newbie here guys, I was busy with life and not really following the arch news page or wasnt able to update my system. after a system update pacman removed the nvidia package and replaced it with nvidia-open. after the update all of my external displays stopped working, hyprland just could not dedect any other display but my laptop display(hyprctl monitors output only had my laptop display). After some examination I found out nvidia_drm no more loaded upon booting, "cat /sys/module/nvidia_drm/parameters/modeset" returned directory doesnt exist.
what I have done:
- replaced nvidia-open with nvidia-580xx-dkms since it is now the recommended driver
- Added nvidia-drm into /etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf and /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
- made sure nvidia-drm.modeset=1 was already added into /etc/default/grub
- After manually running sudo modprobe nvidia_drm, the external monitor is detected by hyprctl monitors and I can move workspaces to it, but the screen remains black.
I currently have no time to make a fresh install or make a big DE switch.
