I don’t know why but every now and then my display completely freezes, completely except my mouse which is still able to navigate the screen, but can’t interact with anything. No hotkey works, seems that the keyboard freezes too when this happens, except for the one that lets me enable the leds of the pc. I use a msi laptop with hybrid graphics card if that can help
Which nvidia card and what driver version.
Gtx 1650 ti, driver version 535.104.05
I had problems with 535-104, couldn’t launch into Hyprland, tried a quick install of Plasma (though with hypr XDG) and that was laggy as all hell. Dropped back to 535-98 and it runs smooth again.
I used to get these random freezes where mouse movements are still possible, but everything else seems to freeze. Haven’t got any recently and it occured very rarely.
However, if I switch to another tty, using ctr + alt + f key and then switch back to the original tty, it seems to fix itself. It might not be related, but worth trying it out.
It’s not that rare for me, it happens at least one time a boot
Windowing system? Desktop environment? Errors / warnings in Journald/logfiles? You need to provide a fair bit more info than you have already given Arch, by default, doesn’t have a mouse-driven interface…
Have you switched into a tty and updated relevant packages to be sure it’s not just a known bug that is already fixed?

Do you want me to send the output of
journalctl
?I’ve already update packages through tty but i don’t think it changed something
