Reboot your computer and it should be working.
If it does not, try:
- lowering your monitors' refresh rate, as this can stop the flickering altogether
- installing the 535xx versions of the drivers, as later (545, 550) can cause flickering with XWayland
- these are available for arch via [the AUR here](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages?O=0&K=535xx)
- using the [Nouveau driver](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Nouveau) as mentioned above
## Fixing suspend/wakeup issues
Enable the services `nvidia-suspend.service`, `nvidia-hibernate.service` and `nvidia-resume.service`, they will be started by systemd when needed.
