To limit further confusions, why not post the output of pacman - xorg related and mesa related?
Offline
iv got to look into how to do that. but if anyone reads this prior to me responding again with that output and wants to give me a hint ill take it lol.
Offline
pacman -Qs <package name> // or partial name
For example, to see what is installed with "nvidia" in the name:
pacman -Qs nvidia

You should check out a few of the sections in https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pacman

On my system, linEGL.so.1 is owned by nvidia-libgl. I would reinstall nvidia-340xx-libgl because that file is part of the package according to https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … 0xx-libgl/

re installed nvidia-340xx-libgl
still only have libEGL.so but not libEGL.so.1
is there anyway to download or create this file independently?

I think you just had really bad luck when reinstalling nvidia-340xx-libgl.
Note the versions in your output above, they're not the same for your different nvidia packages (340.58-2 and 340.65-1).
Update with 'pacman -Syu' !
If it still doesn't work maybe reinstall all your nvidia packages.

please post the output of
sudo ls -la /usr/lib/nvidia/libE*
and
sudo ls -la /usr/lib/libE*
and
sudo ls -la /usr/lib/libG*
Update with 'pacman -Syu' !
I think we should reduce the risk, to completly mess up his machine https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … g_packages .

Resauce, partial updates are unsupported: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … nsupported
'pacman -Syu' _is the way_ to update your system.
It should be issued on a regular base (e.g. daily, weekly).
The warning in the wiki means that you should not do it, just before you have something important to do, e.g. a presentation.
Also see: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pa … l_commands
I believe that you were able to solve this on your topic, but how exactly did you do ?
Did you create symlinks manually ? If you did, this is actually something that you shouldn't do...

rebootl: i did a system update via pacman -Syu , the resulting update updated my nvidia stuff but it did not fix the issue. i am including the updated list of installed nvidia and mesa stuff.

Resauce: here are the outputs you asked for.
sudo ls -la /usr/lib/nvidia/libE*
funny to note that the nvidia folder does have the libEGL.so.1 that I seem to be missing, but its still showing in the openbox log i created that libEGL.so.1 is not found

type
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/nvidia/libEGL.so.1 /usr/lib/libEGL.so.1
reboot and then post what openbox log says (unless it is not the same output).
openbox log might say that it can't find libGL.so.1 either.

you were right that is said it couldn't find the libGL.so.1
so I assume i would just run the same command, but substitute libGL.so.1 instead
edit: i ran the same command with libGL.so.1
IT WORKED! X IS ALIIIIIIVE!!
Thank you so much guys!!!!!!
resauce , hbar , trilby , reboot , mrunion , itman I really appreciate all the time you guys took to help me with this problem.
