startx unable to open WM session without a Display/Login Manager

pritam_poseidon · 2021-07-13 17:25:38

Hello everyone this is my first post on forums. Firstly i want to mention that i am using a VM (VirtualBox) during this process.
distro env : virtualbox-guest-utils installed, VGA = VMware SVGA graphics, EFI boot

My problem :
I have installed arch using the arch wiki it went all good. Then installed XOrg (xorg, xorg-xinit, xterm).
Steps i did to startup xorg (startx)
1. $ cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc (kept the default config with 3 xterm windows)
2. $ startx (correctly opens 3 xterm windows in twm)
3. $ sudo pacman -S qtile (using/installing qtile as my WM of choice)
4. $ nano ~/.xinitrc (change default config to : exec qtile)
5. $ startx (starts and closes immediately)
6. $ qtile (ERROR: $DISPLAY not set)
7. $ startx (starts and closes immediately, obviously qtile giving error $DISPLAY not set)
THE QTILE SESSION NEVER STARTED BUT DEFAULT ~/.xinitrc (default one, with twm and exec xterm ) WORKS FINE

How i fixed it :
1. $ sudo pacman -S lightdm lightdm-webkit2-greeter (install a display/login manager)
2. $ sudo nano /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf (configured lightdm as directed in archwiki)
3. $ sudo systemctl enable lightdm (start lightdm service)
4. $ reboot
5. shows a login window (as expected),
6. enters credentials > LOGS IN to qtile *O*
SO IT SEEMS, IT NEEDS A 3rd PARTY DISPLAY/LOGIN MANAGER (i don't want that X()

What I want : I just want to use startx at tty to keep my distro as minimal as possible. (turn ON > tty login > tty shell > $ startx > runs qtile)
i watched a lot and many people were able to do this using startx.... but those were very old posts/videos (3-6 yrs.) i don't know what is the problem here.

What I have tried :
1. using ~/.bash_profile to start startx just after login (same error as same as that of step 7)
2. checking for $XDG_VTNR, $DISPLAY, tty and then startx in ~/.bash_profile (same as step 7)

i'm just a newb any logs you need please do mention commands

Please post the contents .xinitrc as it is now , Xorg.0.log and the output of dmesg. Xorg.0.log will be in either ~/.local/share/xorg/ or /var/log.
See the tip box from pastebin to post the outputs from the console.

current ~/ directory

current ~/.xinitrc

Xorg.0.log
http://ix.io/3sVR

dmesg
http://ix.io/3sVQ

output of : $ startx
http://ix.io/3sVS

output of : $ qtile
http://ix.io/3sVV

Edit:
also just want to mention, this problem ($DISPLAY not set) is not only specific to qtile, openbox also did gave the same error.

The X11 server runs for a couple of seconds and then terminates cleanly.

Smells like https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Xinit#xserverrc (re-use the active VT)

Edit:
Though

systemd-logind: took control of session /org/freedesktop/login1/session/_31

Can you please post the xorg log from a DM activated session?

as you have asked, i installed LightDM as the DM (as directed in archwiki)

$ sudo pacman -S lightdm lightdm-webkit2-greeter

editted : /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf
[Seat*]
user-session=qtile
greeter-session=lightdm-webkit2-greeter

$ sudo systemctl enable lightdm

after logging in successfully to qtile session using LighDM,
the Xorg.0.log (/var/log/Xorg.0.log because ~/.local/share/xorg/Xorg.0.log is still the old one) : -
http://ix.io/3sWR

Try the xserverrc still.
If it doesn't work, create /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config containing a line "needs_root_rights = yes" - the vmware driver might not support rootless X11

pritam_poseidon · 2021-07-14 12:18:22

I have had already tried xserverrc as you had mentioned earlier, didn't work.
using Xwrapper.config also didn't work
both of them gives result similar to http://ix.io/3sVS

EDIT:
if this helps : i have tried using the

$ xrdb ~/.Xresources 
xrdb: no such file or directory (ofcourse there is none by default)
xrdb: Can't open display ' '

Not "similar", please post the exact Xorg logs.
Running Xorg w/ root permissions *cannot* produce a similar log (and also you linked the output, which is rather worthless here)

Edit: also remove xf86-video-vesa to unclutter the log a bit.
Edit #2: xrdb requires a running X11 server and is irrelevant itr.

using startx with root (starts twm with 3 xterm windows) produces /var/log/Xorg.0.log :

Do NOT! run X11 as root - the XWrapper.config thing makes Xorg run suid - even if you call startx as your regular user.

If the /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config thing had worked, the log should™ be in /var/log/

stat /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config
cat /etc/X11/Xwrapper.config

make xinitrc run "exec xterm" (but not twm) and then try to run either qtile or openbox from that xterm.
Does that work?

pritam_poseidon · 2021-07-14 13:18:28

no it didnt work...
the xterm did open but

$ qtile start
segmentation fault (core dumped)

That's actually a very good thing.
Check "coredumpctl"
