For the beginners in need of assistance, first take a look at this recommended guide https://github.com/korvahannu/arch-nvidia-drivers-installation-guide - maybe it helps to solve the issues your are having with this version of the driver.

@elppans: Thanks for replying. Unfortunately it didn't work. I'll stay with lts for now, with the hope of a solution in a near future. For the record I have a GT720.

+1 for cloning the GitLab repo suggested by @BlackIkeEagle. Worked like a charm on my rig with 6.0.1-arch2-1. Not a laptop though so can't speak to the backlight issue.

@Nestor_013 Update Kernel to version 6.0.1-arch2-1 and try again. Your compilation gave an error while configuring the modules. In my testing, this new driver update (470.141.03-2) failed on Kernel version 6.0.1-arch2-1 but successfully installed on version 6.0.1-arch2-1.

If that also fails, you'll have to use the linux-lts, as @jonathon recommended, until an official video driver update is released.

I'll have to stick with kernel 5.15.73-3-lts for a while. It works without a flaw with nvidia-470xx-utils 470.141.03-2.

This driver does not fully support kernel 6.0. I recommend you switch to linux-lts until NVIDIA release a new driver version.

Same problem as @ganainm and @XAVeRY here with a GeForce GT 755M (GK107M) in a lenovo laptop running optimus-manager in hybrid mode I get this error in Xorg.0.log:

[    57.044] (EE) Screen 1 deleted because of no matching config section.
[    57.044] (II) UnloadModule: "nvidia"
[    57.044] (II) UnloadSubModule: "wfb"

And kernel log shows the same error: Failed to copy vbios to system memory... Meanwhile the lts kernel works just fine.

@elppans brilliant fix, worked perfectly for my 660Ti. Cheers!

ganainm commented on 2022-10-14 21:52 (UTC)

@julio.b I've been using the 470.xx driver without any problem until kernel 6.0 appeared. The driver still works perfectly with the 5.* LTS kernel.

@elppans this fixes the issue for me. Thanks. No runtime errors at all. (I'm using the GT730) @ganainm i might be completely wrong but your gpu is not listed for 470.xx series, maybe you are using the wrong driver? I found it under 390.xx series here https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/

Reverting to the LTS kernel shows no problem at all. The card is: VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GK107GLM [Quadro K2000M]
