Having Trouble Setting Up NVIDIA GeForce RTX2060 on Fresh Installation

Hi, I'm currently having trouble on setting up my gpu. FYI I'm using a laptop which has both intel and nvidia gpu. Everything was working fine before this, I was using hardened kernel and optimus manager. Yesterday I did a fresh installation of arch and I follow the same procedure stated here , but when I switch to my nvidia gpu (using optimus) it logged out and stuck. Yes I'm still able to access to TTY.

The output of nvidia-smi is "No device were found"

Here is the output of my lspci | grep VGA

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 630 (Mobile)
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation TU106M [GeForce RTX 2060 Mobile] (rev a1)

Here is the output for pacman -Qs nvidia

local/egl-wayland 1.1.5-1
    EGLStream-based Wayland external platform
local/libvdpau 1.4-1
    Nvidia VDPAU library
local/libxnvctrl 450.57-1
    NVIDIA NV-CONTROL X extension
local/nvidia-dkms 450.57-2
    NVIDIA drivers - module sources
local/nvidia-settings 450.57-1
    Tool for configuring the NVIDIA graphics driver
local/nvidia-utils 450.57-2
    NVIDIA drivers utilities
local/opencl-nvidia 450.57-2
    OpenCL implemention for NVIDIA

Here is the output for journalctl -u optimus-manager
