Re: can't install nvidia drivers

Pacman#Packages_cannot_be_retrieved_on_installation

If certain the package exists, your package list may be out-of-date. Try running pacman -Syu to force a refresh of all package lists and upgrade.

Edit:
At the time of this edit nvidia 555.58.02-3 is in extra and nvidia 555.58.02-4 is in extra-testing.
