Were you previously using a 5.19 kernel and the new kernel is a 6.0?
The problem
is NVidia's proprietary driver isn't working, and the fallback driver
is too crude
to support more than one display or more than 1024x768 mode or
possibly 1280x1024,
either of which stretch screen objects horizontally, and usually
provide a much
lower screen resolution than the displays' optimums. Try reinstalling
the NVidia
drivers to fix it.
How do I determine which kernel I'm using now?
uname -a
Before this afternoon's patching, I was using whichever kernel would
have been patched/installed by the previous weekly patch ("dnf upgrade",
run on October 27). I was not using the nVidia proprietary driver, but
the free one (kmod?).
That is merely the result of compiling the proprietary driver. It's not
a free one.
When doing weekly patches, usually after the "dnf upgrade" completes, a
CPU-intensive compile "akmod"? runs for a few minutes. I see that in
"kSysGuard". This afternoon, I saw no such process in kSysGuard" after
the "dnf upgrade" completed.
akmod is the process that compiles the source into the kmod package that
you see installed. You can try running the akmod process manually to
see what's going wrong, but others have already said the driver version
you have is not compatible with the latest kernel and needs updating.
