i3 not accessible
I installed the i3 package through pacman, but it will not show up as an option when logging in. I still only have the options GNOME and GNOME Classic.

Re: i3 not accessible
Yes, you need to install xorg-server if you want to run an Xorg window manager. You should not need xinit if you are using a display manager. If you want to know what it is, read the wiki.
