I installed the ASUS TUF FX505DY on Manjaro KDE and adjusted the game resolution in Wine to improve performance. Suddenly, the whole screen turned black. After rebooting, I still saw a black screen. I accessed the command line with Ctrl+Alt+F2 and ran an update with -Syu, but it didn’t fix the issue. The display wouldn’t open, and even after a reboot, I couldn’t get the GUI working. What should I do to restore the interface?

I’d likely start by reinstalling xorg. This command should refresh all the xorg packages on your system. Use sudo pacman -Scc xorg select all, then restart the machine. Edited September 26, 2021 by RONOTHAN## Mistyped the command.

The output of "sudo systemctl status sddm" will show the current status of the SDDM service. "sudo dmesg | grep error" will display any error messages logged by the kernel during boot.

The image of the bios suggests the battery is losing power quickly.

Check the /etc/X11/ directory, particularly xorg.conf.d. There is likely a file named xorg.conf. Manjaro stores its Xorg.log files in a specific location, but the exact path depends on your setup. If the graphics card is behaving oddly, it might be redirecting output elsewhere. Try connecting your monitor to a different port on the card to see if that resolves the issue. If it does, there should be a method to control the output source.
