NVIDIA 32-bit library

Greetings!

First of all, I'm an arch newbie, so go easy on me.

I have installed the base arch installation on my laptop and gotten to the point of installing a desktop environment.
I'm following tutorials and the wiki on the xorg page and it lists that I need to run this command

sudo pacman -S nvidia nvidia-utils lib32-nvidia-utils

However, I get response: Target not found: lib32-nvidia-utils
I have edited /etc/pacman.conf to include multilib repository (and ran pacman -Sy afterwards).
My question is - has the lib32 been moved somewhere? How do I acquire it?

if you have enabled multilib, you can install it easily by pacman -S lib32-nvidia-utils, I have GT610 and I installed lib32-nvidia390-utils without any problem. I was able to launch .NET WPF apps that uses DirectX after that.

Post your pacman.conf.

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you forgot to uncomment the [multilib] line

You should also read this as a matter of urgency...

That was actually it, thanks! When uncommenting the line, I thought only the mirror link actually mattered.

Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
