Looks like I have the nouveau driver loaded for now:

[nxnk@FREDERIKA Téléchargements ]$ lspci -k | grep VGA -A3
01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP106 [GeForce GTX 1060 6GB] (rev a1)
	Subsystem: ASUSTeK Computer Inc. DUAL-GTX1060-O6G [GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Dual]

the Pascal GPU is no longer supported by the latest drivers. You have to remove the current drivers and install the nvidia-580xx drivers branch.

see Making sure you're not a bot!

these lines should do the job, run those line by line, package xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-580xx-cuda is optional

sudo dnf remove  \*nvidia\* -x libva-nvidia-driver,nvidia-gpu-firmware
sudo dnf install akmod-nvidia-580xx  xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-580xx-cuda
sudo akmods  

then restart the system

But im not sure about the state of my system and it’s update situation

Output of the dnf distro-sync command seems fine.
You could take a look at the optional post-upgrade tasks

And the command rpm -qa |grep -c fc43 should only give a low 2 digit number.
