New problems, old times 32 weeks 1 day ago

Now I figured this was the best place to put it. As I feel you guys are a bit more intelligent than some people. Anyway, so I recently obtained a mint Thinkpad T40. I installed Arch Linux on it, but I seem to have messed it up somewhere.  I have AwesomeWM installed and SLIM login manager.Problem is, when it starts up. It goes to the TTY1, then goes to the Slim screen.

SLiM + XFCE4 systemd problems 37 weeks 3 days ago

I'm using slim with xfce4 too.after running [sudo systemctl enable slim.service] I also had to reinstall slim. [sudo pacman -S slim]everything was back to normal after that.I do still wonder how many other services I'm going to have to start in the future.
