Re: [SOLVED] X server does not start

So, is there any remaining issue?

Maybe due to autocorrection there was misunderstanding, read my last post, I have the same issue, no x server running

Re: [SOLVED] X server does not start

Now I rebooted and tried to log in, x server can be initiated on tty1 and tty2, from tty5 I login w/o problem.

Please elaborate on this and use deepl.com for that.

The X server can only be initialised on tty1 and tty2, if I login from tty5 for example, the login is successful but the X server is not initialised( due to settings in .zprofile $XDG_VTNR -le 2). And when I login with tty5 as a user and not root, I get this message

tas278-hda i2c-TIAS2781:00: tasdevice_prmg_load: Firmware is NULL
tas278-hda i2c-TIAS2781:00: DSP bin file not loaded

So? I dont understand the problem here? Can you still just "startx" on TTY5?

snd-soc-tas2780 is your soundcard and doesn't anything to do with anything here.

$XDG_VTNR -le 2 does not allow me to do so.
Even if I change tty from 1 to 2, I still can not log in
Only changes after nvidia drivers downgrade are that there is no more XID and no blinking screen with kernel parameters if log in is done with -keeptty option for X server

Re: [SOLVED] X server does not start

What is your native tongue?

Am I so bad in English?
Native is Ukrainian

If it is not nvidia drivers what can it be else?

Re: [SOLVED] X server does not start

Чи то ви, чи то я, у мене, безумовно, виникають проблеми з тим, щоб донести до вас певну інформацію.

Обмеження in.zprofile не має сенсу.
Ви, звичайно, можете увійти в систему і вручну запустити "startx".

Even if I change tty from 1 to 2, I still can not log in

Ви намагаєтеся розпочати другий сеанс X11?

Whether it's you or me, I certainly seem to have issues conveing some information to you.

The restriction in.zprofile is meaningless.
You can certainly still login and manually run "startx".

Even if I change tty from 1 to 2, I still can not log in

Are you trying to start a second X11 session?

Re: [SOLVED] X server does not start

I ended up reinstalling and everything worked, I don't know what the cause was before that as I had reinstalled the system 3 times before and the X server didn't want to work. Thank you so much @seth for your time and help!
As for the kernel settings I added the following https://termbin.com/iwkq
