[SOLVED] Auto startx not working while manually writing it works

gginer89 · 2021-03-08 08:10:22

Hello,

I have been following the wiki and trying out many different combinations of script to startx and nothing seems to work. I have auto login working and if i write manually startx on logged in tty1 it starts my WM perfectly but when I try to have auto startx, it brings an error (pasted below), that lasts around 10 seconds BUT it finally ends up starting the WM.

I have an AMD Radeon graphic card, with xf86-video-amdgpu and mesa installed.

Here is my .xinitrc

#!/bin/sh
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ]; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/*; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
exec xmonad

Here is my .bash_profile

#
# ~/.bash_profile
#
[[ -f ~/.bashrc ]] && . ~/.bashrc
if [[ ! $DISPLAY && $XDG_VTNR -eq 1 ]]; then
exec startx
fi

Here is my Xorg log

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

Errors like those suggest you're bitten by the infamous race bug where systemd / udev initialise the videocard too late.
