Is this a problem with my graphics drivers, my monitor, or a lack of knowledge?
Bazzite is the first Linux distro I've used, so I apologize in advance if this is a little bit of a basic issue - I'm not very familiar with the environment but I am working to learn as much as I can. I'm including my neofetch for system hardware info, and I have 2 monitors connected to my graphics card - an Asus VZ249QG1R, which is connected via HDMI as a secondary display and has no issues, and a Dell Alienware AW2518HF connected via DisplayPort as my primary display. Both are, obviously, connected through the ports on my GPU. The problem is with the Alienware display, and I don't know if it's because the monitor is a bit on the older side or if it's an issue with my graphics drivers, but when I have my system running for a few hours the display will flicker to fully black every once in a while for a few seconds at a time for seemingly no reason. As mentioned, since I am new to Linux as a whole, I'm not sure on how to diagnose this issue and was under the impression that distros packaged driver updates in more often than not, though I am realizing that was probably me misunderstanding information I found when researching what distro to use before building this PC. Do I need to track down some proprietary AMD software for a driver update? Do I need an open-source tool to update the drivers to make sure my graphics card is working correctly? Is it just an issue with my specific monitor that is only showing after I swapped from using HDMI for it on my old system to using DisplayPort on this one? I genuinely don't know, and the documentation for Bazzite focuses on system software updates (which I have done a couple of times to no avail on this issue) over any form of driver updates; on top of that, all other resources I find online are either focused on more well-known & widely used distros, assuming a base level of familiarity with how Linux works that I have not yet developed which leaves me confused and not knowing wtf to actually do, or a mixture of both. Does anyone have any advice?
