You need to run journalctl -xe if you are going to have any chance of us helping you.

It often does not help because it's basically a syslog. It may work for a DE, though.

>>61963685
What is your package manager? Did you install a lightdm manager? If so, did you enable it in the configuration?
>>
>>61963717
>>61963685

Sorry, it's called a greeter, make sure you have one installed and enabled.

>>61963717

Installed lightdm, xorg, lightdm-gtk-greeter, i3 with pacman. and changed session-greeter in config. this always worked for me .
>>
Don't use a meme distro or try installing gdm.
>>
>>61963730
Paste your lightdm config somewhere.
>>
>>61963737
Gdm works fine. But I dont like gnome :/
>>
>>61963743

its just the default. only changed #session-greeter to session-greeter=lightdm-gtk-greeter
>>
>>61963763
In the wildcard seat section? That's mainly what I wanted to see.
>>
>>61963763
>>61963773
If so, then for now disable lightdm, and xinit /usr/bin/i3 so that you can run lightdm --test-mode --debug
>>
>>61963613
install gentoo, fgt
>>
>>61963613
Didi you install xserver stuff?
>>
>>61963858
nop

>>61963858
I'm about to have to airplane mode for my flight, so hopefully you got it, it sounds like you forgot an x package though. I think you're looking for "xorg-server-utils"

Anyways, good luck, hope you get it.
>>
>>61963613
Get rid of lightdm, total trash
Either use xinit or SLiM

I've got a perfect solution for you OP: stop using display managers.

>>61963613
>os: Parabola
Stop being a GNU/autist and use a real distro maybe.

Not your personal Support Service.

That being said, I had a similar problem. I think it was a bug in the config. Can't remember shit right now.

It's your own fault for using useless bloat software.

Gotta love the descriptive error messages, all it says is "Something went wrong" in different ways.
