I have a live disk of Garuda and my system has Nvidia 2080 card. The system loads the live disk and I see Nvidia there. Upon selecting the install the screens go away and I am left with a purple.
There was a similar topic but I do not have windows.
Name of the live.iso?
Checksum of the iso checked?
Which application was used to create the boot stick?
Is the BIOS set to UEFI-only?
Fast Boot and Secure Boot disabled in the BIOS?
It is not entirely clear where the problem occurs, in the grub menu where you can choose between proprietary nvidia drivers and open source drivers or in the calamares installer in the live environment?
If you can boot into the live environment, please post your garuda-inxi from there.

Using the gaming garuda-dr460nized-gaming
I did manage to get to enable live disk by changing the non nvidia grub noveau driver to 0. It gets me to the os but the resolution is horrible.
I used balenaEtcher to make the live disk.
Bios is set to UEFI and I can install the OS but after install and reboot it goes back to black screen

Please answer all questions.
The open source driver nouveau is not even loaded in the live environment, for whatever reason.
The AMD iGPU is not displayed in the garuda-inxi. Go to the BIOS and enable the AMD iGPU.
My recommendation would be to remove the nvidia gpu from the machine and try the garuda installation with only the AMD iGPU activated.
If that works without issues, then you can then reinstall the nvidia GPU, install the nvidia drivers and test whether everything is working without issues.
Iâll eat my 
if this isnât another Nvidia problemâŠ

I did get the display resolved by updating and re building grub
GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080
GRUB_GFXPAYLOAD_LINUX=keep
In the past there have been occasional problems with the gaming version.
Try it once Garuda Linux KDE Dragonized LTS Kernel ,with the garuda-gaming app you can then install everything for games later.
To burn the ISO, just try dd.

An observation on my own setup. First I have the latest BIOS and update once a day. If I ârebootâ after an update, the display will âsometimesâ have the splash screens change in resolution (it will boot though) or boot just fine or be blank and the computer will stay in that condition. In which case I have to hold the power button till it shuts down completely.
My routine now after an update is to shutdown completely, then startup.
This works for me with out fail (the resolution remains the same and it boots up with the screen working) is to âShutdownâ take a breath then âStartupâ.
I do know when I restart that part of the mother board stays running (my USB ports never drop their voltage). When I had a USB optical drive attached reboot wouldnât even start until I turned the drive off.
Could it be that you are confusing something?
I think that the BIOS is not updated daily by your motherboard manufacturer.
Try something like this
alias grub 'sudo sed -i "/GRUB_GFXMODE=auto/c\GRUB_GFXMODE=1920x1080x32,1024x768x32,auto" /etc/default/grub && sudo update-grub'
to get your personel values back.
If an update change the grub resolution, the resolution changed, no matter how you shutdown the computer.
Thats normal, just check you BIOS settings, USB power always on, or something like that.
Also in BIOS, check your boot sequence, without a bootable DVD inside your drive, the system boot failed.

Iâm just indicating that the BIOS is up to date. The motherboard was a new release, so there were many BIOS updates in a short amount of time. I expect this to taper off with time.
As for my âpersonal valuesâ, they came back on their own ( it was only the splash screen). My settings were correct upon completing login.
The situation with the USB optical drive was the ârebootâ wouldnât âstartâ, was the command itself to reboot was ignored and hung until I powered the drive off ( this should not have been mentioned here).
I really only wanted to indicate that a complete power off (via shutdown) then power on, may or may not, correct a blank screen.
This happened to me several times, but subsequent reboots (without updates) always worked. Even the splash screen resolution (Iâve seen this on other PCâs) goes back to ânormalâ on itâs own. I apologize for all the detail, just wanted to indicate what handled it for me.
Thatâs only half the battle.
There are no drivers installed for the nvidia GPU:
Install the drivers, otherwise the GPU is useless. Simply open the âGaruda Settings Managerâ â Hardware Configuration and click on âAuto Install Open-Source Driverâ (nouveau/limited performance) or âAuto Install Proprietary Driverâ (nvidia driver with full support and performance) and then reboot.

So took the plunge but before that I advise anyone to take a snapshot. Installed proprietary drivers as instructed above, installation was successful and post restart got a black screen.
Nothing is working as it should for you⊠problems with the proprietary drivers and open source drivers in the live.iso and after installation the same thing with the drivers.
Have you ever thought about buying an AMD GPU? 
I assume that you are in a restored snapshot, try installing the lts kernel and the appropriate nvidia drivers:
sudo pacman -S linux-lts linux-lts-headers nvidia-lts
then reboot and select the lts kernel in the grub menu, boot with it and then post the output of:
inxi -Gxx
If you get a black screen again, can you open a tty (e.g. CTRL+ALT+F2)? If so, what happens after you log in and try startx?
2 Likes
Shure?
For TTY it must be Ctrl + ALt + F3 until Ctrl + ALt + F6.
Ctrl + ALt + F1 is your workspace.
Ctrl + ALt + F2 show the login screen (no function possible).
So far on my notebook.

Sure, for example, but what do you get with this configuration?

So I tried the above command to get an install of the kernels and got the black screen after reboot. I did get a log file posting video related below.

I have tried about each and every way to enable nvidia and so far no luck. I did notice that in loading the latest driver manually certain files are not built as the latest version adds a -3 to the end and the script is not able to find the folder to generate the libraries.
I guess my only question here is for blender or pytorch apps wanting to access the gpu and the rest stick to the built in gpu is that possible.
Other interesting topic is that noveau driver has to be modeset to 0.
I did update the bios and secure boot is disabled.
Kernel command line: BOOT_IMAGE=/@/boot/vmlinuz-linux-zen root=UUID=ef5d0188-8297-49a4-9092-0167f8b21286 rw rootflags=subvol=@ quiet loglevel=3 nomodeset ibt=off
Option ânomodesetâ âŠwhy this ? Delete it â update grub. (my mind)
You are using at the moment also the nouveau driver and many stuff is in this release not implemented for your nv104.
Take out the nvidia gpu ( for the moment ).
After your bios update â related options are enabled/disabled inside bios ?
(take a look special inside AMD PBS page)
Boot in os and pls post inxi again if you like to work with your installed os.
Next steps coming then.
Or use a new live iso. (post from SGS; without nvidia card pls)
https://iso.builds.garudalinux.org/iso/community/dr460nized-lts/
Install â all is fine ? â then next steps
