I think there is something not proper yet with NVIDIA drivers. I tried to install nfancurve
from the AUR, and it tries to replace the video drivers because it needs nvidia-settings
wich is, I think, actually provided within nvidia-utils
maybe their is an oversight and nvidia-settings
needs to be added to the packages provided by nvidia-utils
or maybe there is something wrong on my side and/or I’m confused about the nvidia packages names. From my understanding nvidia-settings
provides the Nvidia control panel, that I currently can open from terminal with command nvidia-settings
so I assume it is provided with package nvidia-utils
already on my machine.

Choose a provider for nvidia-settings:
1: nvidia-settings-beta 455.45.01-1 AUR
2: nvidia-settings-full-vulkan-all 455.46.02-1 AUR
3: nvidia-settings-gtk2 455.28-1 AUR
Enter a number (default=1):
It should install and work properly in theory because I should have nvidia-settings installed already and it shouldn’t try to find an alternative for the missing dependency nvidia-settings.
[omano@omano-nvme ~]$ pacman -Qo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings
