Issues with opening apps after installing

ArchMainnia · 2022-02-24 01:29:19

First of all I'm new here so I hope I do this correctly

Iv tried this on multiple installs
It started with the new version of arch that was released,I updated my old system and I could not open any apps from gui or terminal when I try to launch from terminal it just gets hung i only have 2 apps installed so far on my new install and both are doing this steam and Firefox when I reboot it works tell I open more then one app

I'm on the latest update
De is kde
I used install script on the new install but old one was done the manual way

Machine specs
Asus G15 advantage edition
5900hs with integrated graphics
6800m

Steam actually gives me a little bit of output witch is

Running steam on arch rolling 64-biy
Steam-runtime is enabled automatically
Steam runtime is up to date!
Steam clients requirements are satisfied
Max open descriptors set to 9216

No more after thay just get stuck there

I open Firefox then when steam opens everything closes

Welcome to the forum @ArchMainnia!

It's a little hard to understand properly what you have done so far, so please correct me if I get this wrong:

You had a machine with Arch already installed
You then booted from a freshly downloaded Arch installation image
You then ran an installation script to update the old Arch install

If this is right, I would recommend you start over, using the proper Installation guide, because it's going to be hard to help you without knowing what the installation script did. Also, if you go slow and take it easy, then the Arch installation guide is quite good, and not so hard to follow - and you will get much better control over your computer.

If, on the other hand, I'm wrong, and you went about it differently, then it would be much easier to help if you could provide some more detail on what exactly has been done to your computer

ArchMainnia · 2022-02-24 22:28:34

This is incorrect

i had arch installed
i updated arch using sudo pacman -Syu
it started to give me issues and i could not open any apps so i reinstalled thinking that i did something wrong'
the brand new install of arch did the same issue after installing steam and firefox

i would open firefox normaly then when steam openes firefox and steam would close instantly

sorry about the miscommunication

That sounds like transient hostname issues, what's your output of

hostnamectl
sudo journalctl -b

when this happens? https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_o … n_services

ArchMainnia · 2022-02-25 02:46:14

hoastnamectl: https://pastebin.com/77MZ8anm
sudo journalctl -b: https://pastebin.com/8nrp2TkY

i hope that helps

Something went wrong with the journalctl output, there is only 27 lines of it. The rest of the journal is missing.
Edit:
Please post the output of

find /etc/systemd -name \*.service -type l -a -xtype f -printf %f\\n

You seem to be running plasma on wayland and

Feb 26 05:10:39 arch kernel: amdgpu 0000:03:00.0: [drm] Cannot find any crtc or sizes
Feb 26 05:10:39 arch pulseaudio[1907]: X11 I/O error handler called
Feb 26 05:10:39 arch pulseaudio[1907]: X11 I/O error exit handler called, preparing to tear down X11 modules

smells pulseaudio/xwayland related.

=> Does plasma on X11 work as expected?

Iv not had any issues with plasma on x11 except the apps closing since this new update it was running perfect for about a year should I try reinstalling without pulseaudio?

You are currently NOT running plasma on X11 but on wayland… so maybe try whether it still works as expected on X11.
You'll probably not be able to install plasma w/o PA.

Ok I will try switching them when I get home top left Connor right?

seth · 2022-02-26 16:28:12

Assuming you're asking whether the session selection feature of your DM is on the top left corner: i've no idea. It's themeable and also I don't use SDDM.

seth · 2022-02-26 17:02:32

You probably don't.
