Can’t boot into Arch + Gnome + Wayland with 530.41.03-1. I have a 1080TI and I have 60Hz monitor. I am stuck after the GNOME Display Manager (GDM) login and have to switch to Xorg. I had to downgrade to use Wayland. warning: downgrading package nvidia-utils (530.41.03-1 => 525.89.02-2) warning:…

Hello, Thanks for your reply, sorry for the late answer. I am loading the following modules and haven’t touched them : MODULES=(nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm) I also have the nvidia_drm.modeset=1 as a kernel parameter.

Dont forget to sudo mkinitcpio -P after you added the modules to mkinitcpio. Also are you using grub or systemd-boot? if you’re using grub you need to sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg after adding the kernel parameter to grub. If you are using systemd-boot there is no further action taken. …

I did not add them, the modules have been there since the beginning. I did not need to regenerate anything. I have a pacman hook to regenerate mikinitcpio -P. I can get into Wayland, just not with the new 530.41.03-1.

Oh okay. I misunderstood then. I thought it was a new install. Hopefully, the issue will get resolved soon!

I hope so too. I edited my pacman.conf to IgnorePkg` for the time being, but I hope it’ll be resolved soon

ARCH + KDE+X11+NVIDIA-DKMS 530.41.03 HDMI 4k120 GSYNC Same issue for me. I can boot into the new driver if I delete the line: /etc/X11/xorg.conf Option "metamodes" ... As soon as you use nvidia-settings again, your system will fail to hit graphical mode next time you reboot it. Wha…

I don’t have a /etc/X11/xorg.conf I had to revert to use Xorg, I still can’t log in Wayland. I upgraded my packages, it upgraded my kernel which broke my install because the kernel depend on the latest nvidia-dkms 530 module. I had to arch-chroot to fix it.
