Hey again. Disabling sddm takes me to a text console for login (which is what I wanted, yay!).
However, after logging in, I would like to have the “normal” desktop, in which i3wm is in charge. Typing startx
into the tty1 text console results in error,
xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O (Operation not permitted)
...
Internal error: Could not resolve keysym XF86FullScreen
...
xinit: connection to X server lost
and I am back at the text console.
A quick internet search suggested me to do sudo chmod u+x /usr/bin/xinit
which seem to alleviate the “Operation not permitted” part of the error, but still kicks me back to the text console.
Could you help me start the X (and hence the i3wm) in this setup?
