I just followed the note that’s mentioned on the top of your link and installed the Nvidia driver as dkms package. I originally did that because of trouble with a new driver version and temporary downgrading is much smoother with dkms.
Also never had issues with the DE starting properly after upgrade since then.
I’m usually using
nvidia-betadrivers from AUR because they’re newer, so I just added the hook as an insurance policy.The DKMS drivers are probably the safer option because they’ll handle rebuilding the kernel modules. Even though (like EddyBot said) the kernel and nvidia packages are supposed to get updated together, sometimes you can spam
pacman -Syuat the wrong time and only one package is updated and things go wonky…
