Yeah like, I should note

Astral•6/19/24, 8:23 AM

my desktop is still bazzite

Astral

Astral•6/19/24, 8:23 AM

nix is just on my laptop

Astral

Astral•6/19/24, 8:23 AM

because bazzite does great for what I want from my desktop

except this issue I'm having with glitchy video output but I think it might be this issue https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/3352

would explain why this only seems to happen in GPU accelerated situations where I have direct scanout enabled

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:39 AM

is this the glitchyness I see when changing the nightlight state?

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:39 AM

or the occasional complete screen blank flickering on my displayport monitor?

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:39 AM

or both?

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:42 AM

aah

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:42 AM

i see

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:42 AM

it's the night light issue

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:43 AM

tbh the complete screen blanking on the displayport display might be because the cable had a mouse chew through it a bit and or the screen failing in other ways

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:45 AM

it's weird

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:45 AM

oh that wasn't even properly in focus

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:45 AM

oh well

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:49 AM

I haven't seen it outside of the night light, but maybe plasma just has less situation it will happen then GNOME

Mervius

Mervius•6/19/24, 8:50 AM

I have had similar-looking glitchyness across the whole screen a few times, but I think that was the driver crashing restarting and then freezing the system because the maximum clock speed was set to 2900 when the spec is 2500

Mervius

MMervius it's weird

Valerie

Valerie•6/19/24, 10:14 AM

Mine does this

Mervius

MMervius or the occasional complete screen blank flickering on my displayport monitor?

Valerie

V

Valerie•6/19/24, 10:15 AM

Mine has also been doing this

Valerie

V

Valerie•6/19/24, 10:15 AM

Glad it's not unique, was very worried about my VRAM failing

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:15 AM

the weird thing is the on-screen display also turns off when it goes black if it's open when it happens

Valerie

V

Valerie•6/19/24, 10:15 AM

Weird

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:16 AM

just turns black, then normal, then black, then normal

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:16 AM

a few times

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:16 AM

then stops

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:16 AM

doesn't happen often, only had it happen twice

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:17 AM

can't really plug the second monitor into HDMI since the 7900 xtx only has one hdmi port

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:17 AM

since I disabled my integrated graphics

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:20 AM

tbh the only problem I was actually concerned about was the way too high max clock speeds

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:20 AM

not sure why it defaults to 2900

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:21 AM

think it completely broke the syste, a few times after I upped the too low power limit

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:22 AM

I think that shouldn't happen now that I lowered it to 2550 now, though

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:22 AM

I hope

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:22 AM

if the card doesn't just ignore the value

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:23 AM

the specs say it should be able to boost to 2565 and 355W of power

Mervius

M

Mervius•6/19/24, 10:23 AM

but I set it to 2550 and 340W just to be extra safe that doesn't happen again
