Nvidia and Steam

Hello, I'd like to play Risk of Rain 2 on steam on arch (which I know is possible because my friend did it though he has AMD and I have Nvidia).

But for some reason nothing I tried to do worked, which is why I eventually landed at

vulkaninfo --summary

Which gave me the following output:

ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : loader_scanned_icd_add: Could not get 'vkCreateInstance' via 'vk_icdGetInstanceProcAddr' for ICD libGLX_nvidia.so.0
WARNING: [Loader Message] Code 0 : terminator_CreateInstance: Received return code -9 from call to vkCreateInstance in ICD /usr/lib/amdvlk64.so. Skipping this driver.
ERROR: [Loader Message] Code 0 : setup_loader_term_phys_devs:  Failed to detect any valid GPUs in the current config

Re: Nvidia and Steam

Please post the outputs of

$ pacman -Qs vulkan 
$ lspci -k
$ pacman -Qs nvidia

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Re: Nvidia and Steam

While we can wait for the confirmation of Lone_Wolfs outputs the errors we have show that you likely pressed enter while installing steam which will have gotten you amdvlk which in turn breaks every other loader.

Remove amdvlk and lib32-amdvlk and install lib32-nvidia-utils instead.
