Asus K73ta laptop xfce Nvidia graphics problem after Jan 2024 update

Good… :slightly_smiling_face:

The culprit seems to be Mesa 23.3.3. I restored timeshift snapshot made just before the update and reapply the update except ten Mesa packages:

You can edit /etc/pacman.conf and add this line to avoid those packages:

IgnorePkg = lib32-libva-mesa-driver lib32-mesa lib32-mesa-vdpau lib32-vulkan-intel lib32-vulkan-radeon libva-mesa-driver mesa mesa-vdpau vulkan-intel vulkan-radeon

If you don’t have a timeshift snaphot, try downgrading mesa packages to 23.1.9.
