120hz only, no 360Hz option for 1440p@360Hz monitor.
Specs attached. I just had windows 10 yesterday, so I know its not harware related.. But not working on bazzite.
Im using HDMI 2.1

You can check this but I believe AMD does not support HDMI 2.1 only 2.0 in Linux due to licensing restrictions.

:huh:
surely you can use displayport?
I thought DP 1.4 doesnt support 1440p@360hz
It works!
I guess its using some kind of display compression to work
DP1.4 has less brandwith than HDMI 2.1
so im surprised it worked
Thanks for suggestion!

/chatGPT
So I had it running uncompressed on win10 before.
But with same cable doesnt work on bazzite.
DSC is the compression mechanism
It's considered pretty lossless
Oh yup rYcle got it
The HDMI forum banned amd from implementing HDMI 2.1 on Linux because screw you.
Does your monitor/GPU support better than DP1.4?
Because the 7900GRE should support DP 2.1 I believe?
U need special monitor for that. Its not standart. And didnt exist last year when I bought mine. Or if it did, it was much more expensive.
I assumed a 1440p360 monitor would be a special monitor lol
Who sells a monitor with ports that don't support its Max performance
did u even read this? π
It worked prefect with hdmi 2.1 on win 10
Yeah, but if they put on a DP, it should also support the full speed
Is what I'm saying
Otherwise it's kind of false advertising
yeah i dont think they would have included a displayport that cant do what the monitor is capable of
it works, just with DSC
I'm also saying that because your DP cable could also be the problem
im confused what you mean by "you need a special monitor for that"
win10:
HDMI 2.1 and 1440p@360hz uncompressed
Or DP 1.4 1440p@360hz DSC
on bazzite:
HDMI 2.1 only gets 1440p@120Hz
Or DP 1.4 1440p@360hz DSC
DP 1.4 =/= DP 2.0
That's really dumb
Tough luck I guess
yeah the reason for hdmi2.1 not working is that amd is not allowed to support it on linux
Being an early adopter sucks
FO27Q5P model will have DP 2.1
its not even out yet now
I think
do you notice any issue with the one using dsc?
like does it look any visually worse
Damn that's a nice panel
During this 1 single day - no.
But the difference is very subtle.
Without proper testing, same hardware, same software, would be hard to tell.
that sounds like to me that it doesnt matter
dp 2.1 works on linux
and your GPU supports it too
Basically, its always better to use:
DP2.1 > HDMI 2.1 > DP 1.4
except you cannot see a difference
so for you, there isnt a difference
but my computer looks different
yuv420 is very noticable the moment I pull up top with colors
it doesn't like orange
I havent played with it at all
i meant to say hdmi2.1, i edited my message
I have a bricked pc with no microphone
i cannot play yet lol
im looking at static screen
99% of time
in that 3 mins of counter strike i didnt notice yet...
okay well now im confused why youve been on about your microphone and refresh rate if the computer itself doesnt work

its not yet brick
i just dont have rights anymore π
btw dont do that
thats how i lost my rights π
i deleted the space instead of # and saved that file.
editing /etc/passwd is a pretty good way to cause issues
if your drive isnt encrypted, you could probably use an install environment with a text editor to fix that file again
yeah
im smart, thankfully, and didnt encrypt
i kinda expected somehting to get fkd
it was just human error, i know u cant do that.
as I said, I meant to delete the #, not the space.
will bazzite flash drive work?
i think if i log out, i wont be able to get in again xD
does it matter?
you cant do shit where you are now
btw
that chsh
how do u install it. with ujust, brew or flatpak? or other way?
chsh?
I wanted to get zsh working.
but i didnt have chsh not idea, what it is and with what to install it with π
so i decided to edit manually
thats how i got there.
because I didnt want to fuck it up haha
