My eGPU is working just fine? It's Radeon though.

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:40 PM

what is required from my side (logs/dmesg/what else?) so that someone who knows could see what the problem with egpu support is ?

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:41 PM

could that be Thunderbolt to USB4 issue?

KKamquat My eGPU is working just fine? It's Radeon though.

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:42 PM

Acrtually it is not. at least not for me
I have Legion Go + Razer Core X with Radeon RX 7900GRE in it.

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:42 PM

Odd. I'm using a Razer Core X with a 7600xt

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:43 PM

I have heard that the bottom port doesn't work for eGPU for some people

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:43 PM

there are some bananas with detecting descret GPU. No problems in windows.

KKamquat I have heard that the bottom port doesn't work for eGPU for some people

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:43 PM

purposly using only upper port.

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:43 PM

I literally just plugged it in and it worked

KKamquat I have heard that the bottom port doesn't work for eGPU for some people

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:44 PM

I wanna be your friend

what did you install or configured additionally so that egpu would work? does it work for you out of the box?

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:44 PM

You just gave me hope!

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:44 PM

It worked out of the box, yes. I can't check anything right now though since I'm not home.

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:46 PM

MMrHorda when are you planing to be home? 😄 and what Bazzite version do you have?

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:48 PM

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:48 PM

Desktop mode, I haven't actually tried it in game mode. I used an external display

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:49 PM

is it possible that my card somehow is not friendly with amd driver then? hmmm

Kasher_CS•7/18/24, 7:49 PM

Bazzite is updated and should have no problems

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:50 PM

Installing right now. will be testing. again no sleep for me tonight

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:50 PM

Thank you all! you jsut gave me hope!

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:52 PM

you can check in terminal if you have both GPUs working. Run

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep renderer

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep renderer

and

DRI_PRIME=2 glxinfo | grep renderer

DRI_PRIME=2 glxinfo | grep renderer

and see if you get different results (or it might be 0 and 1, I don't recall.)

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:55 PM

will try again. it was 0 and 1 for me

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:56 PM

@Mister Fluffles Do you have secure boot configured? not sure if it would have any relations.

Kamquat•7/18/24, 7:57 PM

I do, but I don't think it should matter

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 7:57 PM

i will configure this time it too. is there a manual how to properly do it?

don't run it w/ DRI_PRIME=1

Kyle Gospo•7/18/24, 9:26 PM

switcherooctl launch glxinfoswitcherooctl launch glxinfo

Kyle Gospo•7/18/24, 9:26 PM

which, based on your output

is the equivalent of:

MrHordaOP•7/18/24, 9:30 PM
