After installing Manjaro GNOME with proprietary drivers the system sometimes doesn’t boot. I have to reboot a few times to see the login screen. Otherwise it shows a black screen or stucks at the UEFI manjaro loading screen. Output of inxi --admin --verbosity=7 --filter --width: System: Kernel: …

and did you disable the TPM Trust Platform Technology under security in bios, as suggested in the link above

There’s no setting for that. I have messed with bios settings though and they don’t help.

Guys I noticed that using the fallback initramfs seems to consistently boot the system.

So something is messed up apparently. I remind you that the live usb sometimes fails to boot as well. Probably, the fallback initramfs does something that the default one does not. Should I configure grub to always use the fallback one or is there any problem with that?

Looks like this issue: [image] Still booting to blank screen Graphics & Display Looks like a timing issue… make the drivers load very early: Replace MODULES=() with: MODULES=(amdgpu nvidia) at /etc/mkinitcpio.conf Then run sudo mkinitcpio -P to update the initramfs. …

I added: MODULES=(i915 nvidia) and then: MODULES=(i915 nvidia nvidia_modeset nvidia_uvm nvidia_drm) Neither worked. I use the nvidia prime intel/nvidia hybrid driver (the default one). Another issue is that in (successful) boots without fallback initramfs sometimes it doesn’t resume after susp…

shouldnt be it like this?: MODULES="i915 nvidia nvidia_drm nvidia_uvm nvidia_modeset" “” quotes instead of () try it with “” than run: sudo mkinitcpio -P reboot

The arch wiki mentions that the quotes were deprecated. It even uses examples in comments with the parentheses.

ok, good to know… so what remains is running on the fallback kernel…

Sometimes black screen after boot

Looks like this issue:

In your case it would be i915 instead of amdgpu.
