I’m able to get to the BIOS on my desktop. But when greeted by the boot loader to choose between Arch or Arch fallback, after choosing, I lose display.

Sometimes I can get display, but its not consistent. Draining my computers power by unplugging the power cord and holding the power button works sometimes. Sometimes a simple reboot will work.

I have an Asus b550m-plus motherboard. It was working great with Arch until recently.

Edit: it uses by press e at the boot loader then putting nomodeset at the end, but the display is choppy compared to when its able to boot without it.

Edit: Installing linux-lts and directing my bootloader to it worked. I didn’t even need to install linux.

    I would like to try the amdgpu-pro-installer package, but yay - v amdgpu-pro-installer with or without verbose gives me a blank response right away.

    If I use a fake package name, it does the same. If I use another existing one, it works.

    From my understanding, I may be able to use PKGBUILD instead of yay?
