Hey guys,
I'm trying to get Kernel mode setting on my fresh Arch install. It just doesn't work. Here is my systemd-boot entry
title Arch Linux
linux /vmlinuz-linux
initrd /initramfs-linux.img
options nvidia-drm.modeset=1 root=PARTUUID=7c4a9f15-4159-864f-868c-7fa970dc697b rw
I've also added the nvidia modules to my mkinitcpio modules (and rebuilt the images)
I'm not sure what else I can check, any suggestions?
I'm also seeing this on boot. Possibly related...
[ 3.647020] nvidia-gpu 0000:01:00.3: i2c timeout error e0000000
cheers!

What's your definition of "just doesn't work" ? If you expect a high res console that isn't inherently related to KMS and not expected to be fixed by that setting. What this should allow you is at the very least switching between a VT and a graphical session properly as well as using wayland sessions for things that support nvidia.

Yeah - I was expecting a high res terminal.
I realise now I'm not going to get this with nvidia and systemd-boot
cheers

I'm having this issue, and it is related to KMS. Using systemd-boot, if the menu is displayed (i.e. timeout is set or a key is pressed in the brief interval when timeout is unset), I get a low-res terminal regardless of the modeset setting. If the menu was not displayed (i.e. timeout unset and no key hit), I get the high-res terminal if nvidia-drm.modeset=1 is present, low-res otherwise. Any ideas why the menu being displayed would affect this, and any ideas of a workaround?

If you're booting the same initramfs, fix your bootmanager config.

Otherwise you might require https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ke … _KMS_start

This is my loader.conf:
timeout 3
console-mode max
default arch-mainline.conf
Same results with console-mode max and unset. I'll look into early KMS.
EDIT: Realized I pasted an entry and not the loader.conf.
