Some people have KDE problems because they use Nvidia. I have KDE problems because I switched from Nvidia to amd but there's no way to uninstall Nvidia drivers in arch without a os reinstall and I'm too lazy for that (games still work, but many of my KDE bugs are probably caused by Nvidia drivers still being present). We are not the same.
You literally just have to uninstall the Nvidia packages
pacman -Rs nvidia nvidia-toolsi kinda did the same today, but my machine was headless.
can you give me more info on why is impossible to uninstall Nvidia drivers?
Just switched from 2080 super to 7900xt last week on Endeavour. Install amdgpu, vulkan and mesa, reboot and install, uninstall nvidia stuff.
How do you like this setup? I'm on the same thing, using nixos. It's great, but Nvidia is clearly a buggy mess when I compare to my steam deck (I know not apples to apples)
I am loving it. Most recent builds have been absolutely smooth. My only complaint, a minor one, is I'm lazy and would like to see Discover added and populated with flatpak and appimage support more easily.
It was good with the 2080. It's great with the 7900. Everything I throw at it, maxed out 4k, streamed via Sunshine (max detail/quality all) to an nvidia Shield or Steamdeck running moonlight, is so closely synced that audio is pretty much matched.
And since getting rid of nvidia, no more waking up in the mornings to find the thing had crashed and rebooted to maintenance mode during some sort of unattended update or process.
Wat
Unless you went to the NVIDIA website and ran the .bin, you're not supposed to do that on any distro unless you want problems.
Although it still shouldn't use an inactive driver.
When I last had an Nvidia GPU (secondhand PC), I discovered that the drivers came with altered versions of a lot of the 3D rendering libs. Those drivers are a cancer.
I didn't know that, but when I changed to AMD I didn't think twice before reinstall everything so I never reached this knowledge.
