hi everyone
i have a intel atom netbook that i have arch installed on and have been
using it for the last couple of years without any issues,
after doing a pacman -Syu recently when i reboot it gets through boot up
to the point of setting up the desktop and then crashes with 2 thirds
of the screen from left to right fill with a random rows of dots on a
black background and the last third has my desktop with an exit icon at
the bottom,
i went through the process of downgrading the kernel and got it to boot
normally again
i thought that because it was a 32 bit computer the problem was to do
with arch no longer supporting the i686 architecture
so i migrated the laptop to Arch Linux 32, everything went smoothly ,
after the migration i rebooted the laptop and i was back with the same
problem.
i chrooted into the laptop with a live usb stick and retrieved a portion
of the journal
here,s the log. error-report

my Desktop Environment is lxde
if more of the logs are needed please let me know
i would be thankful for any pointers to fixing the problem
