Does uninstalling the 5.8 kernel also uninstall the NVIDIA drivers?

That was long ago set to pasture and is not supported.

“Doesn’t work” doesn’t tell us anything.

You’ll want to install a supported kernel. Open Manjaro Settings > Kernel and see what’s available. If 4.9 isn’t working, try 4.4 and 4.19. You can have multiple kernels installed and choose between them during boot.

As far as the proper NVIDIA driver, someone else will have to chime in as I’m not very knowledgeable in that area.

Please post your system information as outlined here:
