I had assumed that you were using the rpmfusion packages and that nouveau was running X11. I have only F35 and expect to stay with that for some months. My "reinstall" was based on https://rpmfusion.org/Howto/NVIDIA, and for recent cards (Current GeForce/Quadro/Tesla) the equivalent would probably be {{{ sudo dnf reinstall xorg-x11-drv-nvidia akmod-nvidia sudo dnf reinstall xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-cuda sudo systemctl reboot }}} Good luck!
