I running TW on 6.3.9-1-default and until that version the Nvidia drivers works 

```
❯ lspci | grep -i nvidia
0000:65:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GP107GL [Quadro P600] (rev a1)

```

However with every kernel version after this, there is a prompt for MOK, which is accepted and then, after boot screen is black. The Nvidia drivers are not loaded.
I tried the steps in the documentation and also installed nvidiaG07 but I think there was the same problem

Please try to access such a system with ssh. Then rmmod the nvidia modules, if already loaded.

  rmmod nvidia_drm
  rmmod nvidia_modeset
  rmmod nvidia_uvm
  rmmod nvidia

Then reset dmesg.

  dmesg -c > /dev/null

Then load again nvidia

  modprobe nvidia

Run and attach dmesg output

  dmesg
