Nvidia-smi command not found, but nvidia driver installed

I’m running a Optimus laptop. My system is Fedora Silverblue 39. The Nvidia version is 545. I have secure boot disabled. I followed the official RPM Fusion guide to install Nvidia.

For some reason, using Prime render offload couldn’t use Nvidia to launch apps anymore. Usually, right clicking application would show the GPU switch option before, but now this option is gone. DRI_PRIME=1 didn’t work. For example, use DRI_PRIME=1 flatpak run com.valvesoftware.Steam still runs Steam in Intel. Putting nvidia-smi shows bash: nvidia-smi: command not found.

Here is the output of nvidia-bug-report.sh.

I guess your nvidia gpu is broken, please check your warranty status.
