Users wishing to use NVIDIA hardware have the following options:
- Use nouveau (free, open source, cool)
- Sign their own copy of the proprietary driver (involves messing with certificates, so not appropriate for all users)
- Disable Secure Boot (note that this is still UEFI)
The NVIDIA driver is proprietary, so of course it's not going to get signed.
The user experience requirement is: user searches for NVIDIA in GNOME Software and clicks Install. No further action should be necessary. We didn't make the NVIDIA driver available from the graphical installer with the intention that arcane workarounds would be required to use it.
