    NVIDIA Driver Searching Page

    Then lookup the available NVIDIA Driver:

    Finally, for the latest Release run:

    sudo dnf install dkms-nvidia

    Instead, for the Legacy ones:

    sudo dnf install dkms-nvidia-390

    Or again:

    sudo dnf install dkms-nvidia-340

    And in case if you do Not find in the Repo just the Last then take the Nearest one…

    And Possibly to Configure the X Server after Setup run:

    nvidia-xconfig

    Last, to Load your barely New Graphics Driver Reboot with:
