NVIDIA Driver Issue with Secure Boot Activation on HP Desktop Running Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8.6

Upon enabling secure boot on my HP desktop running Red Hat Enterprise Linux release 8.6, I encountered a system freeze with a blank, dark screen upon boot. As a result, I disabled secure boot to access my machine and reviewed the error log located at /var/log/messages . In the log, I discovered the following message in image (

NVIDIA Driver Version in my desktop – 525.125.06

Isn’t it the nvidia driver comes up with digitally signed certificates ?

Is there a method to ensure compatibility of the NVIDIA driver with the secure boot option?

My kernel version is 4.18.0-372.70.1.el8_6.x86_64 . Is this because of kernel version not compatible with the driver which i downloaded ?
