Issue Description:

I’ve been experiencing persistent issues with brightness and display on my Fedora workstation. Sometimes, the brightness becomes very low, and I can’t fix it without rebooting the laptop. This issue also occurred on Ubuntu, and it happened twice recently.

Just a few minutes ago, my display went completely black, and I had to hold the power button to shut down and restart the laptop. Here are the relevant errors from the log:

nvidia 0000:01:00.0: [drm] Cannot find any crtc or sizes

...

ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [_SB.PEP.DETY], AE_NOT_FOUND (20240827/psargs-332)

...

ACPI Error: Aborting method _SB.WMID.WMAA due to previous error (AE_NOT_FOUND) (20240827/psparse-529)

These issues don’t occur consistently, making it difficult to reproduce them. I can perform all tasks normally, including gaming, without encountering these problems most of the time.

If I cannot resolve this issue once and for all, I may revert to Windows 11. Any suggestions or solutions would be greatly appreciated.

      I only experienced screen blackness once after reinstalling Fedora; I have not experienced the low brightness issue. The problem is that I do not encounter this problem frequently and do not know how to replicate it.
