CachyOS. both x11 and wayland de/wms dont function as intended (x11 black screens, wayland shows a grey screen and cursor.) i have a feeling this is due to nvidia drivers only working on wayland, causing x11 based ones to black screen. and for wayland, i have no idea. the specific DE/WMs that i tried (besides wayland kde plasma that actually works) is plasma with x11, awesome, and wayfire.
#any DE/WM besides the one i picked on the install script refuses to function as intended.

open /etc/default/grub and append nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nvidia-drm.fbdev=1 in the line that says GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT
when you're done itll look something like GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="splash quiet nvidia-drm.modeset=1 nvidia-drm.fbdev=1"
splash quiet being whatever args you had before this
then after that run sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
if youre not sure what to open it in, you can use sudo nano /etc/default/grub
