[SOLVED]: libEGL warning: MESA-LOADER: failed to open simpledrm:

Not quite sure what went wrong here. Suddenly I cannot open an alacritty terminal on Wayland (hyprland-git). Launching from the terminal results in:

❯ alacritty
libEGL warning: MESA-LOADER: failed to open simpledrm: /usr/lib/dri/simpledrm_dri.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory (search paths /usr/lib/dri, suffix _dri)

MESA: error: zink: could not create swapchain
MESA: warning: zink: PERF WARNING! > 100 copy boxes detected for 0x5c1065daf980

I've tried googling the errors to find a possible reason or solution but not resulting in much. Any ideas on where I can poke around to see what's causing this?

Edit: Nvidia, 555.58.02

Edit 2: Solved, I forgot to add

nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1

to kernel params after switching to systemd-boot.
