It's supposed to be relatively simple but something I did probably screwed up the settings in a really weird way so that it wasn't recognized by the nouveau open-source drivers.

sudo pacman -S nvidia

If I ever reinstall (Probably will) then I'll try those
Metario:
also: lpt don't dd a disk without double checking the disk your doing it to, for me I accidentally DD'd the first 2 partitions of my disk, loving up alignment and making none of my data retrievable :(
At least it was a relatively clean install of arch
AndroFox:
gentoo
if you don't use it you are dumb and WRONG
Mr Queeba:
this thread make me forget around with linux distros, like mint and debian and stuff
i painfully installed arch linux manually and installed a desktop environment over it which sure was a good challenge
