Hey everyone, I've been working with SteamOS on my HP laptop with a GTX 1050. I've updated the kernel and installed the necessary Arch Linux drivers, but the "Discover" store is failing to update because of dependency issues. Someone has already tried getting the NVIDIA drivers working—any advice on how to resolve this? Thanks!

Run pacman -Q nvidia-utils to check installation or outdated versions. If installed, use sudo pacman -S nvidia-utils to update. If outdated, execute sudo pacman -Su nvidia-utils to refresh.

I attempted to update it, but the system reported an error: "installing nvidia-utils (515.57-1) breaks dependency 'nvidia-utils=495.46' required by nvidia"

Did you get the NVIDIA drivers from the official repositories or from NVIDIA’s website?

You likely sourced it from repositories instead of the console.

Interesting point, using my TPE-C hub to link the external monitor causes issues until I disconnect it. All the drivers seem to clash.

The instructions provided do not specify the exact set of directions used for initial driver installation. They only indicate that a certain sequence was followed.

This instruction comes from the Lintel installation guide for NVIDIA architecture on Linux.

The most reliable source for installing on your Arch system is the official Arch Linux wiki page. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/NVIDIA#Installation If the upgrade isn't working, what kernel version are you currently using? Type "uname -r" in the console.
