Hi Daniel,

Thank you for the quick response. You're right on both points:

1. Regarding NVIDIA:
You're correct - I apologize for the confusion. Looking back at the logs, 
NVIDIA DKMS did succeed. The kernel installation failure was solely due to the 
openvpn-dco-dkms issue. I should not have listed NVIDIA as a failure.

2. Regarding openvpn-dco-dkms source:
I'm using OpenVPN Inc's official repository which is providing version 
0.2.20250801-2+noble:

```
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/openvpn-packages.list.distUpgrade:
deb [arch=amd64 signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/openvpn.asc] 
https://packages.openvpn.net/openvpn3/debian noble main
```

This version is not compatible with kernel 6.17.0-14. Ubuntu's patched
version 0.0+git20231103-1ubuntu1.2 (which includes the fix from bug
#2133511) is available, but I have the OpenVPN official package
installed instead.

Resolution:
I should downgrade to Ubuntu's patched version:

```
sudo apt install openvpn-dco-dkms=0.0+git20231103-1ubuntu1.2
```

And hold the OpenVPN repository version or disable that source.

This is indeed a local configuration issue, not an Ubuntu bug. I
apologize for the noise. Should I close this bug report or would you
like me to document the workaround for others who might have added the
OpenVPN official repository?
