so ibt=off and optimus-manager.startup was active at the same time ?
yes, both were active at that time.
i didnāt know this, this information came too late.
you can try either
ibt=off nvidia_drm.modeset=1
or the optimus but iām not aware if both do interrupt.
please try this first. use
ibt=off nvidia_drm.modeset=1
do a
sudo mkinitcpio -P
sudo update-grub
reboot and report what happened
Same as before, even the optimus-manager status message is the same.
wait, please post the output of
systemctl status optimus-manager

did you really run
sudo systemctl disable optimus-manager
as demanded and deleted āoptimus-manager.startupā in /etc/default/grub and run mkinitcpio and update-grub ?
Forgot to disable it last time, repeated the whole process now and rebooted. Grub only has āibt=off nvidia_drm.modeset=1ā in it and systemctl status optimus-manager
shows that itās disabled. Still no Xorg and nvidia-smi reports that no devices were found.
okay, letās try something. edit the file /etc/sddm.conf and simply put a # before the line starting with DisplayCommand and the one starting with DisplayStopCommand.
reboot and report
No particular changes.
your nvidia drivers are being loaded according to the inxi outputā¦
post output from:
ls /etc/modprobe.d
and how is it connected, via cable, or directly plugged into the motherboard?
okay, before we get crazy. can you use a live-iso from manjaro, boot into live and check if your gpu is running in a live system ? that would be very helpful if it is a miss of your actual system or if there might be a problem in general. checking this with a live-iso can save a lot of wasted time.
NVIDIA driver doesnāt seem loaded, but the GPU is plugged directly into the motherboard.
ls /etc/modprobe.d
mhwd-gpu.conf
It's contents:
blacklist nouveau
blacklist ttm
blacklist drm_kms_helper
blacklist drm
inxi -G
Graphics:
Device-1: NVIDIA GA104 [GeForce RTX 3060] driver: nvidia v: 520.56.06
Display: server: X.org v: 1.21.1.4 driver: X: loaded: N/A unloaded: nvidia gpu: nvidia note:
X driver n/a tty: 128x48
Message: GL data unavailable in console. Try -G --display
it is loadedā¦
so do this now:
Sure, so I install the driver with mhwd and check with nvidia-smi?
no, download the latest iso, make a bootable usb-stick / DVD whatever and just boot into this live enviroment to see if your gpu is recognized in a live system.
I can boot into the LiveUSB with open source drivers but not the proprietary ones, ends up with the same scenario as the one Iām experiencing right now, stuck at āReached target Graphical Interfaceā but I get access to tty and everything else seems to be loaded well.
Used the latest ISO from the Manjaro site: manjaro-kde-21.3.7-220816-linux515.iso.
may you check your bios-settings for āfast bootā and make sure it is disabled.
Donāt find a Fast Boot option in BIOS but Secure Boot is disabled.
okay, next thing is to check the package-manager for avaiable linux-firmware updates/upgrades.
