Hello,
Here is some input about my laptop.

inxi -G
Graphics:  Device-1: Intel UHD Graphics driver: i915 v: kernel 
           Device-2: NVIDIA TU104GLM [Quadro RTX 5000 Mobile / Max-Q] driver: N/A 
           Device-3: Quanta HP HD Camera type: USB driver: uvcvideo 
           Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.11 driver: loaded: modesetting resolution: 1920x1080~60Hz 
           OpenGL: renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 12.0.0 256 bits) v: 4.5 Mesa 21.1.2

mhwd-kernel  --listinstalled     
Currently running: 5.11.22-2-MANJARO (linux511)
The following kernels are installed in your system:

I have been following the forum post (Nvidia Drivers Not Working) to install Nvidia drivers on Manjaro. On running the following command
sudo mhwd -f -i pci video-nvidia
I get the following error

Please help. Thank you for your support.

I’m no expert and hopefully someone else can confirm. Your card is supported by the latest nvidia drivers but you said you have a laptop so you want the video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime drivers.

It might help

Also the fact that the driver files are already in your system denotes you probably messed with the package from Nvidia website and you didn’t tell.

Thanks for the replies. I followed the second method as suggested in Install Nvidia driver on Manjaro 21 which failed midway. Then learnt about issues with driver compatibility for Manjaro kernel from Google searches and tried the suggestion in the forum.

  1. How do I remove these libraries?
  2. How to install video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime drivers?

Any posts on them will be helpful.

This is what I was talking about. This is not how you should install Nvidia drivers in Manjaro. You should find the proper way to remove these drivers you installed (I’m not sure the proper way, maybe from the package manager it is possible), then you should install the drivers through the Manjaro Settings in the Hardware Configuration part.

Is This to be done using pacman and mhwd as discussed in the post I mentioned in the original post?
