and your intel cpu has its own gpu, so why it is not detected?
is it disabled in bios?
Removed all the these files and no change, and I have no idea why the intel cpu is not detected. I’ll check in BIOS but I don’t think I saw anything like it in it.
yes check bios for graphics related options …
were you installing some gpu switching packages/widgets?
also from tty install the 5.15 kernel:
sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux515
open this:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
and edit this line to look like this:
GRUB_TIMEOUT_STYLE=menu
save it with: ctrl+x, update grub:
sudo update-grub
reboot and select it in the grub menu/advanced options - dont select the fallback one…
I tried to move from the free drivers to the Nvidia one to solve crashes for XORG. I had these crashes ever since I’ve installed this machine.
I’ve installed the new kernel and edited the the grub file, but don’t understand what am I supposed to choose? Under advanced options to choose Manjaro Linux (Kernel: 5.15.74-3-Manjaro)?
There are two over there, and both of them get stuck at
[ OK ] Reached target Graphical Interface
I’m going over the BIOS, but I don’t think I’ll see anything new.
in the advanced options you should select the non fallback entry for the 5.15 kernel…
so provide logs, there may be some hint whats happening:
journalctl -b0 -p4 --no-pager
sudo dmesg -l err,warn,emerg,alert,crit
sudo dmesg | grep nvidia
yes you had issues because you were running on the open source drivers…
and how is the nvidia connected? directly plugged into the motherboard or via riser cable?
I’ve decided to try and check if the live enviroment with Nvidia’s drivers and after adding the ibt=off it worked for the live enviroment. I have bad news, normal 5.15 still doesn’t load all the way, but I got few bluetooth errors, might be random, but I’ve wanted to write it down either way. Sometimes it get stuck on Reached Sound Card insteead on Graphical Interface. Got a little happy for a moment that there was any kind of change so I’ve decided to write it here.
Currently it stay there. Now for your requests:
journalctl -b0 -p4 --no-pager

returned nothing
Also, just so we’ll be on the same page, to copy the results of the diffrent commands I use tty only and pip the results into a file on usb, move the usb to a computer that works next to me (windows) and copy paste the file.
so you are saying that you booted with proprietary drivers into live usb, and the nvidia drivers were loaded? did you verify it in the live usb with: inxi -G for example?
the nvidia is not even detected, there are no logs to nvidia, and there should be!
but you have this:
can't disable ASPM; OS doesn't have ASPM control
so lets fix it right away:
sudo nano /etc/default/grub
and in this line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT inside the quotes add this parameter:
pcie_aspm=off
dont remove anything from there!, just add it to existing parameters, save the file: ctrl+x, update grub:
sudo update-grub
reboot and see if it helped…
also this?:
Now that I’ve ran it again it too get stuck at Reached target Graphical Interface.
I’ve done it and nothing changed, still the same results
The GTX960 is connected directly into a PCIEX16 port of GA-H61M-S2PV
so now when you selected to boot with proprietart drivers it got stuck?
check logs:
journalctl -b0 --no-pager | grep nvidia
can you unplug it and then plug it back and see if it helped
I’m trying to run it again without the ibt=off and see if it works. But it got stuck too.
The journalctl -b0 --no-pager | grep nvidia from the live enviroment return this

you have these, which looks like the nvidia is being blacklisted…

ok so there is some progress here:
so uninstall the latest nvidia:
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia
and install the 470 series:
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-470xx
reboot and see if it helped
if not remove the 470 series:
sudo mhwd -r pci video-nvidia-470xx
and install the 390:
sudo mhwd -i pci video-nvidia-390xx
reboot
Sadly neither worked, I had recorded the journalctl of the 470xx
journalctl -b0 --no-pager | grep nvidia

I see the struggle here and … well, i’ll mention it again: i have the same GPU and there are no issues with it regardless the Nvidia version drivers i use, but i go with the video-nvidia aka 520.56.06 … and works on all supported kernels.
Please boot from the Live Media latest ISO, using proprietary drivers and let us know if there are any issues. By the way, this is normal to see in journal and should not concern you:
oct 27 08:29:36 manjaro kernel: nvidia: loading out-of-tree module taints kernel.
oct 27 08:29:36 manjaro kernel: nvidia: module license 'NVIDIA' taints kernel.
oct 27 08:29:36 manjaro kernel: nvidia: module verification failed: signature and/or required key missing - tainting kernel
My suggestion, based on what i witnessed so far here, is to change the port where the GPU is connected on your motherboard, test with Live Media proprietary drivers and the installed system.
do what bogdan suggest by trying a different port on your motherboard if you have them…
also try booting into a live enviroment with a non arch distro, like linux mint for example, and if you are able to boot, check with:
inxi -G
to see if the nvidia drivers are being loaded and not the nouveau one…
