Description: I am currently using a laptop with an Nvidia discrete card. I am running X using xrandr as of https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/NVIDIA_Optimus#Using_nvidia

After updatin to 267.27, X fails to start outputting the attached log. I tried checking some kernel logs (which I never had to do before today) using journalctl, but didn't find anything regarding X.

Downgrading all nvidia- and lib32-nvidia- packages solves the issue.

Additional info:
* Nvida GeForce GT 635M
* 367.27
* Xorg log attached


Steps to reproduce:
As above.
This task depends upon

The xorg log says "system's kernel log for additional error messages". Can we get that? It's not xorg stuff that's important, it's the nvidia kernel module.

I checked the kernel log, turns out it was my fault for not updating initramfs.
I'm really sorry, thank you for your time.
