 Posted: Sat Dec 29, 2018 8:24 pm Post subject: X-Server doesn't start with OpenRC |
 |
|
Hello everybody,
I have freshly installed a GNU / Linux with OpenRC as init system. Unfortunately, there are problems as soon as I install xorg-server or a displaymanager.
The NetworkManager interferes with the login process by writing its error message in the login field.
Pressing any key and confirming with Enter enables the input.
Furthermore, it is not possible to start the X server. Does anyone have an idea what it is?
Screenshot attached:

Many thanks in advance  |

Phoen7x,
Welcome to Gentoo.
Baby steps. lets reduce the problem space a little.
| Code: | | emerge -1 twm xterm xclock |
will get the defaut Xorg programs installed.
Remove xdm from the default runlevel
If you have a ~/.xinitrc, rename it, so its not found.
The startx command will start three xterms, an analogue clock all wrapped up in twm.
If that works, Xorg and your graphics driver is good.
Well the graphics driver might lack 3D acceleration but its a big step in reducing the problem space.

Thank you for the answers. I'd like to take a step back and fix the problem with the ModemManager. Why does this bother the login and what should these error messages tell me? The device seems to be the onboard network card.
A directs me to the xfce-desktop. Maybe the ModemManager stops the start with OpenRC?
Edit:
the Xorg logfile:

Phoen7x,
There is no problem with Modem Manager and the login prompt. Its a feature.
There are lots of things happening at the same time when your system boots.
Many of them dump messages to the console. The console shows them in the order that they arrive in the console buffer.
The order is not forced.
It just happens that on your system the login prompt appears before network manager has finished.
It won't make any difference to your login. Just ignore the network manager output.
Never run a GUI as root. Eventually, something nasty will happen.
-- edit --
Your Xorg log says | Code: | [ 191.871] (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
[ 191.871] (==) Matched modesetting as autoconfigured driver 1
[ 191.871] (==) Matched fbdev as autoconfigured driver 2
[ 191.871] (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 3
[ 191.871] (==) Assigned the driver to the xf86ConfigLayout
[ 191.871] (II) LoadModule: "intel"
[ 191.872] (WW) Warning, couldn't open module intel |
That suggests that you don't have the Xorg intel driver configured and built.
Your kernel is in good shape.
| Code: | | [ 191.907] (II) modeset(0): using drv /dev/dri/card0 |

Phoen7x,
You should be able to ignore the extra text.
Your username will appear somewhere but it doesn't matter where.
If it helps, don't look at the display at all.

Hello NeddySeagoon,
I suspect we are talking past each other.
My main problem is that the system does not boot into the XFCE desktop / LightDM loginscreen, but stops at the error message:
| Quote: | | nm-dispatcher: req:5 'dhcp6-change' [enp0s25]: start runnig ordered skripts... |
from the obove image and does not respond to any input.
If I remove by means of | Code: | | rc-update del xdm default |
, it is nevertheless possible to start xfce4 manually.
I installed the missing drivers according to log, but this does not change anything. |

nm is network manager, you need to see what req 5 corresponds to,
I don't use network manager myself, so can't help on that.
But from the message it looks like something to do with ipv6

I have already tested ipv6 to disable. Somehow, he doesn't take over the settings.
Is there an alternative under OpenRC? Otherwise I am always called a systemd network service, but systemd i doesn't want to use. |

It gives me one IPv4 and two (2a02 and fe80:) IPv6 addresses.
I've installed syslog-ng-openrc and added to default runlevel. Now nm-dispatcher doesn't chrashes the loginscreen but it hangs very large (more than one minute) on nm-dispatcher: req:5
[/url]https://forum.artixlinux.org/index.php/topic,42.0/prev_next,next.html
if i added xdm to default runlevel, it does nothing more after nm-dispatcher...

Post the output of ifconfig.
Is the lo interface showing one of the ipv6 addys.
Since you have ipv6 addys showing that's causing dhcp6 to try and activate, which seems to be what's causing the delays.

Do you need ipv6?
if not you might try disabling it and see if the problems don't go away.
I picked the following hint from some reading in the past, not sure if it's accurate nowadays, it's supposed to disable all ipv6 interfaces.
sysctl -w net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6=1
or add to /etc/sysctl.conf for permanent disable.

No, I want IPv6 to disable.
But it isn't possible.
I've testet into /etc/sysctl.conf
net.ipv6.conf.all.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.enp0s25.disable_ipv6 = 1
copied this also into /etc/sysctl.d/40-ipv6.conf
added
noipv6rs
noipv6
into /etc/dhcpcd.conf, but ipv6 persits aktive... |

What does "emerge -pv dhcp" return?
There is also the possibility of turning off ipv6 for the network modules (see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/networking/ipv6.txt) or if networking is built-in then a command line option.
Edit to add: never mind on the emerge, I didn't realize that you were running arch.
Not sure how to help you further in that case, I'm not that familiar with arch and how they create their programs with certain options.

Anon-E-moose,

Moved from Desktop Environments to Unsupported Software as this is an Arch issue.

It's not an Archlinux its's Parabola GNU/Linux-libre OpenRC Edition. But moving is fine.
In each forum my problem is ignored because my system does not fit into the scheme.
With systemd these problems do not exist, only with OpenRC. |

Do you have an /etc/rc.conf file? and if so is rc_parallel set to yes?

OpenRC isn't even Gentoo's project… |

Phoen7x,
emerge wgetpaste, if you don't have it.
Reboot and put your dmesg onto a pastbin site.
then post the link you get back.
Being in Unsupported Software doen not mean you will not get support.
Its a warning to others that what they find here may not work on Gentoo.
