Lately I've been having issues with NVidia drivers sometimes working and sometimes not working; and after update does not load drivers at all.
I have 3 kernels installed and I tried them all: linux-zen, linux-xanmod, linux-xanmod-edge
There is a thread here with a similar problem
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=263188
I just ran garuda-update and rebooted. Nvidia drivers do not load.
