[SOLVED] Window manager shows black screen

Hello everyone! I just installed Arch Linux a few hours ago by following the Arch Wiki and everything worked flawlessly. The thing I'm starting to have problems with is the window manager installation.
First I tried to install bspwm, and since I failed at it, I went with awesomewm. When running xinit, everything that is shown is a black screen with a blinking cursor.

I have installed all the required packages that are listed in the installation steps on the Arch Linux guide. My .xinitrc file does have a exec awesome step right after the last if statement.

These are the contents of the Xorg log file:

Thank you so much for the attention and have a good day.

Re: [SOLVED] Window manager shows black screen

Have you tried something like

 $ startx /usr/bin/awesomewm 

or tried to use a basic display manager to test with?

I tried to run this and xorg appears to hang in the tty.

I also have installed lightdm and enabled the service and same result, a black screen.

Re: [SOLVED] Window manager shows black screen

Thank you so much. I installed optimus-manager and everything started to work, including lightdm. I'm extremely happy right now.
