All the screen issues cleared up, but I lost wireless networking. There's no wireless device, it seems. The networking widget just says no network connections available. I tried pluggin in a Realtek usb wireless adapter, but it wouldn't work either. In /var/log/messages, the USB adapter is recognized as a Realtek device, but that's about it. I grepped /var/log/messages for NetworkManager, and I find that it says it loaded with "success."

You have omitted details that might allow us to understand the issue:
* what specific "screen issues" did you have with nouveau?
* which Fedora version are you using?
* which Nvidia version did you install?
* is your system fully updated (including vendor firmware)?
* hardware details ("inxi -fzxx" or a link to the same model at the
LHDB <https://linux-hardware.org>.
The LHDB may show you if others have conflicts between Nvidia and wifi.
