Hey guys, new here !!
Can’t figure out how to install nvidia drivers (Linux-Zen)
(In normal Linux kernel it is fine.)
so i will list many thing i tried to do.
here is the output of inxi -Faz

as you can see apparently no drivers are available for my nvidia card
i checked with nvidia-smi and i get this
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running.
i tried to install the drivers with nvidia-inst
[salihberatyercel@salih ~]$ nvidia-inst

I also using nano added the ibt=off kernel parameter to the existing default grub command line in /etc/default/grub. Then updated grub with sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
and it seems to work i mean i don’t get any errors but inxi -G shows me the same result but still i do get some errors and nvidia-smi still fails
any ideas on what might be the problem ?Thank you.
