For the Kepler (NVE0/GK XXX) series, install the nvidia-470xx-dkms AUR package.Due to nvidia-open issue #282, it does not work on systems that have AMD integrated GPUs. This is currently alpha quality on desktop cards, so there will be issues.Alternatively for the Turing (NV160/TU XXX) series or newer the nvidia-open package may be installed for open source kernel modules on the linux kernel (On other kernels nvidia-open-dkms must be used).If these packages do not work, nvidia-beta AUR may have a newer driver version that offers support.For the Maxwell (NV110/GM XXX) series and newer, install the nvidia package (for use with the linux kernel) or nvidia-lts (for use with the linux-lts kernel) package.

nvidia may not boot on Linux 5.18 (or later) on systems with Intel CPUs (likely only of 11th Gen and onward) due to FS#74886/ FS#74891.

When installing dkms, read Dynamic Kernel Module Support#Installation.
