@aparthy I use zen too, I just removed and reinstalled the package (after cleaning up any sort of cache) and it builds and installs without any issue. Do you have custom CFLAGS? I've noticed you're forcing the dkms autoinstall, is there something preventing you from just installing this package? Dkms should trigger and install the modules by default just fine.

I don't know if there's a proper way to make it right, because there's many kernels and also many linux-headers. Holding linux-headers as dependency will force to install the main linux-headers even if a person only uses linux-headers-lts or linux-headers-zen.

I had to run pacman -S linux-headers so that I don't get any missing kernel headers errors.

Shouldn't linux-headers be added to the dependencies?

Any ideas?

My Solution (for the moment)

• downgrade to Kernel 6.1.12-arch1-1

• install the driver via this git-repo: https://github.com/Frogging-Family/nvidia-all

Now i'm back on track :-)

@Menelkir seems i found problem. its my vfio setup broken in 6.* kernel. after remove vfio modules from mkinitcpio.conf, regenerate initram, and adjust xorg.conf(second gpu now visible to nvidia driver). tty console start work normal.

It seems the system is having issues to load the module. You can try loading by hand before Xorg starts (or using some other ways) or add to your initrd (which doesn't hurt but it'll increase your initrd size).
