Also... It's included in all versions starting with Bookworm.

Well... Say that to my live USB I tried booting off of a machine with a very modern nVidia card. I had to create a new boot entry to disable nouveau and install nVidia proprietary graphics into a persistent partition.

I understand nVidia is shit, and doesn't play nice with others. But my point is - it's not always that easy. (I thought it would be! I lost many hours, and pulled out lots of hair!)

The boot entry is for secure boot. It would be required by any distro not just Debian.

It's not related to secure boot (I have that disabled) it's related to nouveu drivers not supporting the 4090 (yet)
