Removed Nouveau, installed Nvidia, black login screen

Hi there!
Seems like I was just here yesterday... But seriously, it's coming together.
Today I hooked up my second monitor and tried to get the "one big monitor" effect with noveau, but it wasn't recognizing my setup. I've had success with installing proprietary nvidia stuff before, so I did the
"# pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils"
after removing "nouveau-dri" and the "libgl" business. I did all that from the bash login screen (which I'd like to keep as the first screen, instead of booting directly into GUI/DE). After I rebooted, like the guide says to do, the bootloader went through fine, but then sat at a black screen. After a couple of hard reboots I tried to just type root, password, and kdm, even though I couldn't see anything on the screen. That worked to get me into the DE. Problem is, that sucks and I have no idea how to get my bash login screen back, or what I did to lose it. Anyone know where to look or what to do? I've not found any info on the forum, or via google... Thank you once again!

My video card is an Nvidia GEForce 9400 GT. There are no "EE" errors in the Xorg.0.log, a couple of fails, to do with APCI, and nothing in the errors.log or daemon.log (whether or not I should look in those for this issue, I'm still learning. I did indeed run "nvidia-xconfig" as root. Not sure what I'm missing. It does now recognize both monitors after I blindly root login and launch kdm, but ya know... Below is the var/log/xorg.0.log in case this means anything to anyone out there... I'm thinking about doing a fresh install now that I know a few more things.
I installed the entire kdm-meta package and I only really want to install a terminal and do the rest of it that way, if possible. If it's any pennance for my blatant naievete, I am having fun learning from these mistakes! Thanks for the input non-noobs!
Cheers!

Black Login Screen

When I turn on my macbook it loads up as normal until it gets to the user screen. At the user screen the computer freezes for about twenty seconds then the screen goes black and a line of text appears reading <Darwin/BSD (Robs-Computer.local) (console)> and directly underneath it says <Login:>
When I type anything to the login spot two lines of text appear both reading <The Date The Time robs-computer netinfod local[ 31 ]: Cannot lookup child> then directly under that it reads <Password:>
But I can't type anything into the password field. All i can do is hit enter and the screen loads back to the user screen just to start the whole thing again in a viscious cycle of mind numbing madness. If anyone out there can give me some advice it would be a godsend.
P.S. And even if the computer would let me reinstall the software and start from scratch, thats not an option because I have files on that computer that absolutely cannot be erased. Yes I know I should have backed up all the info but i'm just stupid so i'm here asking for help

Black login screen, cannot start up

Hi everyone
im desperate for a little help. My computer will not start up. when i press the power button the white apple scren comes on then the dvd drive begins spinning very loudly. does it for a good 10 min....it then freezes on a blue screen for another 15 min...then goes to a black screen asking for login details. even when i do that it still wont log in stays at the blue and black screens. i dont know how to be able to reinstall everything because i thionk i have to reformat it again. but obviously i cant because i cannot load up the "install disc 1 " dvd.
Any suggestions at all please????

Yes it could be a hardware issue, when did you purchase your Imac? Is it a Rev A or Rev B?
but this only happens when i begin to download bittorrents, as long asi dont do that nothing has happened, its only what happens when i do begin to download again.
TIP...I am unfamiliar with "bittorrents" I don't download them, but ANY thing that makes MY Imac quit working I quite doing it! :~))
If you are looking for music downloads for Mac try Acquisition which can be found on VersionTracker.They use Mpeg format instead of bittorrents.

Hi,
I got the same phenomenon on my testing machine.
Every time when finished update install, the logon screen won't load immediately, I usually tab on the keyboard along with the mouse to call the screen back.
You may also try to use the Ctrl + Alt + Del and recheck this issue, the next time.
This might be caused by the compatibility between the driver and the OS, you may submit this issue throug hWindows Feedback Tool, and wait for the new update.

Create Recovery Discs from your HDD, then load them onto the SSD.
Hope that helps,

Hi Emma,
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your Thunderbolt display is just showing a black screen when you boot your computer. The following article should be of help in troubleshooting your display.

