Your NVidia driver is from NVidia’s repository. The latest prebuilt _kmod-nvidia_ packages that they seem to have, seem to be for kernel version `513.9.1-545.23.08-3.el8_9`. In addition, they do have _dkms_-related packages that should call `dkms` to build kernel module for new kernel in your machine. I would remove the nvidia packages and then reinstall them with: ```plaintext dnf module install nvidia-driver:latest-dkms ``` (in hope that dkms can then do the “_right thing_”) * * * Option B is to postpone the install of new kernel version until NVidia’s repo has built driver for it. ---

I will go with option B, so for now I will only do dnf update --security ---

Note that kernel can very well be tagged as “security”. An alternative: `dnf up --exclude=kernel\*` ---
