Honestly, remove BOTH and then reinstall recommended driver for your system.
The links to wiki is provided by @Teo above.
You REALLY need to provide an inxi.
Do you know how to mount a usb stick so you can access it in cli?
Then I can help you to create a log file that you can copy, paste from to here in the forum.
either stop doing stuff and do what ppl ask you to do, or I can guarantee you the support will stop from the forum.
I suggested a quick dirty fix but i am not that sure anymore. You have a lot of stuff dependent on that driver (cuda vaapi utils etc.). We can purge them all of course, and then you would be able to unistall the driver, but we are actually still not sure if that is the problem. Collecting logs as suggested before would be the better option. So more competent people than me can see why exactly X server or whatever fails.
If you want to continue to blindly try to remove the propitiery nvidia and see what happens, then it would be
sudo pacman -Rd nvidia-utils cuda nvidia-vaapi-driver-git
But it is a dangerous path, trying to fix with wild guess without actually knowing the problem. Consider doing it the right way - boot from live usb, chroot, post inxi and journalctl etc. One of the tutorials is already linked above, the other would be
I done the inxi command it says in there but I can’t copy and paste it because I don’t have gui
That’s all I can send from it because I can’t scroll up to the beginning
just chroot, as you were instructed above:
boot into manjaro live usb, make sure you are connected to internet, open terminal and chroot:
manjaro-chroot -a
rerun update:
pacman-mirrors -f 5 && pacman -Syyu
if there are errors post the output here, if there are no errors and you are up to date, post output from:
mhwd-kernel -li && mhwd -l -li
pacman -Qs nvidia
pacman -Qm
ldconfig - (this should return nothing)
and use formatting for the outputs, click this icon in editor </> and copy the output there;
or use:
```
your output here
```

Also going to leave this here:
I don’t have a usb
so run the commands from tty:
sudo pacman-mirrors -f 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
if there are errors post the output here, if there are no errors and you are up to date, post output from:
mhwd-kernel -li && mhwd -l -li
pacman -Qm
sudo ldconfig - (this should return nothing)
The output from < mhwd-kernel -li && mhwd -l -li >
The output from < pacman -Qm >
The output from < sudo ldconfig > doesn’t show anything
Sorry they’re all photos I can’t copy and paste it
Edit: the format thing didn’t work I don’t think I entered it right sorry
so you are up to date, and no errors when updating?
you have installed 4 kernels, did you tried booting with the others too?
post also output from:
pacman -Qs vmware
You should be able to select them at grub during boot.
If you dont see grub try hitting Esc.
I’m on the grub thing and it shows this what should I select?
Edit: I booted into the second kernel that shown up and I now have a gui! What would I have to do to make this my default kernel for when my pc boots?
in the advanced options, select the 6.1, dont select the fallback one, and test…
if it again complains about the vmware, uninstall it from tty:
sudo pacman -R vmware-keymaps
reboot and see if it helped
I now have a gui after I booted into second kernel what do I do to make this my default kernel?
What is ‘second kernel’ ?
Currently running:
uname -r
You may remove others with, ex:
sudo mhwd-kernel -r linux419
Second kernel is 6.1.38-1-MANJARO
And would that command remove every kernel besides my current one?
