I tried to run the bootable USB, and selected the proprietary nvidia driver - I have a 1080ti. The booting process ended up in a black screen, and I couldn't access tty. There would be instances where I could see the terminal when trying to access the tty, but this would immidiately go back to being black.
I can boot with the opensource driver. This PC runs just fine with Garuda Dragonized, proprietary driver.
I am a little confused considering that the maintainer of Wayfire is certain that I should be able to boot into Wayfire with a 1080ti provided the version of Wayfire is above ~0.40.
Has anyone booted with proprietary nvidia drivers on Garuda Wayfire? Anyone with a 1000-series nvidia card perhaps? BIOS settings?
Did you miss the part where I explicitely stated that I cannot get into tty. Have the courtesy to spend at least half your attention on the issue, rather than blindly attacking my effort.
I know, the statement was to point out that I am able to use other distributions on the same workstation. Providing as much information as possible.
And no, you are wrong on Wayland not working with Nvidia there are several users of wayfire on the wayfire repository that are on single nvidia-gpu rigs.
Presumably you can get into the live session, where you could have grabbed your garuda-inxi to provide more information for the forum helpers to review.
I encourage you to edit your post and remove the insult. I understand you may be frustrated, but this is bad form.
The distribution doesn’t matter as much as the display server if you are using Nvidia hardware. If you really want to use Wayland, get a different graphics card.
I will go out on a limb, and say that garuda-inxi won't help one bit on debugging the issue, we need to find a way get me tty or someone with experience needs to tell me exactly what to do. This opinon on top of the ignorance got me frustrated. Please understand that I am really tired of these condescending replyes on Arch communities, especially when it is founded on ignorance. The mod bot is saying I can edit the flagged post, I can't.
Opinion: Pointing out someones lack of attention, and thereby lack of respective intellegence (using the i-word) shouldn't be flagged; vote me down all you want. This is literally the definition of wasting peoples time. I'll admit that we were both offenders. And, I am sorry.
Anyway, here is what you guys really want, it won't help (prove me wrong, if you want to):
The garuda-inxi is a requirement on technical help requests on the Garuda forum. You have been a forum member for quite some time, so you should be well aware of this expectation.
Do not call other users “idiots” in the future on our forum. This is considered a personal attack and is unacceptable on the Garuda forum. That is why your post was flagged by a community member.
Your compliance to forum posting rules–and your willingness to do so–go a long way here, in “Arch communities,” and any forum I’ve been in going back a long ways.
I couldn’t begin to list the large number of experienced Garuda users & forum members (including a number of Archers) willing and able to help anyone here, and not just newcomers. Whether your intelligence feels insulted or not, you are getting off on the wrong foot in this forum.
Nevertheless, welcome to Garuda Linux! May your days be filled with really cool shit.
You guys are extremely imperative, it is offputting. No empathy provided whatsoever; shame on you.
Obviously I was reporting a bug, and asking for any insight on upcoming nvidia support for Garuda Wayfire.
Some people here are actually willing to help even if I don't comply with the rules all the way, and, fyi, I did give all the relevant information for the issue. I will call it out when people make a dumb comment, don't help if you don't want to; I don't need your help. Please take your moral imperative elsewhere.
We can close this discussion (if you want). @librewish was kind and actually did something productive with his free time contrary to everybody else.
