Hi, i’m very newbie using Manjaro bur i’m Feel in love.
Even if i experiencing a ton of problems.
At this point, the most important is that i’m not able to make my GPU works ok and with the VA-API enable on i3 and Sway. In Manjaro Gnome, i’ve managed to make It work with the propietary drivers, not with nouveau, which i rhink It Will not work with Wayland.
I have try a lot of options and i have search a lot of info, even i have try to figure out with the help of Chatgpt with no success.
The thing is that the screen can be see, bur if i test the GPU, there js no VA-API and, in the other hand, if i try to install the Nvidia drivers everithing crashs.
I have a 1050ti.
Anyone knows how to fix this problwm?
Sorry for the delay, but i have to reinstall sway first, and a lot of things. If vdpau is what i need, vdpau xD
I said VA-API because is what xbox xcloud tell me is what i need, but i don’t know what is the correct option. anyways, thx for the tip. so, yes, vdpau.
i have made the commands you tell me, i post everything:
The new installation of sway continue to work just like the others attempts and the accelaration does not work, even if there is signal out and i can see the screen (i’m witing this in my computer)
This is the journalctl, i post it because i think it say something about nvidia and maybe it could be useful:
journalctl -xe 127 ✘

Second, i have an issue whith the propietary drivers that consist in make all my installation crash. Everytime I install the nvidia propietary drivers, the screen falls to black while installing, and then after a forces restart it is impossible to login again (even if i uninstall nvidia drivers and reinstall nouveau)
This second part is related with wayland, and no wanting to start with propiertary drivers (normally sway has a log option, nos supported, which is destined to that but not in my case)
thx you!
I have arrive, for myself, to the same point. That’s why i asked in the first time.
I know wayland, and nvidia, and everything but, you know, it works on Garuda and EndeavourOS so this is beyond need, it’s about to know why it is not working when it could.
in the other hand, Nouveau supports the Pascal family and, of course, my GPU so it can be crap, but it must work.
this is the reason why i asked.
I’m pretty sure the issue is that my drivers (nouveau) are setting for another kernel and that’s why the modprobe fails but i don’t know how to fix it. It can’t be so dificult.
Even if i dont really understand what can i do with all that info, i think some of my problems could be fixed with this.
But I’m a bit scared because i prefer not to crash my installation again with some try.
The history with Nvidia and Wayland is in a second spot, i prefer install the drivers correctly, before i made tries to make Wayland support propietary drivers.
