nVidia selected to install but not installed

Issues & Assistance
1

I just installed the Plasma version after selecting to install the nVidia drives only to boot to the desktop after installing to find I don’t have the nVidia drivers. You have a easy install for the drivers and the appropriate kernel modules? Thanks.

The Grub menu option where you see Nvidia first is going to boot the ISO with Nvidia drivers, but there is an option in the installer to install Nvidia drivers. However it is easy to install Nvidia drivers afterwards too.

Could you share the output of

inxi -G

so that I can help you with the driver installation?

I will be back in an hour

Decided to save us both time and reinstall. Figured since with what I had originally selected to preinstall only taking 9 minutes that reinstalling and adding the drivers an a few other things would maybe take 12 minutes at max. Up and running and looks good on x11. Even with the updates for Wayland it still needs work from the KDE devs. Really happy with the base.
