I see. You can temporarily edit your grub before the OS loads. This should afford you the opportunity to boot into the system without EDID modifications, though im not sure if your modified EDID will still load under this scenario. If so, you may need to switch into a CLI session to undo your changes.

I’m sorry to hear that. Does this system only have access to this single display? Did you use a kernel command to modify your EDID? If so, are you able to temporarily modify your grub before booting into the OS?

Archwiki references a [@<refresh>] (presumably denoted as [@144] for something like 144Hz) property, hopefully that’s all you should need to define, though I’m not sure if you’ll need to manually recalculate vertical and horz timings or something.

Maybe this can help fill in any gaps

You want to look into modifying your display EDID.

I don’t believe there’s a GUI for this on Linux but this post referencing the Archwiki might come in handy

they’re trying to ensure an acceptable UX with their browser.

I suppose the root of the issue is developers specifically targeting and testing on chrome.

I don’t understand how this would make Firefox look bad unless you’re pointing at the dire browser share situation.

it do be that way :(

Their latest microcode update from 7 days ago was declared as final. Time will tell about the efficacy of the most recent fixes.

Unfortunately it may only be available via board partners as beta BIOS updates at present.

Isn’t this the kernel driver included by default?

I see, appreciate the info. I’ll have a poke around on fedora later today

Oh right. Do you have a distro specific example of this?

You shouldn’t need to install anything for the amd gpu

Out of curiosity, how does dwl compare to dwm today?

I think you’d be incorrect but I’m glad to see focus on other ISAs nonetheless.

I’m not sure the power efficiency argument in favour of RISC really holds up today; Lunar lake has demonstrated that x86 can achieve stellar perf / watt at lower power envelopes. It doesn’t quite meet apple (testimony to their own proficiency though they benefit from vertical integration) but comfortably pulls ahead of Qualcomm in this regard.

But being able to use your desktop software on any target, regardless of ISA or OS? Sign me the fuck up.

Would it almost be equivalent to snap on Android?

I’ve heard very little about it. Is there some controversy around it?

I’ve been lucky enough to dumb guy my fedora install since 28, and it’s been pretty decent to me. Granted I’m not using nvidia graphics, and I feel like that could throw a big spanner in the works for regular users. It’s a big enough leap getting into the mindset of installing software from Distro repos rather than directly from the vendor.

I hope the newer nv open kernel modules don’t stay out of tree. Also hope that NVK will give users the ability to just plug and play with mesa drivers in the future.

Yikes I wasn’t aware of the second part

I was about to ask, isn’t this guy a prolific dickhead?

the reset situation may improve in the not too distant future: https://www.phoronix.com/news/AMDGPU-Per-Ring-Resets
