On January 13 I installed an update that upgraded to kernel-desktop-5.10.7-1.mga8. Thinking that the problem might have been fixed, I tried to switch back to the Nvidia driver using the MCC. The MCC no longer recognizes that there is an Nvidia driver for the graphics card at all. It skips this screen:
entirely and will only select the nouveau driver.
In the past, when the Nvidia driver was broken, the system would allow me to try it anyway. Now it doesn't seem to see the nvidia driver at all.
The nvidia make.log from January 11 starts out with:
- Code: Select all
DKMS make.log for nvidia340-340.108-15.mga8.nonfree for kernel 5.10.6-desktop-1.mga8 (x86_64)

Has anyone else seen this issue?
Thanks
