Hi. After updating to the 6.2 Linux kernel the Nvidia proprietary drivers don’t work anymore.
In fact, when I try to install a driver with sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300
I get error: target not found: linux62-nvidia
Likewise, when doing sudo pacman -Syu nvidia
I get the following options:
1) linux419-nvidia 2) linux419-nvidia-390xx 3) linux419-nvidia-470xx 4) linux510-nvidia 5) linux510-nvidia-390xx 6) linux510-nvidia-470xx 7) linux515-nvidia 8) linux515-nvidia-390xx
9) linux515-nvidia-470xx 10) linux54-nvidia 11) linux54-nvidia-390xx 12) linux54-nvidia-470xx 13) linux61-nvidia 14) linux61-nvidia-390xx 15) linux61-nvidia-470xx 16) linux61-rt-nvidia
17) linux61-rt-nvidia-390xx 18) linux61-rt-nvidia-470xx 19) linux63-nvidia 20) linux63-nvidia-390xx 21) linux63-nvidia-470xx 22) linux63-rt-nvidia 23) linux63-rt-nvidia-390xx
24) linux63-rt-nvidia-470xx 25) linux64-nvidia 26) linux64-nvidia-390xx 27) linux64-nvidia-470xx 28) linux64-rt-nvidia 29) linux64-rt-nvidia-390xx 30) linux64-rt-nvidia-470xx 31) nvidia-dkms
Notice there is no linux62-nvidia
.
The same happens in Manjaro Settings Manager.
What should I do now? Downgrade to the 6.1 kernel or pick another nvidia driver?

Because linux62 does not exist and is dead.
You need to install and boot into a supported kernel.
Then remove 6.2.
Ex:
Just a point of information …
I know the dialogue from msm-notifier is less than desirable … but you dont have any reason to be on the 6.4 kernel.
If you had an actual EOL kernel, such as 6.2 you might need to remove that … but it doesnt mean you need to use the absolute latest kernel.
You can see kernels and their projected lifetimes here: The Linux Kernel Archives - Releases
Also … its generally a bad idea to attempt removal of a running kernel.
You should:
A - Install whatever other k…
PS…
nhopf:
sudo pacman -Syu nvidia
That is not how we manage drivers on manjaro.
We use Manjaro Settings Manager // mhwd
, or else is unsupported.

Thank you, @cscs !
Now I have the 6.3.13-1-MANJARO
kernel.
But when I try to install the nvidia driver from the Manjaro Settings Manager I still get error: target not found: linux62-nvidia
even after rebooting.
I don’t know where it is taking the 6.2 version from. In that case would installing it with sudo pacman -Syu nvidia
be a valid workaround?

No.
Did you remove 6.2 ?
mhwd-kernel -li
pacman -Qs linux62
