Latest update Nvidia bug?
Hmm, this update seems to have broken my install in a way. GDM loads but starting a DE fails, returning it back to GDM. I think it has something to do with Nvidia? Checked the logs and I see a lot of
Gnome-session-c trap int3 ...
Gnome-session-b trap int ...
Invalid ELD data byte
Freed GPU:0
Allocated GPU:0
Things I've tried
- Reinstalling nvidia drivers (did not work)
- Booting to budgie (same errors)
- Falling back to nouveau (did not work)
Things I guess I've ruled out
- Not nvidia (can't change the title now I guess)
I suspect it's gnome
Here are some log snippets
[ 17.899367] traps: gnome-session-c[965] trap int3 ip:7ff232695411 sp:7ffcf6be2360 error:0

Edited: Fixed formatting and added updates
Edit 2:
The culprit was Plotinus. Removing it fixed the issue.

It's a bit of a worry when a single 3rd party program can break the system. Nvidia is a bit flaky on manjaro for some reason though.
I mean it's a GTK module and a lot of things use GTK...
