I have a discussion open on Fedora Discussion.
It appears that installing the NVIDIA driver disables other drivers that are used for things such as the in-built display.
Is it possible to load the NVIDIA driver, in addition to other drivers, such as the one for the in-built display?
The installation log is below:
