Research direction
Start by reading make.log and nvidia-installer.log alongside config-6.19.0-fractal.txt to identify where the NVIDIA module build fails under Linux 6.19. Reproduce the .run-file installation on Ubuntu 25.10 with the reported kernel configuration, then confirm that the module builds successfully.
