wait - so from tty, i ran nvidia-xconfig, which had some output of file missing, rewrote from backup. And now it worked! I am not even sure what worked

man:sddm.conf(5)ok config file xorg for nvidia was not created , mhwd do this for the user
if you last action was installing video-linux , that suppress config xorg nvidia and remove nouveau from blacklist conf
i see - so i created it manually, and all was fine - thanks all!
For record - the solution was to fix video driver with
mhwd -i <desired installation>
and then run
nvidia-xconfig
to make sure config file for the right driver is generated.
