Error when updating nvidia-450

Support Graphics & Display

Good evening friends,

I try to install the proprietary nvidia-450xx driver by following the wiki page.
But according to the terminal feedback, I get errors.

The first return:

Warning: a version of config 'video-nvidia-450xx' is already installed! Use -f/--force to force installation...

The second one:

mhwd -li

Installed PCI configs:

              NAME               VERSION          FREEDRIVER           TYPE

video-nvidia-450xx            2019.10.25               false            PCI
       video-linux            2018.05.04                true            PCI               Warning: No installed USB configs!

And the last one:

 nvidia-settings    Gtk-Message: 19:21:44.032: Failed to load module "appmenu-gtk-module"    ERROR: NVIDIA driver is not loaded    ERROR: Unable to load info from any available system

I don’t understand "Failed to load module “appmenu-gtk-module”

Why this driver doesn’t install?

Thank you all! :grin: :grin:

Can you try to install the driver with settings menu ?

I’ve already do it :wink:

And inxi -G give me:

Graphics:    Device-1: NVIDIA GP107 [GeForce GTX 1050] driver: nouveau v: kernel    Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.9 driver: nouveau unloaded: modesetting    resolution: 1: 1920x1080~60Hz 2: 1920x1080~60Hz    OpenGL: renderer: NV137 v: 4.3 Mesa 20.1.7

I have installed “nvidia-450xx-dkms” from the AUR repository and my graphics card works.
At least on the 5.8 kernel which I installed afterwards and rebooted.
I need to see if it works on kernel 5.7…
