** Description changed:

+ [Impact]
+ 
+ nova driver conflicts with the nvidia proprietary driver, and a 6.17
+ stable update in proposed enables nova_core module, which finally makes
+ nova usable resulting in it taking over.
+ 
+ Nova and nova_core need to be blacklisted in the nvidia driver(s) just
+ like nouveau.
+ 
+ [Test case]
+ 
+ Install the updated nvidia driver, reboot the machine. Nvidia should be
+ used and working.
+ 
+ [Where problems could happen]
+ 
+ we should have covered all the drivers, but if for instance the
+ blacklist file does not get updated for whatever the reason, then the
+ update has no effect
+ 
+ --
+ 
  I installed the latest Nvidia driver in Resolute:
  
-   ubuntu-drivers list
-   sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia-driver-590-open
-   sudo reboot
+   ubuntu-drivers list
+   sudo ubuntu-drivers install nvidia-driver-590-open
+   sudo reboot
  
  but the system now boots to a frozen black screen.
  
  An SSH login reveals the wrong kernel driver in use:
  
  $ lspci -k -d::300
  01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GA107 [GeForce RTX 3050 
6GB] (rev a1)
-       Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device 4131
-       Kernel driver in use: NovaCore
-       Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau, nova_core, nvidia_drm, nvidia
