packages will not differ on booting different kernels
But as you are using dkms version it will build modules for every installed kernel… so it could be it does currently not work on zen to build the module-- or it is not working when booting zen … you could check the output when of building modules when reinstalling it:
sudo pacman -S linux-zen
and check the output to see if it may give error on building nvidia modules
I reinstall linux-zen check nvidia and no issue
I reboot on linux-zen and my sceen is blocked with this information
but you do not check the exact output of building modules… this would be what you should have shared here
ok
how can i do to display this information, i’m sorry but i m not an expert with command lines
PS: i boot on lts kernel
you can copy paste from the terminal output … and post here in code tags
sorry which command i have to put on terminal
I’m sorry, I feel like I’m wasting your time.
and I think my explanation does not help you

could give some info too about installed modules…

this is not for nvidia module but it should show similar if it was running fine…

does not look like ut fails to build modules for zen… but it i see others have the same issue with Nvidia and zen Kernel currently
yes i saw on various forum that there is a problem with the zen kernel.
well i think i will stay with lts and wait maybe new update for zen kerne
or change to AMD graphic card
thanks so much to have tried to help me
we have a nice community

What’s wrong with using the current kernel?
