Manjaro XFCE doesn't boot after update

Manjaro ARM
,
#1

Hello

My fresh installation of Manjaro XFCE (PI 4) stopped booting after first update (before that it booted without problems). In the beginning I thought that the image was corrupted but I performed the fresh install and it happened again. Also when I tried to log out only I saw the black screen.

During boot it stops in this moment:

IMG_0002

What should I do now?

Could be a kernel issue.
I updated the kernel in the repo recently.

Try doing a fresh install and update everything but the kernel. Like:
sudo pacman -Syu --ignore linux-rpi4

#3

Unfortunately, it doesn't work.

#4

So you updated everything, except the kernel and it still does not boot?

That means it's not a kernel fault.

Can you login to TTY then?

#5

No, after log in, same things are showing up.

BTW. Yesterday I tried KDE version and after updates there weren’t any problems.

#6

So you get to the login screen, and login with your password, and it just shows this?

What if you press CTRL+ALT+F3?

#7

With this key combination I was able to enter the tty.

#8

Great.
Can you give me the output of:
systemctl status lightdm

and
journalctl -xe

But immediately after that it showed again brcmfmac: power management disabled

#11

Thanks.

Can you try running:
sudo systemctl start lightdm

And then again (assuming it fails) check
journalctl -xe

#12

There are more than 6000 lines so I included only last part. image image

#14

Seems like an Xorg dump.

#15

Okay so what do you suggest me to do now?

#16

The problem is resolved in this thread. You need to downgrade mesa or install the updated mesa-git.
