Failed to start nvidia powerd service after update

nvidia does not create nor install those packages. The package is created by rpmfusion to support the nvidia drivers.

I beleve that the nvidia-power package provides the following and without those services sleeping or suspending would not work properly. I think it also only works for certain GPUs so may not be useful in all cases.

# rpm -qal xorg-x11-drv-nvidia-power
/usr/bin/nvidia-powerd
/usr/bin/nvidia-sleep.sh
/usr/lib/modprobe.d/nvidia-power-management.conf
/usr/lib/systemd/system-preset/70-nvidia.preset
/usr/lib/systemd/system-sleep/nvidia
/usr/lib/systemd/system/nvidia-hibernate.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/nvidia-powerd.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/nvidia-resume.service
/usr/lib/systemd/system/nvidia-suspend.service
/usr/share/dbus-1/system.d/nvidia-dbus.conf

I see, thanks for the clarification. My Fedora would often wake up by itself during suspension, but the screen is still black, and the LED indicator on case’ power button is off. The only way is to force shut down.

I checked
systemctl status nvidia-{suspend,resume,hibernate}, and all three are enabled but inactive (dead).

I’ve posted the bug on both rpmfusion and nvidia, and am waiting for their further update.
