Can't load graphics environment
Hello all,
I have been trying to install KDE on Arch Linux but when I start sddm, it turns into a blank screen with a cursor and if I boot with sddm turned on, it won't let me log in.
When I try to use startx, it outputs a message something like no screens found.
Computer specs: uefi boot, K2100m graphics card
Couple of things I have noticed, there is no Intel entry in /etc/X11/xorg.conf, when running 'lspci -vnnn | perl -lne 'print if /^\d+\:.+(\[\S+\:\S+\])/' | grep VGA' both graphics cards (intel and Nvidia K2100m) ends in VGA controller and there is no sddm.conf file after installing sddm.
Here is the xorg.conf file:
Code:

Here are the lines I have used to install x and graphics drivers:
pacman -S xorg-server xorg-server-utils xorg-xinit xorg-twm xorg-xclock xterm
pacman -S nvidia lib32-nvidia-utils
pacman -S mesa xf86-video-intel
The only thing I have done previously is blacklist nouveau from starting as otherwise, the computer won't boot to login. I have installed both the intel and nvidia drivers.
Thanks.
