Nvidia, voidlinux, sddm.
It doesn’t get past plymouth (I can still get to the console with ctrl alt functionthing ofc)
I’ve tried setting the nvidia-drm.modeset=1 (i did xbps-reconfigure -fa after that) in console thing in /etc/default/grub. I’ve enabled elogind as a service. I obviously did
/etc/sddm.conf.d/rootless-x11.conf
[General]
DisplayServer=x11-user
sddm doesn’t work after that until i change x11-user for x11. I also did
/etc/X11/Xwrapper.config
needs_root_rights = no
allowed_users=anybody
But that one doesn’t really seem to change much. I also removed the execs from some part of the xinit ig.
Shouldn’t you replace “x11-user” with your username?
If you still can’t get it to work, take a look here and try the startx comand on a tty first (a display-mamager is yet another layer of complexity and potential blockers). If you get permission errors, try adding your user to the
videogroup.If you want to do it manually (without some limitations of startx), take a look at sx.
No apparently you don’t need to replace it, if you do it just starts it as root. I can start xfce4 with startxfce4 as user but i can’t start sddm as user from console, only as root. I did try changing it to x11-(username) and just (username) it was the same as just doing x11 or not having the file, although I could also have done something wrong there.
At this point just changing the dm might be easier tbh. Although idk if that woulf actually work. I believe it starts x with the sddm user and not your actual user because, well, you’re not logged in
