You need to use nvidia-dkms if you have multiple kernels installed

#

Make sure you install linux-cachyos-headers from the AUR as well

modern frigate
#

is there a better way to install the driver?

delicate moat
#

Oh no

modern frigate
#

?

delicate moat
#

No, you're not supposed to install it like that

modern frigate
#

how then?

delicate moat
#

You're supposed to install it via pacman

modern frigate
#

oh

#

what's the command

#

how do I uninstall the .run packsge

delicate moat
#

pacman -S nvidia-dkms, but first you need to uninstall the other drivers

delicate moat
#

I believe you need to use the .run file with the --uninstall flag

modern frigate
#

ok

#

I uninstalled it and installed the dkms using pacman

#

I'ma install Nvidia settings but other than that anything else I need?

#

is the cachy kernel supposed to show up in the systemd thing? its not there. how do I use that kernel?

delicate moat
#

There should be an existing one in /boot/loader/entries/ (or somewhere like that) that you can use as reference

Make a copy of that file and change the linux and initrd line to match the cachyos versions

#

They should exist alongside the others in your boot directory

where are the cachy os linux and initrd found?
