:: libgl and nvidia-utils are in conflict

I remember that I had to remove libgl when installing the Nvidia driver, has something regarding that situation changed/inverted ?
(Also, I have multilib enabled and 32 bit nvidia packages installed)

You have at least one unnecessary xorg video driver installed on your system. Find and remove it/them.

Grepping "pacman -Q" for nvidia, ati and intel individually do not show anything suspicious under the later two.

[manasij7479@manasijd ~]$ pacman -Q | grep nvidia
lib32-nvidia-utils 295.20-1
nvidia 295.20-3
nvidia-cg-toolkit 3.1-1
nvidia-utils 295.20-1
opencl-nvidia 295.20-1
[manasij7479@manasijd ~]$ pacman -Q | grep intel
intel-tbb 4.0_20111130-1
[manasij7479@manasijd ~]$ pacman -Q | grep ati
kdegames-granatier 4.8.1-1
kdegames-kpatience 4.8.1-1
kdeplasma-addons-applets-weatherstation 4.8.1-1
kdetoys-kteatime 4.8.1-1
startup-notification 0.12-2
telepathy-kde-integration-module 0.2.0-1

What other names can video drivers have ?
Does the lib32-nvidia-utils count as a dupe ? If so, how do I run 32 bit software with 3d acceleration ?

Try 'pacman -Q | grep xf86-video'.

=== Edit ===
Better yet:

pacman -Qgq xorg-drivers

shows which packages from the xorg-drivers group you have installed.

I'm probably getting somewhere.
xf86-video first matched with the remains of the nouveau driver.
I removed that did a reboot.
Now nothing with xf86-video shows up, and "pacman -Qgq xorg-drivers" gives "xf86-input-evdev", which should not be related.

xf86-input-evdev is fine, keep it.
Did the system update go smooth this time, w/o prompts to install libgl?

No.

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lib32-nvidia-utils: requires nvidia-utils
:: nvidia: requires nvidia-utils=295.20

Do you have nouveau-dri installed? If so, remove it.

manasij7479 · 2012-03-16 22:50:06

Thank you very much, that did it.

Btw, should this be added to the wiki ? (@ https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Nvidia )
