I installed kde plasma(wayland) before. Installed nvidia with `pacman -S nvidia` and everything works fine, my steam games are running great, the 5k display is recognized correctly after installing the nvidia driver.
But I don't like kde plasma, the desktop experience is not good enough. I want to try out gnome.
So I reinstalled the whole system with gnome. Just like the way I installed arch with plasma. It works fine when I use nouveau driver, but the screen resolution is not right. I cannot choose 5k resolution. So I installed nvidia with pacman. Rebooted. And it didn't work. The screen is black.
Flashed the drive and I tried again fresh. I thought I might have something to do with the nouveau driver conflicting with nvidia driver. So this time I installed nvidia driver in the live env after I arch-chroot, and edited `/etc/modprobe.d/nvidia.conf` to add `options nvidia-drm modeset=1`. Rebooted. Everything seemed normal. nvidia-smi is returning the expected results. I installed gnome with `pacman -S gnome` and `pacman -S gnome`. Rebooted. Then Just black screen.
Then I edited `/etc/gdm/custom.conf` to disable wayland. `sudo pacman -S xorg-server xorg-xinit xorg-xrandr`. Rebooted. Still black screen.
I am able to get into tty to do some dubugging.
Has anyone encountered the same issue as I do? What should I try next?
