EDIT: Kernel is out of sync, mkinitcpio builds 5.10.7 instead of 5.10.13 (which is mentioned in Manjaro settings GUI)
Installed Manjaro this week (5.9), and the Manjaro settings told me a newer kernel was available, so updated to 5.10. However I cannot get the nvidia drivers to load on 5.10, they do on 5.9.
I have googled around and found some suggestions, but was not able to fix them.
The xorg.0.log told me that nvidia failed to load, and after reading this (forum.manjaro [dot] org/t/5-10-kernel-install-broke-my-display/45888) post I ran sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300 -f, my pacman -Q | grep nvidia now returns:
lib32-nvidia-utils 460.39-1
linux510-nvidia 460.39-7
linux59-nvidia 460.39-1
mhwd-nvidia 460.39-1
mhwd-nvidia-390xx 390.141-1
nvidia-prime 1.0-4
nvidia-utils 460.39-1
opencl-nvidia 460.39-1
What I noticed is that sudo cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep -i nvidia comes back empty now
Also, inxi -G:
Graphics: Device-1: Intel UHD Graphics 630 driver: i915 v: kernel
Device-2: NVIDIA TU117GLM [Quadro T1000 Mobile] driver: N/A
Device-3: Chicony Integrated Camera type: USB driver: uvcvideo

OpenGL: renderer: Mesa Intel UHD Graphics 630 (CFL GT2) v: 4.6 Mesa 20.3.4
Any clues as to how to fix this?
Edit: After further inspection I noticed the line Failed to start Load Kernel Modules in my boot.log. Maybe this has something to do with it. Only fix I found online was installing grub but I’m using systemd-boot so not running that
