Rarely something breaks my system (other than me messing with it), but this update was one of them. At first I thought it was the kernel upgrade that also came by today, but downgrading this pkg to 530 ~ made X and gdm work again

    Had a maybe similar issue with steam and nvidia. Enabling multilib-testing and updateing lib32-nvidia-utils fixed it for me

      Nope, I tried mkinitcpio -P and bootctl in arch-croot with a live usb, reinstalling kernels, installing normal linux kernel instead of zen, only downgrading nvidia worked

    On the other hand, this update fixed (at least for me) wayland high refresh rate monitor issues that got introduced with 530.x, so I could finally upgrade from nvidia-525xx AUR packages… Shame nvidia drivers regularly cause such issues.

    They had nvidia and lib32-nvidia-utils out of synch with lib32-nvidia-utils not updated to the new version yet. That’s been fixed, although I don’t know if that’ll fix this particular issue.

    Oh man not again, I was so glad to get an AMD GPU on my home desktop and not have to bother with this crap anymore and than my boss gave me a work laptop with a 3050…

    I’m still waiting for the nvidia-beta-dkms package to be updated in the AUR, but I was checking to see if nvidia had left extra-staging earlier today, guess that happened right after I checked.

      I noticed this recently myself. I’m growing tired of the Nvidia Proprietary drivers. I just picked up an Arc A770 to see if it suits my need better. Most of the games that I play are older and non triple A anyway so I don’t mind a performance dip

    I have been using the Frogging-Family Nvidia PKGBUILD for ages now. Easiest way I have seen to stay on the latest versions of the proprietary drivers with the least amount of headaches.

    It causes my laptop to freeze randomly. A complete hard lock requiring long pressing the power button to shut down. I rolled back to the previous version.
