Hi @Adaamek, welcome at the forum :tada:

Have you cleaned your cache before updating? If not, please enter

sudo pacman -Sc

and confirm all queries.

Then update by

sudo pacman -Syu

and show us the log list.

how to show the log list?

I mean the output you see on the screen when you enter the update command, sorry for the confusion.

Also, please provide

inxi -Fza

I have linux in Polish so here is log:

:: Synchronizowanie baz danych z pakietami…
core jest aktualne
extra jest aktualne
multilib jest aktualne
:: Rozpoczynanie pełnej aktualizacji systemu…
nie ma nic do zrobienia

it means that there is no packages to update

Welcome to the forum! :wave:

Please read what @soundofthunder posted above :point_up:

when I use the command inxi -zv8 this is what it shows:

mod. edited for spelling

Content of both commands is very similar, if you want you can delete the second post.

Next time, please format the output as I did this time for you. :wink:

Ok thank you for helping

As far as I understood the combination of Nvidia and wayland sometimes could form an issue (I have Intel, so no personal experience). In your case I would try to login to X11, to verify if this could help. Maybe someone from the forum with Nvidia experience can assists.

The second detail I saw is that you connect one of your monitors via DVI-D, maybe the older kernel better suports this ancient technology. :sweat_smile:

If I change to x11 on Linux54 will it change on Linux66?

I think so. But not 100% sure, to be honest.

I tried it and nothing changed

Have you tried other kernels?

I tried only on 54 and 66 because they are only kernels I had preinstalled

Why not installing another one then in addition?

Ok I’ll try with Linux614 kernel

Better start with 6.12 or 6.13.

System now works preety fine on 612 kernel. Thank you for your help!
