Fedora WS. I want to continue using an older version of Oobabooga Textgen WebUI, but the 6.6 kernel build of the Nvidia open source module with the x86 UEFI shim breaks compatibility with one of the Python *Blas packages.

Now I need to figure out how to build the kernel module for a distrobox (podman(docker)) container. Is that even possible when I do not have the ability to set my own UEFI boot lock keys in the factory bootloader?

I'm not 100% positive this machine has the right hardware MUX for running the Nvidia GPU independent of the Intel integrated GPU (laptop) but I really wish I could run the 3080TI completely independent of the display. I only use it for AI.

The documentation for everything Nvidia on Fedora is a mess of outdated info and the information Nvidia provides is all wrong and downright malicious in my experience.

Has anyone gone through this recently or can help me fast track?

"Nvidia Confusion" could also be the name of their new AI powered something something 😅

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
