Hello,
I came back to Manjaro after a long while off and realized that my nvidia drivers 340.xx were no longer supported. My Manjaro installation reverted automatically to nouveau drivers for which I have display issues.
I get a lot artifacts/ghosting when scrolling in windows or when text blinks…
I managed to revert back to legacy nvidia 340.xx proprietary drivers with a how to from the forums which the fixed the display issue.
Anyone knows why the nouveau drivers are not working with my setup?
Is there an acceleration setting I could disable in gnome or wayland to make it work?
