Hello guys… Iv been using Al for a while now and everything was fine. Last night I booted my system and there was nothing but a black screen I used ctrl+alt+f2 to get to the terminal and tried to update and do other stuff that was mentioned in some similar issues by others on the forum. But nothing worked yet. What might be wrong?
It is showing that I have no access.
During the last system update you installed the 1:1.28.0-2 lightdm version, which was broken. You just need tu update:
pacman -Syu
and restart.
try
sudo pacman -Sc or Scc
sudo pacman - Syu
reboot
Either you don’t have an internet connection at all or you can’t resolve URLs.
Check with:
ping 8.8.8.8
^ If that works then try
sudo tee /etc/resolv.conf <<<"nameserver 8.8.8.8"
sudo pacman -Syu
If the ping command doesn’t work then you don’t have an internet connection at all.
To connect with a plain ethernet cable (non-wireless) then use
systemctl start dhcpcd
To connect with wireless try
nmcli device wifi connect "$ssid" "$password"
^ Replace $ssid with the actual name of the access point and replace $password with the actual password.
Once connected then try an update again:
pacman -Syu

What if you run dhcpcd as root? Any error messages?
Please don’t post another screenshot, if you need to post console output then use a pastebin client:
