In case anyone didn't read arch-dev-public, xcb is not enabled in the new cairo-pkg. So awesome will not start.
Here is the mail about it. => http://mailman.archlinux.org/pipermail/ … 17852.html
To fix this problem you can get the PKGBUILD, add ' --enable-xcb' in the './configure'-line and compile again or install cairo-xcb from AUR.
Have fun.

Hmm, awesome and cairo-xcb are on AUR, so....

maybe you want to ask the awesome maintainer if he wants to add cairo-xcb into community
Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

I already asked him and he said he won't add a package that is mostly identical to another one in the repos. Unfortunately, the awesome package was deleted from the aur 'cause someone decided it was uploaded one week early, so the discussion is gone.
