amd gpu xorg dwm

Hi (sorry for bad english)

I just got my first gpu, when I plugged it into my machine, started arch. everything seems to be working fine, but when I log in to the command line
and type in startx
my whole monitor turns black

=====x=====x=====x=====
when I type neofetch | grep "GPU"
the following prints

"GPU: AMD ATI RADEON R7 240/340/ Radeon 540
GPU: Intel HD Graphics"

Re: amd gpu xorg dwm

Do you have any files under /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ that might be forcing the wrong driver?

You should probably share the content of the X.Org log. See https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/List_o … ted_client for a method to share from the console screen.
