@Ranguvar implemented.

nvidia-utils in [extra] has xorg-server set as an optional dependency.

Could this package please consider the same? Thank you.

@remenic fixed. Thanks for reporting.

GTK4 and vulkaninfo (and probably all other vulkan apps) seemed to crap out on me with the error

vkGetPhysicalDeviceSurfacePresentModesKHR failed with ERROR_UNKNOWN

I managed to fix this by running

sudo chmod u+s /usr/bin/nvidia-modprobe

I based my (temporary) fix on this: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/nvidia-utils/-/merge_requests/20/diffs

Perhaps at least for now, this package also apply the SUID bit to nvidia-modprobe.

-Syudd worked for me to upgrade this package. It's incredibly dangerous, but it should be ok when isolated to this package upgrade only. The conflicts should be fixed asap.

Had the same issue using yay (on Arch) unable to upgrade from 560 to this 565 because of a conflict of egl-gbm with the old nvidia-utils-beta

egl-gbm: /usr/lib/libnvidia-egl-gbm.so exists in filesystem (belongs to nvidia-utils-beta)
egl-gbm: /usr/lib/libnvidia-egl-gbm.so.1 exists in filesystem (belongs to nvidia-utils-beta)
egl-gbm: /usr/share/egl/egl_external_platform.d/15_nvidia_gbm.json exists in filesystem (belongs to nvidia-utils-beta)

Had to forcefully remove the old nvidia-utils-beta (560) with all dependencies and than (re-)install the 565 versions (nvidia-utils-beta, aur/nvidia-beta-dkms, aur/nvidia-settings-beta) and "nvidia-prime" (1.0.5) as that got removed as well.

And now something is not right as not only "prime-run glxgears" (as a test) no longer works, even "nvidia-smi" does not find any Nvidia card anymore, on my dual GPU laptop.

Everything worked with the 560 driver, nothing else changed.

Edit: Switched to the Non-beta ( -utils -dkms -settings 565.57.01) that one works, the beta branch does not with my 4070M.

@mangoppola pamac? It looks like you are not using Arch Linux, and this is not supported. Please seek help in your distribution support channels.

@dbermond I tried installing the aforementioned package by running sudo pacman -Sy egl-gbm. This is the output:

:: Synchronising package databases...
 core is up to date
 extra is up to date
 multilib is up to date
error: target not found: egl-gbm

I also tried searching for the package by running sudo pacman -Ss egl-gbm, but the output was blank. When searching for egl-gbm in pamac, the only package that is shown is nvidia-535xx-utils from AUR, which would conflict with nvidia-utils-beta

@mangoppola the egl-gbm package is available in the [extra] official repository. You should have no problems installing it. Simply updating your system with a 'pacman -Syu' command should be sufficient.

Latest version (565.57.01) cannot be installed because of the following error:

warning: cannot resolve "egl-gbm", a dependency of "nvidia-utils-beta"
