I installed Fedora 33 KDE and i installed the nvidia drivers with this command sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia. But on boot i get this message: nvidia kernel module missing falling back to nouveau
If i check if nvidia driver is installed with this command dnf list installed '*nvidia*' it shows that the driver is installed:

The nouveau driver is also black listed in grub.
This is the info for my laptop:

My laptop supports only legacy drivers, like 390.xx and 340.xx. Is it possible that fedora is trying to install newer version of nvidia driver and this is causing the problem?
