I have tried adding ibt=off to my boot parameters, to no avail.
Relevant details::
System Info:
Kernel: 5.15.50-1-lts
WM: i3
CPU: Intel i7-8550U (8) @ 4.000GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce MX250
GPU: Intel UHD Graphics 620
lspci -k | grep -A 2 -E "(VGA|3D)" Output:
00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation UHD Graphics 620 (rev 07)
Subsystem: Xiaomi Device 1701
Kernel driver in use: i915
--
01:00.0 3D controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP108BM [GeForce MX250] (rev a1)
Subsystem: Xiaomi Device 1701
Kernel modules: nouveau
pacman -Qq | grep nvidia:
lib32-nvidia-utils
nvidia-utils
__________________________________________________________________________________
Things I have tried:
Following the Wiki Tutorial and trying the suggested trouble shooting
Switching to the LTS kernel (just in case - though not only for the nvidia card.)
Tried both nouveau and newer nvidia drivers
A bunch of other random things that did not work.
Other Info That May be Helpful:
journalctl -p 3 -b relevant output:
Jul 02 13:55:12 quick-steel systemd-modules-load[882]: Failed to find module 'nvidia-uvm'
nvidia-xconfig output:
Using X configuration file: "/etc/X11/xorg.conf".
VALIDATION ERROR: Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Device section "Device0" must have a Driver line.
WARNING: Unable to parse X.Org version string.
ERROR: Unable to find any GPUs in the system.
ERROR: Unable to write to directory '/etc/X11'
nvidia-smi output:
NVIDIA-SMI has failed because it couldn't communicate with the NVIDIA driver. Make sure that the latest NVIDIA driver is installed and running
I'm still scratching my head and would love to be able to use my GPU. I have been using arch on this machine for about 4 months and am certain this problem has always existed, I just didn't notice it until I tried to run a game recently. Then I started investigating it. I reinstalled my whole system today (not only for this issue. I wanted a full encrypted system and decided I wanted to switch to LTS. For now. And delete an old windows partition and gain the rest of my drive back -- digression over).
Any and all suggestions are welcome. I am not new to Linux, but relatively new to Arch and have never had to tinker with graphics drivers before, having had no real issues until now. If I need to amend any more info, I will do so upon request. Thanks for reading my post and any suggestions.

He was once a man, then he was almost killed, a mob hit gone wrong. Now we can rebuild him, we have the tools, we have FOSS, he will be better. He will be Alex, he will live again!

You also need a kernel module…
Kernel: 5.15.50-1-lts

You're absolutely right. I can't believe I forgot that when reinstalling with the LTS. I suspect the error was from the 5.18 kernel bug I mentioned above then.

I suspect this has solved the issue! I was really wondering if it wasn't the kernel bug I've read about then what was it. Thanks for the help.

The ibt situation will only affect some 5.18 kernels, not the LTS one.
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.
