A error when installing nvidia drivers

[naive bone]

Im installing nvidia using pacman and it just gives me random errors.

[waxen jungle]

are you connected to the internet, have you tried new mirrors?

[naive bone]

how do i try new mirrors?

[waxen jungle]

do you have reflector installed?

also how is this both arch and other distro?

is this arch or not?

[naive bone]

nevermind i reinstalled my mirrors thru endeavoros.

i am using endeavoros

[waxen jungle]

I don't understand why you have the arch tag if it's not arch

#readme-support-access very clearly details that you can't use the arch tag for non-arch, including derivatives, did you not read it?

[naive bone]

mb i removed it. I didn't mean to click it.

[waxen jungle]

the updated mirrors working for you?

[naive bone]

not yet it gave me an error which told me to basically update my aur

[naive bone]

is this important?

[waxen jungle]

what kernel are you using?

[naive bone]

6.8.1-arch

[waxen jungle]

just the linux package?

or does endeavour have it's own

[naive bone]

just the package

[waxen jungle]

like if it's lts, or zen, or tkg, you need nvidia-dkms

well nvidia-lts if it's lts, but other 2 or other custom is dkms

if it's just standard you can use just the nvidia package

[naive bone]

i did pacman for nvidia and now it seems installed. do i restart?

[waxen jungle]

did it trigger dracut?

do you have a hook for nvidia

.aw nvidia

[versed sierra]

Nvidia

[naive bone]

yes

[waxen jungle]

then yeah, as long as dracut managed to finish sucessfully, you can probably restart

did you install other things like nvidia-utils?
