This is just a guide to hopefully improve your search for a solution.</em></p> <h3> Steps: </h3> <ol> <li>Set up Fedora to work with <a href="https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/Secure%20Boot" rel="noopener noreferrer">Secure Boot</a>.</li> <li>Get and use the Nvidia driver installer from the <a href="https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/" rel="noopener noreferrer">official Nvidia website</a>.</li> <li>Using the location defined during the Nvidia installation, find the <code>.der</code> file and import it using <code>mokutil</code>. <em>(You should be familiar with this step after following the Secure Boot setup in step 2.)</em> </li> <li>After importing the key with <code>mokutil</code>, reboot and follow the prompts (see step 2 for details).</li> <li>Enjoy your Nvidia drivers!</li> </ol> <h3> Resources: </h3> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/drivers/unix/" rel="noopener noreferrer">Official Unix Nvidia Driver installer</a></li> <li><a href="https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/Secure%20Boot" rel="noopener noreferrer">Fedora Secure Boot Instructions</a></li> <li><a href="https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-35-nvidia-kernel-module-missing-falling-back-to-nouveau/72357/2" rel="noopener noreferrer">Same Problem / My inspiration</a></li> </ul> <h3> My current Fedora kernel version: </h3> <p><code>Linux fedora 6.11.3-200.fc40.x86_64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Thu Oct 10 22:31:19 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux</code></p> fedora nvidia tutorial linux Marco D.

Why is this a problem? Well I tend to like foreign, new, and shiny stuff! Learning many things but mastering none is a hell-of-a-pain, but it's fun! I'm yet to find what my calling is in the computer science bizz. That's why I want to use this Dev.to account to document whatever shenanigans I come up with! Also, it makes learning fun when posting about it in a casual, no-pressure kind of way, heck, I can even abandon this account if I wanted to haha <em>(I hope my motivation stays to not let that happen)</em></p> <p>But anyways, starting today, I will be re-learning python in the context of API development using flask! Why? Because I will need these skills to develop something for our senior thesis. Oh, and did I mention that this is my last year in college? Yey for me! I will soon be unemployed, lol! </p> <p>But all jokes aside, wish me luck in our thesis, and wish me luck on my computer science journey! </p> Marco D.
