ACPI Error: No handler for Region [VRTC]

[Alexander Whillas]

From sniffing around seems to be something Kernal related specific to the recent Razor Blade laptops with GPUs.
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=205665

I don't think its Xorg but its graphic related? Fully documented here with screen shot

Tried to register on bugzilla.kernal.org but since i'm not compiling my own Kernal they say its Ubuntu problem?

Hi, I have a Razor Blade laptop with a 20 series Nvidia GPU, but I have Void Linux installed, never had Ubuntu and I am getting the same error. My SDD keeps failing to be recognised as bootable, which is particular to these laptops.

I am being affected by this issue as well. My machine fails to boot at all, providing the following error after GRUB
