nvidia 390 dkms build error exit code 2

Hello!

Just installed artix so I'm attempting to install the proper nvidia drivers.

ran yay -S with all of the 390 packages from the aur, and all of them seemed to install fine except the dkms. yay -Q | grep dkms says that they're installed but I don't think the installation was successful:

Reply #1 –
You are missing the file nv-misc.h. It's in nvidia-390xx-dkms.

pacman -F nv-misc.h
galaxy/nvidia-390xx-dkms 390.157-7
    usr/src/nvidia-390.157/common/inc/nv-misc.h
