nvidia vs upgrade

<newbieAlert>
I'm seeing this when I try to run pacman -Syu

:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace kernel26-firmware with core/linux-firmware? [Y/n]
resolving dependencies...
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: xorg-server will be installed before its nvidia-utils dependency
looking for inter-conflicts...
warning: removing 'libgl' from target list because it conflicts with 'nvidia-utils'
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: ati-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2
:: intel-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2
:: mach64-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2
:: mga-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2

:: savage-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2
:: sis-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2
:: tdfx-dri: requires libgl=7.8.2

Can I just remove these pkgs? I assume they're there because I started with Archbang and that needs a fairly general setup. Is there a way to remove pkgs which aren't usable on a particular system?

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Re: nvidia vs upgrade

What graphic card do you have? if it is nvidia, just remove all the ati/intel drivers, and their -dri packages.

OK thanks, I'll remove those and see if I can get further.
