Fix for Starfield unable to launch on NVIDIA GPUs

Nvidia downgrade to 530 doesn’t work on 6.4 kernel
The TKG DKMS package already has an open issue, and it seems like there's a patch for it. Looks like you'll need to manually patch it, though.

Problems with latest hardware on many distros
Stay with Endeavour. Install the DKMS Nvidia drivers from https://github.com/frogging-family/nvidia-all

PSA - If you're having issues opening Steam with the latest Nvidia drivers on Arch
git clone https://github.com/frogging-family/nvidia-all cd nvidia-all makepkg -si

Another HoloISO Fork
If the installer detects no nvidia GPU then it wont install the driver, but you could just reinstall the system and keep your /home directory (your games and stuff) or you install the driver beforehand via nvidia-all aio installer and follow nvidia do's and don'ts from the archwiki. But be warned gamemode is laggy with nvidia (desktop big picture is fine), because valve hasn't enabled video acceleration for nvidia in gamemode yet.

How do I install RTX 3000 series on arch linux
Or you could just clone https://github.com/frogging-family/nvidia-all and run makepkg -si from the directory. Choose your wanted driver branch and choose non-open and WITH dkms when prompted. That will allow you to also use custom kernels (DKMS I mean)
-
Hesitant to swap to Linux as a daily driver.
But mainly I use Frogging Family's github for my kernels and Nvidia drivers. https://github.com/Frogging-Family/nvidia-all Couple commands, a reboot and I'm up for gaming again. Mainly I use this github for more up to date drivers. And you can test the opensource part or vulkan drivers. Vulkan and the normal DKMS driver works fine for me.

Wayland Is Pretty Good
Turns out that Ubuntu 22.04.2 LTS has a library out of sync.[1] No Wayland use of Vulkan on LTS until mid-2024. Apparently fixed in Ubuntu 22.10.
Back to Xorg for now.

Is the AMD experience really that much better than Nvidia?
Why the "" earlier, then? Well, there's Wayland... *Almost everything works as it should, except for native WL apps running on vulkan. It's a known bug that's supposedly being worked on, but with no fix in sight. Vulkan apps running through Xwayland run fine, though. I usually stay on X11, so it doesn't really affect me.

Dell XPS 15 9520 and Ubuntu - A great match with some rough edges
Some Wayland apps were not working due to this issue, but there's a workaround. I set __EGL_VENDOR_LIBRARY_FILENAMES=/usr/share/glvnd/egl_vendor.d/50_mesa.json in my /etc/environment and they run fine now.
