I've been seeing warnings about kernel verification under device security after installing Nvidia drivers from third-party repositories. I'm curious if this happens with all Linux distros that don't come pre-packaged with Nvidia drivers. Can anyone share their experiences?

Yeah, it seems like any distro that uses the Nvidia driver will show that warning, regardless of whether they come with it by default or not.
Just a heads up, if you cross-post about this topic, it's nice to mark it as such for clarity. Check out this link for more details.
If you're looking for a smoother experience with Nvidia drivers, consider trying distros like Nobara, Bazz, Pop OS, or Garuda. They're designed with tools to manage Nvidia drivers easily!
I'm on Ubuntu right now and haven't had any issues. But I'm interested in understanding more about Linux and these driver warnings.
I specifically noticed it on Fedora after adding the RPM Fusion repositories, but didn't see it on Ubuntu since they let you choose proprietary drivers during installation.
