Unless there's a hope of the rpmfusion package getting updated, it looks like it.
I'm not really familiar with akmods, but maybe you could just update the source
somehow.
I'm not a systems administrator. I need someone to step me through the full switch in

Reminders:
This is a dual boot (Fedora-38 and windows-7) stand-alone work station; it's 11 years
old.
I have only one old kernel, and no rescue kernel.
The graphics card is an nvidia GeForce GTX 660.
(anything else?)
