Then what could it be? Do you know any solutions?
Well, what can I do now?
What could be what? The title of this topic says “secure boot issue”, but so far you provided zero evidence of some issues related to Secure Boot. You also never show any errors that made you think of secure boot.
If the question is - “why nvidia is blacklisted” - start with finding out what configuration file does it and whether it belongs to some package.
grep -r nvidia /etc/modprobe.d /usr/lib/modprobe.d
My bad, when I looked at some forums on why I couldn’t load nvidia drivers with secure boot, people were saying I had to register kernel or sth. My main question is, how can I load nvidia drivers with secure boot.

Sorry, I am not familiar enough with bbswitch or suse-prime, so hopefully someone else can chime in.
@exalted remove the bbswitch packages that are installed and lock so they don’t get re-installed. Then run dracut -f --regenerate-all and reboot.
sudo zypper rm bbswitch
Reading installed packages...
'bbswitch' not found in package names. Trying capabilities.
No provider of 'bbswitch' found.
Resolving package dependencies...
Nothing to do.
dr_exalted@2400-1A00-B020:~> sudo zypper al bbswitch
Specified lock has been successfully added.
Is this how to remove bbswitch?
You should have started with finding out what package owns this file.
rpm -qf /usr/lib/modprobe.d/09-nvidia-modprobe-bbswitch-G04.conf
suse-prime-0.8.15-1.3.noarch
So this is what I got, what should I do after finding the package?
I removed the package and dracut -f --regenerate-all ran this command like you said. What should I do next?
@exalted So what is the output from;
cat /proc/cmdline
inxi -Gxxz
modprobe -c | grep nvidia
So what is your end use for this system?
sudo cat /proc/cmdline

Basically everything, games, works, etc. I got bored of windows and now trying to make this my propriety OS.
@exalted You need to be root user for the modprobe command…
Can you also show the output from;
zypper lr -dE
zypper se -i nvidia

@exalted So it’s using the intel gpu and no driver for the nvidia gpu. Can you check the directories and show the files present;
ls /etc/X11/
ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
ls /etc/X11/
xdm xinit xorg.conf.d xorg.conf.install
ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/
00-keyboard.conf
@exalted What model laptop is this system? Are there any BIOS settings about the iGPU and dGPU?
Can you try at the grub menu, press e to edit, then arrow down to the line starting with linux/linuxefi, press end and add nosimplefb=0 and then press F10 to boot and the post the output from inxi -Gxxz again.
This is custom build pc.
So, this is what I see after “press e to edit” I don’t see “linux/linux/efi” like you mentioned.
Third line from bottom reads
linux /boot/vmlinuz-......
