power off, then when you power back on the first splash screen is the bios screen. As soon as it appears hold down the shift until the grub menu appears.
I performed all the steps without any problem - unfortunatelly, the 6.05* package was not loaded till now. The dnf list installed kmod-nvidia* command only shows 5.19 packagesā¦
Also tried your suggestion - was unfortunatelly not working out. It says - no packages to install were foundā¦
I guess you could just download and install the packages manually ā¦
$ wget https://mirror.fcix.net/rpmfusion/nonfree/fedora/updates/testing/36/x86_64/a/akmod-nvidia-470xx-470.141.03-3.fc36.x86_64.rpm
$ wget https://mirror.fcix.net/rpmfusion/nonfree/fedora/updates/testing/36/x86_64/k/kmod-nvidia-470xx-470.141.03-3.fc36.x86_64.rpm
$ dnf update ./kmod-nvidia-470xx-470.141.03-3.fc36.x86_64.rpm ./akmod-nvidia-470xx-470.141.03-3.fc36.x86_64.rpm
If you went through all those steps, and the list you posted shows the akmod-nvidia-470xx.x86_64 3:470.141.03-1.fc36 package installed but it fails to build a kmod-nvidia-470xx-6.0.5 package then it seems an issue with
- the age of the driver
and - the new kernel.
I donāt think there is much more that can be done except possibly updating the currently installed driver with the one from the testing repo.
dnf upgrade akmod-nvidia-470xx --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing
and try the version suggested by michael since it seems to work for him. Note that the version you have installed ends in -1 and the version michael is suggesting ends in -3. Probably specifically tweaked for the 6.0 kernel.
It says Pakage akmod-nvidia-470xx is available but not installed
Ahā¦ you must have removed it.
replace update by install and try again.
It says the Pakage akmod-nvidia-470xx is not installed and cannot be actualizedā¦ Might the version change Jeff suggested help?
change āupgradeā to āinstallā and do not install the kmod-nvidia package. The system will build that for you from the akmod package which then may cause conflicts.
Sorry - mixed something up
What should I do then, if I should not install? Just click no and restart the system?
sudo dnf upgrade akmod-nvidia-470xx --disablerepo=rpmfusion* --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing
should work if you did not remove the earlier installed nvidia packages. If you did remove them then
sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia-470xx --disablerepo=rpmfusion* --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing
should work.

Error:
Problem: conflicting requirements

I corrected my post above to only disable the potentially conflicting rpmfusion repos.
So - enabling the repos like Michael suggested might create potentially conflicting rpmfusion repos?
When 2 different repos that contain the same or similar packages are enabled there is always a potential for conflict. In the case of the rpmfusion repos and the nvidia drivers they are available in rpmfusion-nonfree, rpmfusion-nonfree-updates, rpmfusion-nonfree-nvidia-driver, and rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing. Dnf would have to determine which was most appropriate if it were able to select from all potential sources, while having the user select the repo of choice prevents dnf making a possibly inappropriate choice.
It is always better to avoid potential conflicts if possible, and the way I structured that command it prevents conflict since only the rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing repo would be available for use doing either the install or an upgrade. That command line also makes that one repo available and the others disabled only while that command is running. It does not affect normal use of dnf for other purposes.
Usually preference seems given to the repo from which a package was initially installed, so that is also a factor with trying to get updates from a new repo.
There shouldnāt be any conflicts. Install akmod-nvidia-470xx and the dependencies will be installed as needed.
$ dnf repoquery --requires akmod-nvidia-470xx --enablerepo=rpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testing
/bin/sh
/usr/bin/kmodtool
akmods
kmodtool
nvidia-470xx-kmod-common >= 3:470.103.01
nvidia-470xx-kmod-common >= 3:470.141.03
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-470xx-kmodsrc >= 3:470.103.01
xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-470xx-kmodsrc >= 3:470.141.03
So is the problem just that the 470xx driver is only on the testing repos right now and hasnāt yet been pushed to the other repos? I havenāt had any problems until this kernel update but this one broke me. If so, I can wait. Do I need to do anything other than just keep doing dnf update?

yes, if you donāt want to update from the ārpmfusion-nonfree-updates-testingā repo, just wait till it gets pushed to ārpmfusion-nonfree-updatesā.
The cache has (I think) a 48hr timeout so if you actually want to check the state of the repo now, you need to expire the cache first.
$ sudo dnf clean expire-cache; sudo dnf update