Black Screen after W7 logo before login screen - HELP!

Hi,
When I start windows, after Windows 7 start logo, I get a black screen for about 20-40
seconds, then a black screen with cursor for around 1 and a half minute and then I get the login screen, thats around after 3minutes.
I am facing this problem for quite some time now, I also did a clean windows installation
after wiping out harddisk using diskpart. But it was of no use, still I get that annoying Black Screen at startup and I think my laptop is a bit slow too. When
I open windows in safe mode, I get the Black screen there too but for like 35-45 seconds.
I also ran Dell PC Checkup, everything is fine.
I'd be really grateful if someone helps me find out what exactly is wrong with my laptop
and how can I get rid of this black screen, thanks!
*Windows is up to date, all drivers are installed perfectly.

Hi，
Did you make any changes recently before this issue? Have you looked into the event viewer for any related recorded information? regarding to reinstallation, are you using a offical installation disc or an image customized by yourself? Any 3 rd party seervices
lauched on startup?
Unplug all the external devices, except mouse and keyboard and then restart the computer.
You can use this small tool Autoruns to check what is launched on a startup

My HP pavilion dv7 laptop turns on, but the login screen is skewed down and to the right. I can see the windows logo while logging in. Once I log in, the screen turns completely black. I also am able to see the screen when I log in via safemode, however it is still skewed down and to the right. Please help.

Hello, @mtamcsin
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that the Windows login screen is skewed. I would like to help you on correcting this.
Could you please provide the following information:
Model and product numbers for your notebook.
Currently installed operating system.
Did this occur after any updates or changes to the notebook?
I look forward to your reply.

Win 7/Z580: Black screen on boot up, before login screen?

Win 7/Z580: Black screen on boot up, before login screen?
=======================================
I find some interesting posting in this forum. Thanks for keeping this forum to help windows/Lenovo community. I like to pick up the brain of this forum to resolve the black screen issue. I am not sure, whether it caused by virus. I use Microsoft Security Essentials. I am not able to run this in command prompt.
I started my laptop this morning & login screen showed up. Once I entered my login credentials, I heard the sound that usually plays once a login is successful, but I ended up with a black screen. After this occurred, I had to hold down the power button to manually shut down the computer. Once I started it up again, I was prompted to do a system repair, which eventually ended up with all successful outcomes, but I now have a black screen with a cursor before the login screen now. I have no idea what caused this to happen. My laptop is a Lenovo Ideapad Model Z580 (500 GB HD, 6GB RAM).
I am not able to get into safe mode or any other mode, which all leads to a black screen described above. I am able to use the "Repair Your computer" tools after pressing F8 during booting only . All other options leads to Black screen with cursor in the middle
Last Known Good Configuration leads to same
Enable Low Resolution Video (640x480) leads to same My Z580 is not responding to CTRL+ALT+DEL Windows Logo keys as well.
**** I tried SAFE Mode. It loaded couple of drivers and paused at CLASSPNP.SYS load. It went to Black screen with cursor at center.
I am able to invoke control pannel from Command prompt of working PC by typing control.
Z580 PC is not responding to control from command prompt (under Repair Your computer) either.
Z580 is able to use the "Repair Your computer" tools after pressing F8 during booting .
Under local user login it provided Start Repair option. As I pick this option, I got the following. Problem signature
Startup repair offline

Under Admin user login, it provided system recovery options. It is not picking up the recovery point created a while ago.
Windows Memory Diagnostics is not launching and shows a black screen without cursor.
I am able to get into command prompt. I tried the following there.
I am not able to run cmd as admin

Help! bootcamped window pro 7 ok BUT driver / setup flash drive seemed to correctly install drivers, nvidia etc etc BUT on windows login screen i have no mouse or keyboard , have plugged in logitech usb mouse and keyboard still no good please help

