I know the drivers come in the distro package manager, but, is there a set straight from AMD? Trying to use Brave causes freezes and black screen flashes, which I’m pretty sure is a driver thing.

    Hm. It doesn’t want to accept amdgpu.sg_display=0. It looks right from here, but…

    $ sudo update-grub
    /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 42: /etc/default/grub: amdgpu.sg_display=0: not found

      Grub doesn’t actually validate the parameters themselves, but the whole config, so you’ve pasted it into the wrong spot. It should go in the string that follows GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT.

      If it still happens, could you post your grub config?

      Also some people have had success setting the GPU to game mode in the BIOS too.

        Ah, I had put it at the bottom of the file. I’ve put it in the right place now; thank you! I’ll try game mode if this doesn’t fix it.

        Trying to open Tabletop Simulator is now doing the same thing. Is there any way to increase the amount of RAM given to the apu (without getting the dpgu)?

        I’ve never had an issue like this on previous laptops, so I’m not sure what to do (other than be frustrated / avoid certain programs).

            I’m on 3.02, still need to upgrade to 3.03. Will see if that resolves; if not, I’ll try the USB tool to see if I can increase the VRAM. Thank you so much!

            Upgrading to 3.03 didn’t help. I’ve downloaded new amdgpu firmware as covered here; not sure if it’s resolved the issue yet, since I just did it recently, but I’ll report back once it’s been a bit.

        Well, trying to pull up the GIF menu in the Discord app causes this consistently.
