From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Hello Linux people, I need a bit of help. I wanted to leverage the new 545 NVIDIA drivers, but no other OS that I know of has them yet, so I installed Arch Linux using the handy archinstall script. I followed an external guide on how to get NVIDIA cards up and running. This one specifically: https://github.com/korvahannu/arch-nvidia-drivers-installation-guide. And yes, I checked it against the wiki (from what I could understand, the linked guide has no issues). After I rebooted everything went okay. Tested out resource-intesive games and they ran as expected with the proprietary drivers. However (and I don't know if this is a problem related to the drivers), I just tried suspending the KDE Wayland session on my laptop (Forgot to mention that I followed the wiki on how to get nvidia-suspend and nvidia-hibernate set up, and they were set up correctly), but when I tried waking it up, the screen freezes in a black background with only the kde cursor (I cannot move the cursor in this state) so the only option I know of is to forcefully shutdown the system and reboot. I am not very experienced in Linux so I could use some assistance in finding the source of this problem.
