Support Graphics & Display

Hallo. Todays update broke my system. I was running kernel 5.8 and it installed 5.9.

On boot i get black screen.
I can get in tty but startx gives error.
Boot from live and chroot update not working
Uninstall grafic driver and install not working

I had the nvidia 455xx driver installed before update but now it doesn’t appear now in available list

Also attempting to install the nonfree drivers gives error.

Sorry for posting picture.

Somebody can help me out please?

Thanks in advance

Thanks. My problem was the nvidia-455xx-utils conflict.

I removed it with
sudo pacman -Rdd nvidia-455xx-utils

and then i did

sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

which worked after uninstallation of utils

Thanks and happy new year
