DX11 could not switch resolution and Wayland/X11 problem

Hello i get this message everytime and i did update garuda everytime but its still like this and also i get this error :

Switching to resolution 1920x1080 failedScreen: DX11 could not switch resolution (1920x1080 fs=1 hz=0)

i guess because of that message and vulkan

and also it has a relationship with this topic
and the main cause is my nvidia driver
here is my garuda-inxi

Hey! If it is Lutris or just Wine/Emulation, just try to Fix your Virtual Desktop

1. Open Lutris
