Manjaro plasma reinstall get stuck in boot, nvidia driver problem?

Hello, I may not be new linux user but I am not that good with it.
I reinstalled my Manjaro so I can have clean slate. Noting new here, I done must have configs and rebooted couple of times. Everything looked fine including Nvidia drivers.
As I have dual boot, on next day I started my computer and chose Manjaro. It got stuck before login.

On TTY I tried to update

sudo pacman-mirrors -f3
sudo pacman -Syyu

Also xorg don’t start, tail of log after inxi

How to process from here?

I don’t know how you installed the nvidia driver, but it isn’t being used. You will want to reinstall it. Plenty of explanations on how to do that here on the forum so I wont restate it here.

I did it by

sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

like every tutorial or google query say. It is also thing that I hit in this forum.
So if you don’t like to rewrite, you can always give useful link. I didn’t find anything else.

I don’t like double posting so I edit answer here

While default command didn’t work, I wound answer on this post
