, and then reboot the system.And reinstall the nvidia driver. use

pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils

. When I reboot the system again, I found that I still can't into the X window.

Re: the kernel&the nvidia card

What is the card?  The latest nvidia driver drops support for some cards and you may need to use the nvidia-340xx driver.  However, the journal will give a clear error message if this is the case.  Please check.
