nvidia open source driver and zen kernel

[aucub]

I selected the zen kernel and nvidia open source drivers, but installed nvidia-open instead of nvidia-open-dkms.

Can confirm. You have to manually add nvidia-open-dkms to the additional packages list. Perhaps we can check if a selected kernel is custom and add necessary dkms packages implicitly?

Perhaps we can check if a selected kernel is custom

I think this sounds like a good approach!

I have a couple ideas on implementing this when selecting nvidia drivers.

• Have a list of custom kernels (like zen, hardened, etc.) and checking if any of them are selected.
• Have a class Kernel and an Enum attribute (with enum types like Mainline, Custom) and check that attribute while selecting an nvidia driver.

Although I prefer the latter way, it might be an overkill for something this simple. Suggestions?

This one we have already I believe. It's a list within Installer.
