Thank you for your guidance, I have updated my system with the new 66!
However, there are 3 2 caveats I have noticed upon rebooting, which may be related to my personal error:
- Autologin no longer works, and I need to manually type my username, password and then run "startx" to get into XFCE.
- (RESOLVED) In Thunar, I am no longer able to eject USB drives, nor click to mount them, and I am told "not authorized to perform operation".
- The Network Manager Applet in the XFCE tray states that "networking is disabled" and that "NetworkManager is not running", despite my internet working fine on wired Ethernet (e.g. pacman updates and the browser). I lose internet access if I unplug the cable, since I can't use wireless if NetworkManager isn't working.
Just wondering if anyone might know what I have done wrongly?
Below are my trees, if it helps.

My .xsession file in my home looks like this.
"66-all up" is deprecated, but I am not sure how to change it, or if it's even related to any of my issues, since switching it with "66 tree start" didn't resolve issue 1 nor 3:
list=( $(ls -A1 /home/hyperspace/.66/conf/svscan@hyperspace) )
for i in ${list[@]};do
var=( $(</home/hyperspace/.66/conf/svscan@hyperspace/${i}) )
for j in ${var[@]}; do
export ${j}
done
done
66-all up
For issue 1:
I have used this thread in the past (https://forum.obarun.org/d/1345-autologin-and-starting-x-wmde-without-a-dm) to enable autologin, but I am not sure how to do it on the new 66 system.
For issue 2 (RESOLVED):
I managed to resolve my issue by adding "dbus-run-session" to the "cmd=" line like this, to my home's .xinitrc:
#!/usr/bin/bash
if [ -d /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d ] ; then
for f in /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d/?*.sh ; do
[ -x "$f" ] && . "$f"
done
unset f
fi
list=( $(ls -A1 /home/hyperspace/.66/conf/svscan@hyperspace | sort) )
for i in ${list[@]};do
var=( $(</home/hyperspace/.66/conf/svscan@hyperspace/${i}) )
for j in ${var[@]}; do
export ${j}
done
done
66 tree start
## Try consolekit
if 66-which -q ck-launch-session; then
cmd="exec ck-launch-session dbus-run-session $@"
else
cmd="exec $@"
fi
## Select the session to start
${cmd} xfce4-session
For issue 3:
Using "66 disable/enable", "66 restart", and "66 start" on networkmanager and wpa_supplicant has no effect, despite no errors reported.
Rebooting the PC doesn't resolve the issue either.
