So, i successfully installed steam! nice right

well nvidia decided to fuck me over after i rebooted, and i'm stuck at the blank screen with a cursor blinking after choosing arch linux. i ran nvidia-xconfig prior to this. i'm actively googling the problem now, but any tips you guys could drop are welcome!

    Nvidia always breaks things. I had the same problem a while back. Are you perhaps running gdm? I fixed it be installing the plymouth compatible version of gdm since that's an older version of gdm that did work. Kind of hacky but it worked.

    @Sjoerd nah, i'm using lightdm+the generic gtk greeter. i just installed ubuntu last night and honestly, the high is worth the pain here - i got steam and everything installed in no time
