Description Mészáros Csaba 2024-04-08 19:30:27 CEST

I think it's with the amdgpu driver. Because the energy management function does not work.
I already wrote about this on the forum, but I didn't really get a meaningful answer.

I also noticed - or my eyes are just dazzled - that the redshift or the built-in red-eye effect seems to turn on and off.
Disturbing.

They write about this in more detail here.

Comment 1 Lewis Smith 2024-04-10 21:52:44 CEST

Thank you for the report.
I take it that the basic issue is "the energy management function does not work". The AMD forum page (Jan 2023) offers little hope. I doubt that we can do anything about this if AMD do not move.
Assigning anyway to kernel/drivers in case they have an idea.

Comment 2 Morgan Leijström 2024-04-10 22:41:06 CEST

At least there is some activity in the bug linked from that AMD Community post:
https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/662

So it is known upstream problem (Probably a combo driver, kernel, desktop, ...)  and we can probably not to anything more than note it in Errata.
