Just a heads up, Nvidia 535.54.03-1 broke my system (beehaw.org)

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

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...

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

My first linux fix find on Lemmy rather than Reddit. Keep it up!

I was able to boot just fine with 535, but Steam couldn't launch because lib32-nvidia-utils didn't make it out of multilib-testing yet. Temporarily enabling it and installing that package seemed to fix things for me. I'd check if that's related to your issue.

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.
