Nvidia GPU randomly deacitvates

I was editing a video in DaVinci Resolve and while editing it just crashed. The error was "GPU could not initialize OpenGL". I check my GPU status by typing in 'nvidia-smi' and it returned, Unable to determine the device handle for GPU0: 0000:01:00.0: Unknown Error
No devices were found.

I'm using an Acer Aspire 5 15 laptop with:
i5-13420H
RTX 2050
32GB DDR4 3200
512GB NVME

Re: Nvidia GPU randomly deacitvates

The symptoms will not explain the cause.
Please post your complete system journal for the boot, eg.

sudo journalctl -b -1 | curl -F 'file=@-' 0x0.st

for the previous ("-1") one.
