I have archlinux installed on my Beaglebone Black and I absolutely love it! I have, however, had problems installing Xorg... correction... xfce4 and i3 for the 4D Systems 7 inch LCD touchscreen cape. startx actually works for the basic test wm but I cannot seem to solve the problem to get either xfce4 or i3 to start. The last entry I see in Xorg.log tells me that libfbdirect1.6 cannot be found... I have installed fbdirect1.7... I have tried numerous ways to try to correct the problem. startxfce4, I have tried also to use slim to start i3. I have, so far failed. I admit I am new to archlinux but I have been reading and reading and trying to logically solve this... can anyone confirm that they have had success with Beaglebone Black, 4D Systems 7 inch touchscreen LCD and archlinux?
