[BUG] fastfetch breaks tty when reading the "Display" variable
General description of bug:
- What happened: at first it will work fine, it will print the log, the os' name, the kernel version, etc. but when it's time to print the "Display" variable, nothing is printed and instead the screen goes black with no input until I switch to another tty. after that I would need to go into another tty and then back to the tty it was ran on for it to work.
- What should happen: it should NOT make my screen black
- Fastfetch version used: 2.15.0 (x86_64)
- Did it work in an older version: no
- Where did you get the binary: dnf install fastfetch
- Does this issue still occur in the latest dev build? No
Often helpful information:
Screenshot: You can see in the video that for a split second the screen does show half the fastfetch output before going black https://github.com/fastfetch-cli/fastfetch/assets/71827944/dcf030b6-685c-42e6-b52b-67bba5e03473
The content of the configuration file you use (if any): there isn't any.

As can be seen in the video above, fastfetch flashes on the screen for around a frame showing the last succesfully printed variable is the "shell" variable. The nexted one is supposed to be the "Display" variable but instead of showing that it just black screens.
Okay so it isn't the display variable? I disabled it and it is still problematic.
I can reproduce it. Problem occurs not only with display variable --> also with GPU. I guess everything which reads GPU/Monitor info. Important additional info: Problem exists only if following kernel parameters are set: nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1
With this combination it works: nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=0
Important additional info: Problem exists only if following kernel parameters are set: nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=1
With this combination it works: nvidia_drm.modeset=1 nvidia_drm.fbdev=0
This suggests that it is a NV driver bug. One may report it to Nvidia.
