[ 1711.740] (EE) NVIDIA: system's kernel log for additional error messages and

Maybe try this then? Kernel log can be read via

$sudo dmesg

or

$journalctl -k

I'd recommend journalctl, best to also append -b to only get the kernel logs for the current boot

For easier navigation enter a / and input nvidia, this will search your journal. Press n to go to the next result and shift + n to go to the previous one

    I installed the nvidia-beta drivers (Arch) and tested out Starfield. All is good. Then next time I try to startx, I get X failed to start etc.

    Did you reboot after changing to the beta driver? If you did not you were still using the previously installed nvidia driver, unless you manually reloaded the nvidia kernel modules via rmmod and modprobe (I'd discourage doing this though, rebooting is way less error prone)

    I certainly do. Most social media algorithms feed you content that it thinks will generate interactions. Lemmy does not do that which results in whatever you decide to post having more meaning because there's no stupid and/or manipulative machine deciding wheter your post is or isn't worth seeing
