Device(s) detected, but none match those in the config file.

What does your config look like?

From the symptom description, try https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … _KMS_start

@tucuxi, this isn't a config issue:

[     4.027] (EE) open /dev/dri/card0: No such file or directory

I only found the following. Every other place listed in the wiki here empty. In addition when I ran Xorg :0 -configure I got the following: https://pastebin.com/pRKZWvwQ

The only thing I can think of is that I cleared the Pacman and yay old package cache which I thought shouldn't affect current packages. I know for sure I haven't personally changed anything to do with drivers for about half a year.

With in /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d there are the following three files:
- 10-amdgpu.conf
- 10-quirks.conf
- 40-libinput.conf

10-amdgpu.conf:

	Identifier "AMDgpu"

Um, that's kinda out of my depth. Are you suggesting I recreate initramfs or put the GPU in early KMS start?
As to the link you had:
1. Did I use Pastebin wrong?
2. I know how to boot into single user or multi user mode.
3. I know for sure windows fast boot is disabled, along with every other fast boot feature and every other windows feature.
4. ~/.xinitrc and /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc are both missing.

The links are my signature ;-)

Yes, you'll have to edit mkinitcpio.conf and then regenerate the initramfs to include amdgpu.
