Username: simon

Looks pretty straight forward and unmistakable for me. No upper cases, no symbols, no numbers in both username and the password.

Oh well, I guess I’ll start configuring startx then. It is not easy for me since I am a complete stranger in the Linux world, used Arch a few years ago, but that was just too comlicated for me.

Thanks anyway

I do have a keyboard with Latin as well as Cyrillic letters on it. That can’t be the problem though, as I set the password to only two numbers. Still, the graphical interface says it is invalid, fails to authenticate, while the password works in terminal.

@fernandomaroto said in Graphical login screen fails to authenticate my password:

Antergos has no configuration for startx

Alright, thanks.
So, the bottom line here is: there is no easy workaround to log in and reach my desktop enviroment?
How could something like this even happen when I am absolutely confident about my password? An update?
I’ll consider configuring startx because it’s either that, or a fresh install

As the title says. I can’t log in from the graphical interface even after going to ctrl+alt+f2 and using the “passwd” command as root to change my user accounts password. Happened after a reboot. The password is correct and the account details work dandy from the terminal, though. It’s just that I can’t start the desktop enviroment, Gnome, from there either. “startx” fails.
Pretty depressing. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks. I should’ve searched in greater detail about this.
So… I’ll just have to wait? No worries, everything’s got a price, even Linux in it’s own ways

Hi,

I installed the system with the default US layout. Now I would like to add Estonian keyboard.
What I did:

“sudo nano /etc/locale.gen”
Uncommented “et_EE.UTF-8 UTF-8”
Saved the changes and closed nano
Then I ran “locale-gen” and I get this:
en_US.UTF-8… done
et_EE.UTF-8…[error] LC_COLLATE: missing `reorder-end’ keyword
done
ru_RU.UTF-8… done

All other inputs generate but Estonian…
Ideas?

Thanks for quick replies. I rebooted and started the process all over again, now the download speed is fine. Guess the automated mirror ranking didn’t do it’s job properly.

Hi,

Can’t help but wonder why is the download speed limited in Cnchi while installing Antergos on my system. I have a 50 down/20 up mbps connection and the fetching process only does at about 40 kbps and taking forever to complete.
Any ideas?
