Latest changes on supported Cards by Driver versions:
newly moved to legacy:
* 390xx --> works with xorg 1.20 (current version) GeForce 400/500/600 series cards [NVCx and NVDx] * 340xx --> NOW! works with xorg 1.20 (current version) GeForce 8/9, ION and 100-300 series cards [NV5x, NV8x, NV9x and NVAx]So called unsupported drivers:
* 304xx --> last supported xorg 1.19 (needs downgrade) For GeForce 6/7 series cards [NV4x and NV6x] * 173xx --> last supported xorg 1.15 (needs downgrade) GeForce 5 FX series cards [NV30-NV36] * 96xx --> last supported xorg 1.12 (needs downgrade) GeForce 2/3/4 MX/Ti series cards [NV11, NV17-NV28] nvidia-installer only support latest driver og nvidia-390xx as all others are not supported by latest Xorg anymore and will need to permanent downgrade xorg-server to last working version, what may will brake in future.To see what driver version support your card go here:
http://www.nvidia.de/Download/index.aspx Put in the info for your card, and choose Linux-64bit as OS.All supported cards for nvidia-390xx:
http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/134262/en-usFor GeForce it seems to show all drivers only on this page:
https://www.geforce.com/drivers/nvidia-installer
nvidia-installer -h
usage: nvidia-installer [-h] [-b] [-f] [-t] [-q] [-n]
Antergos Nvidia Installer v1.12
optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-b, --bumblebee For Nvidia Optimus cards (Bumblebee + proprietary Nvidia drivers)
-f, --force Force driver installation even if a nvidia card is not detected
-t, --test Test mode. Nothing in your system will be modified
-q, --quiet Supress log messages
-n, --nouveau Restores nouveau (open) nvidia driver
Install Nvidia proprietary drivers
sudo pacman -S nvidia-installer
testrun for installation:
nvidia-installer -t
if it does not putout error run real install:
sudo nvidia-installer
this will install nvidia proprietary drivers and do some configuration inside /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
sudo systemctl reboot
And you are on nvidia drivers!
If you want KMS (no requirement)
to get maybe want gnome-wayland-session working you need to hack a bit after this... adding nvidia-drm.modeset=1 to the kernel parameter inside grub:sudo nano /etc/default/grub
and put nvidia-drm.modeset=1 inside as you can see here:
# GRUB boot loader configuration GRUB_DEFAULT=0 GRUB_TIMEOUT=5 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR="Antergos" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="nvidia-drm.modeset=1 resume=UUID=*****save the file [Ctrl+X] and rebuild the grub.cfg:
sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg
edit mkinitcpio.conf to get the module inside:
sudo nano /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
and edit like this:
# vim:set ft=sh # MODULES # The following modules are loaded before any boot hooks are # løpe. Advanced users may wish to specify all system modules # in this array. For instance: # MODULES="piix ide_disk reiserfs" MODULES="nvidia" # BINARIES ....save the file as above... rebuild kernel image:
sudo mkinitcpio -p linux
replace linux with linux-lts if you are using lts kernel....
reboot again and you shpuld have early boot enabled...
this will make it possible to run a GNOME session on wayland together with GDM instead of lightdm...
Avoid screen tearing
and i have nvidia-settings installed and run it on login with this to get better video quality:nvidia-settings --assign CurrentMetaMode="nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }"
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA/Troubleshooting#Avoid_screen_tearing
You can add this to /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf like this:
Section "Device"
Identifier "Nvidia Card"
Driver "nvidia"
VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation"
Option "NoLogo" "true"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "nvidia"
Option "metamodes" "nvidia-auto-select +0+0 { ForceFullCompositionPipeline = On }"
Option "TripleBuffer" "on"
Option "AllowIndirectGLXProtocol" "off"
EndSection
Bumblebee
is also possible to install with this little helper:sudo nvidia-installer -b
This will look like this:
nvidia-installer -b 2017-12-17 17:02:29 [INFO]: Antergos Nvidia Installer v1.12 2017-12-17 17:02:29 [INFO]: All logs will be stored in /tmp/nvidia-installer.log 2017-12-17 17:02:29 [INFO]: Installing bumblebee driver... 2017-12-17 17:02:29 [INFO]: Removing conflicting packages... 2017-12-17 17:02:29 [INFO]: Downloading and installing driver packages, please wait... 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: Adding user antergos to bumblebee group... 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: gpasswd -a antergos bumblebee 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: Adding user antergos to video group... 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: gpasswd -a antergos video 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: Enabling bumblebeed.service service... 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: systemctl enable bumblebeed.service 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: Patching /usr/share/applications/nvidia-settings.desktop... 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-nvidia.conf not found. That's ok. 2017-12-17 17:04:43 [INFO]: Installation finished. You need to reboot now!
Troubleshooting:
If you have trouble booting into the graphical system on bumblebee you can blacklist nvidia and nouveau drivers from grub kernel boot line: adding modprobe.blacklist=nouveau if you do not have nvidia drivers installed, will boot with intel GPU only. adding both: modprobe.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nvidia if you have nvidia drivers installed, as it may load nouveau-driver from kernel (if not already blacklisted). Simple press "e" (for edit) when you reach grub boot menu:- Use the arrow keys to find the line looks like this: linux /vmlinuz=linux root=UUID=...... rw quiet resume=.... (… = long snake of numbers)
- put systemd.unit=multi-user.target right after rw like this:
rw modprobe.blacklist=nouveau modprobe.blacklist=nvidia resume=.... - Press Ctrl+X to boot with this parameter.
