Looks like your graphical desktop isn't loading. Can you boot to a console screen?

Also: how can you not know if you upfated the system?

yeh, i think the problem is with gdm (im using gnome). I boot to a console screen editing the boot command in grub. Looking my journal logs anything caught my attention at first glance.

About the update, sometimes the system updates and i did get any notification lol

ill try to reinstall gnome

Don't use GNOME's packagekit with Arch, it will break stuff eventually.
