Hi Takashi,

Thank you for your response. I understand that you suggested uninstalling the
xf86-video-nouveau driver. However, I am unable to do so because my laptop uses
an NVIDIA GeForce 9400M graphics card, which is quite old and is no longer
supported by the proprietary NVIDIA drivers.

Given this situation, I am reliant on the nouveau driver for my graphics.
Uninstalling it would leave me without any functional driver for my graphics
card.

Here is a summary of the current situation:

    Graphics Card: NVIDIA GeForce 9400M
    Driver: nouveau (required due to lack of support from proprietary NVIDIA
drivers)
    Issue: X server fails to start with no screens found error when using the
nomodeset option.

Could you please advise on any alternative solutions or configurations that
might help resolve this issue while still using the nouveau driver? Your
guidance is much appreciated.

Jacopo