Please can somebody help me with this.
i cannot get any mouse or keyboard input on my login screen after bootcamping windows 7 pro.
i used a correctly formatted drive for the driver downloads, they seemed to install but now i have no input method to login to wondows7.
all is fine in osx apple wireless mouse keyboard magicpad ok
windows cant login due to no input devices.
have connected logitech mouse keyboard still nothing.
please help!
thanks in advance

1. I have tried copying the Keyboard/Trackpad/Mouse drivers to the $WinPEDriver$ directory with mixed success on a 2012 MBP.
2. My experience is based on a 2013 rMBP. You may be able to use an Apple USB Keypad/Mouse to better success.
3. See http://www.macworld.com/article/2460820/macbook-pro-mid-2014-review-minor-update -offers-slightly-better-cpu-performance.html for HW differences between the two machines.
4. If you have access to a 2013 rMBP, I can suggest trying to build the USB on that and working with the USB to see if you can make it install Windows. the rMBP 2014 and rMBP 2013 have the same HW, except some CPU changes. You can also try building the USB at the nearest Apple store, if possible.
5. There is a section in AutoUnattend.xml, which is supposed to install all drivers in $WinPEDriver$ (see this http://support.microsoft.com/kb/2686316 )

but I suspect your going to first have to create a data recovery drive
Create a data recovery, undelete boot drive
to get your data off the machine,
then do a #20 to eliminate the bad sectors as that's why your getting the "pinwheel" it's getting a delay reading from the drive, right when your trying to log in too, what a bad spot for it to happen.

Login Help - Login screen comes up but nothing happens when I hit "login"

Hi,
I am a total newbie to APEX and have limited experience with Oracle in general, so please, be kind ;)
I am attempting to get APEX installed with 10g Express. I had installed 10g Express and it seemed to work fine. I went through the APEX install process and now when I go to my Database Homepage I see the login screen prompting for workspace, username, and password. I plug in my information and when I hit the "login" button nothing happens at all. No browser activity, no error, as if the button is just dead. I can connect to my DB via SQLPLUS and the oracle service and listener are running. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Installed on a windows x64 server.
Tanks & Best Regards,
jim

This is the exact problem I had.
There are no errors in the log file, but no images either. I'm using the embedded HTTP server in the database (11g)
I found in the installation guide that the script to load the images is:
apex_epg_config.sql
It takes 1 parameter, the ORACLE_HOME. The example in the guide seems to indicate that it's looking for a temporary directory, but after trying that and failing, a look through the code showed that it was looking for the home directory. After running that, the images show up and it seems to work.
Now all I have to do is remember what I gave it for the admin password!
Thanks - JR

Install failed due to loss of power and Yosemite will now not go past login screen. Help!

I recently tried to install OS X Yosemite. unfortunately during the install my laptop was unplugged and the installation failed mid way through. Each time I start my mac I get to login screen and after logging in get an error message and told to restart and try again - which does not resolve the issue. Guest login do work to the safari screen. Any help hugely appreciated.
The error message reads:
You need to restart your computer. Hold down the power button until it turns off, then Press the power button again.

Try booting into the Safe Mode using your normal account. Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up after waiting 10 seconds. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear and again when you log in. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application un-installer. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don’t do them all at once.

Help needed in making a login screen

hi all,
i need to make a login screen in flash in which a user enters
a password and username and both are checked from an xml file. i
need your help in making it. could anyone redirect me to some
tutorial or if anyone can post the code here, i would really be
grateful to you. thanks,
gaurav

First you need to load the xml file that contains the list of
user names and passwords into variables using actionscript.
Use this tutorial.
http://www.actionscript.org/tutorials/intermediate/XML/index.shtml
Then compare the value entered by the user with the list of
usernames and passwords.
But be aware:
1>All the processing happens on the client machine
2>Extremely insecure if you are after a secure login.
3>and when you update the XML file it won't necessarily
take effect immediately on all the user's machines as they may be
using a cached version of it.
Ideal method is to use server side validation script using
asp, asp.net, jsp or php.
