Hello, so l’m a noobie and l’ve been trying to install Nvidia drivers for my RTX 3060 on Linux kernel version 6.6.63-1-Its.
So like the title says, whenever I’d boot into Linux, l’d go through all the boot logs but would always get stuck on Lok Reached target Graphical Interface. I know that is is my problem because I was messing with the Nvidia graphics setting in my previous attempt to try to update the drivers or to see what drivers were installed. I actually installed EndevourOS yesterday and got it up and working, and I did the Nvidia install, but I’m pretty dumb and I still wanted to update the drivers and check the version, resulting in my rebooting and getting my issue.
The first I did was press ctrl+alt+f2 to get back to the terminal.
My first solution was to use the wiki here https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA
However when I got to the part to run the command:
install - Dt “$builddir/tools/bpf/resolve_btfids” tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids
It’d result in the error:
install: cannot stat
"tools/bpf/resolve_btfids/resolve_btfids’: No such file or directary.
So instead I tried this other tutorial online and followed it through: https://github.com/korvahannu/arch-nvidia-drivers-installation-guide?tab=readme-ov-file
But it didn’t do anything and I’m still at square one, however I did notice that when I’d run
sudo mkinitcpio -P
It’d come up with the errors:
ERROR: module not found: ‘nvidia’
ERROR: module not found: ‘nvidia_modeset’
ERROR: module not found: ‘nvidia_uvm’
ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_drm"
But I’m not really sure how to fix those errors. I tried reinstalling the drivers again after I saw the errors, but I’d still didn’t work and give the same 4 errors.
