Cannot install drivers for NVIDIA

thanks for the full output.

OK so the problem looks like something is off with the repository you are trying to download from but I don't know if it is a CDN issue in China or something else. Modularity is fragile and it could be multiple items outside of Alma or your power to fix. I would try the following: ``` dnf module list nvidia-driver ``` and see if there are other streams than 'latest' available. If there are, try installing one and see if it errors out also. If it works then you have a solution for the time being. If it doesn't I would say try looking for a contact on the nvidia website and explain the problem you are seeing with where you are located etc. They may have a bad CDN copy which you are getting pointed to or some other issue. -- Stephen J Smoogen.
