Subject: Re: [Nouveau] NVIDIA GP107 (137000a1) - acr: failed to load firmware

Starting with kernel 5.6, loading nouveau without firmware (for GPUs
where it is required, such as yours) got broken.

You are loading nouveau without firmware, so it fails.

The firmware needs to be available to the kernel at the time of nouveau loading.

Cheers,
