Failed units:
that was after i did this:
sudo pacman -R garuda-nvidia-prime-config
because it breaks the dependency with garuda-config earlier, i don’t remember correctly (i did it last night) but one of them also breaks the dependency with lib32-nvidia-utils so i remove it too :
sudo pacman -R lib32-nvidia-utils && sudo pacman -R garuda-nvidia-config
then i did
sudo pacman -S nvidia-470xx-dkms
it went through successfully, and the last one i did
sudo pacman -S nvidia-prime
but what i’m not sure about is.. i tried to install back the garuda-nvidia-config , garuda-nvida-prime-config , lib32-nvidia-utils and even when i tried to install the nvidia-open-dkms they all conflicts with the new nvidia-470xx-dkms so i assume i don’t need to?
i’m not sure about the nvidia-open-dkms and if i really need to install it, i tried it to install it before and after i install the nvidia-470xx-dkms, but they were both automated to the nvidia-550x version.
so anyway, i reboot after that, and it continue to weird me out.

i also tried that with running game, and it’s still the same, and it’s just static text, i remembered it should be updating every second?
did i do something wrong?, is it a big issue? or am i just overthinking it all..?
they all in green are they correct?
