From 8a929f603fc5c99f8fd59e9e150c1a702e9a4165 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Softer Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 14:02:32 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] Fix sway+nvidia confirmation dialog (#4481) (#4485) * Fix sway+nvidia confirmation dialog (#4481) Two bugs in the Sway+Nvidia driver confirmation: 1. The boolean was inverted - confirming "yes, I'm okay with issues" reverted the driver to the previous choice instead of keeping it. 2. The warning triggered for any Nvidia driver, including the open-source nouveau driver which is officially supported by Sway. Add GfxDriver.is_nvidia_proprietary() and is_nvidia_nouveau() methods so the warning fires only for nvidia-open-dkms (proprietary userspace). * Address review feedback (#4485) - Drop is_nvidia_nouveau() helper. It is not called anywhere yet; can be re-added when a consumer lands. - Collapse the Sway+Nvidia confirmation result handling into a single expression now that allow_skip=False guarantees a boolean answer. --- archinstall/lib/hardware.py | 13 +++++++++++++ archinstall/lib/profile/profile_menu.py | 5 ++--- 2 files changed, 15 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/archinstall/lib/hardware.py b/archinstall/lib/hardware.py index 09b3eb5f..2cfdb706 100644 --- a/archinstall/lib/hardware.py +++ b/archinstall/lib/hardware.py @@ -68,6 +68,19 @@ class GfxDriver(Enum): case _: return False + def is_nvidia_proprietary(self) -> bool: + """ + True for Nvidia drivers that ship proprietary userspace components. + Currently only NvidiaOpenKernel (nvidia-open-dkms): open kernel module + paired with proprietary userspace.
