Arch Linux User Repository

Can you provide a log? I was reading about it, looks like simpledrm conflicts with nvidia drivers since 5.x series, you may disable it on your kernel config. See this:

https://gitweb.gentoo.org/repo/gentoo.git/tree/x11-drivers/nvidia-drivers/nvidia-drivers-470.161.03.ebuild#n133

I notice the official kernels have the simpledrm turned on, so you can also try to add nvidia modules to your mmkinitcpio.conf, but of course this is just assumptions since I don't know what error do you really have.

@bittin can you provide a log?

does not work on kernel 6.2 with my old GTX 760

Xorg whines about simpledrm something something

patch for the upcoming 6.2 kernel: https://gitlab.com/herecura/packages/nvidia-470xx-dkms/-/blob/ecb0dc5abaf4318fdfa89a755ce363522ad74eb2/kernel-6.2.patch

Oh my god you solve my problem. I'm tryng for two entire days. Thank you so much!

Do you have linux headers installed?

I tried yet, no way. I try to install nvidia package and disable nouveaux with a .conf file in /etc/modprobe.d, and doesn´t work. I try to remove nvidia package without remove blacklist.conf, but gui not started. I repeat, I'm not expert, but I think that if I disable nouveaux (with nvidia not installed) and GUI not started, the blacklist is working. So, is a nvidia's problem.

If this can help, when I installed nvidia package I get:

But the package is normally installed after this error.

Blacklist nouveau.
