Hi there and welcome to Antergos! Glad to have you with us. If you are interested, we have a section of this Forum dedicated to new users like you (A “Hello Antergos” section). Anyways, back to your problem!

Is it possible that this s**tty Windows overwrites grub?

It looks like it may have overwritten grub or something. Have you made sure to disable fast startup in Windows? This article could probably help with that if you have not done so already.

In addition, I would advise just reinstalling grub and starting fresh with it. To do so, just boot into your live ISO once again, mount all of your Antergos partitions, and then install grub. For specifics, details, and help, just take a look at this article on the Wiki.

Hope this all helps!

Can do!… I think

Would be good to have a new user say hello there…

So are you asking me to say something about being a new user and loving Antergos and all that? I’ve already had my welcoming committee, but if you think I should do it again, I can. I’m just a little confused here…

@newBee said in lag after suspende:

how is your experience with Deepin?

If you are just looking to install another DE until this issue with Gnome is fixed, then simply run these two commands in your terminal:

sudo pacman -S deepin

sudo pacman -S deepin-extra

I have found that it does not conflict with Gnome at all, so long as you install noto-fonts first (before the two deepin commands I just mentioned).

Deepin can be a little buggy, but @Velkerk, @karasu, and I have come up with a solution for that. Whenever a glitchy Deepin update comes along, an Antergos-alert will be issued to let you know (kind of like the antergos-alert about the password vulnerability from a month ago).

Hope this all helped!

These are great instructions! It would be nice to have them available on the Wiki though also…

Same here. I have the same problem under Gnome, but it is definitely just a DE thing. (I have Deepin and KDE both installed also. It’s crazy over here). and none of those have any issues like this.

Do not erase anything just type in the command between splash and resume= !!

Thank you for the clarification, @joekamprad.

I just had the urge to launch out something there: https://forum.antergos.com/topic/7492/you-are-welcome-say-hello-to-the-community

Thank you @joekamprad! You beat me to it. I was just thinking of doing the same thing here!

To recap what @joekamprad has said, (just trying to help clarify things in case you are still somewhat lost)basically reboot your computer and when you get that little menu with choices of what to boot from, (it’s the first screen you see when booting up and is preceded with a message in the top left corner of the screen saying “Welcome to Grub!” right before displaying a screen) just press “e” on your keyboard. Now, the screen should change to one kind of similar to the one you are stuck with. Only thhis one allows you to edit what commands are used to boot up your system. By editting the correct line, it may be possible to fix your problem. To do so, use the Up and Down keys on your keyboard to, well, move up and down the lines of words on the screen. Simply move it down to the line that has these words in it: quiet splash. Now, once your cursor is on that line, just insert this on the end: fsck.mode=force (I could not quit understand what @joekamprad meant here, whether you should delete the line with quiet splash and replace it with fsck.mode=force or just add it on the end. Thus, I would try adding it on the end as it sounds like the safer option. This way, if it doesn’t work, you can always just repeat these steps and delete this added command). Once you have done all of this, simply press F10 on your keyboard. Now, you will automatically begin booting once again with these changes you just made.

Hope this helped!

In addition, have you made sure you have xf86-input-synaptics installed? If not, please install it. If you do, I would suggest uninstalling it and installing xf86-input-libinput in it’s place. After that, just reboot your computer. These programs are basically two different ones used to control the trackpad and mouse. If your current one is not working, I would advise uninstalling it and then installing one of the above mentioned ones. For more information on this, please take a look at this post. (While the issues mentioned in that post are not identical, they are still dealing with the same programs that are causing you trouble. Thus, they could give you some insight into how to solve your current issue).

Hope this helps!

but your picture is very little

If you could just provide one that is a little less blurry, that would be perfect! If not, this one can do. Some words are just a little hard to make out, so I think it might help @joekamprad if it was clearer.

Thanks!
