Good Evening All.
I did a complete wipe and fresh install of Manjaro off the current live iso and verified the checksum. The main problem is I’ve been trying for ages to get nvidia-340xx to install as nouveau is not always stable on my machine. I’ve tried to install it with LTS 5.4 as I’ve read that n…340x is no longer supported on the latest kernel.
After installing the kernel I reboot and am not given any option in grub to pick a kernel! It loads right up.
Also, when i try to install nvidia-340xx I get the message
error: target not found: linux58-nvidia-340xx
I was getting this with other installs (this is reinstall number 4!) no matter what kernel I am on, and now I can’t even select the old kernel.
I’ve run pacman-mirrors and pacman -Syyu. I ran update-grub and all looks clear.
I’m at my whit’s end, expert help is appreciated. Much thanks, even if you just read this.
