I've got an nvidia card and I don't want to use proprietary drivers cause they are completely broken for me, but I need vulkan for dxvk. I tried to install nvidia utils but that breaks my system. Where can I get nouveau vulkan?

I have an nvidia card too. As far as the graphics card driver not working, if you are running Ubuntu or something similar, the OS does not install all the dependencies for the graphics card driver correctly unless you force the installation of packages that were held back. And if you've made multiple attempts at this, you're probably going to need to remove the prior installation attempts first.

Yeah I've installed arch over 30 times. I memorized the install process by now
