[RESOLVED] Stuck on boot, nvidia-utils bug

Recently encountered this nvidia pachage dependancy bug and in my infinite wisdom i decided to remove nvidia-utils and reinstall it. I did look this up before-hand where someone else on here had solved the issue by removing and reinstalling, which i thought would just work. I didn't remove and reinstall anything other than nvidia-utils.

Now I'm stuck on boot, just a black screen at startup. Is there a grub command that can save me or is my only fate to reinstall arch from the beginning?

Try to boot the multi-user.target (2nd link below) in doubt along "nomodeset" - you'd get a console login.

Alright I booted to multi-user.target, updated nvidia-open in the terminal and now everything works fine. Thank you very much!
