Subject: [PATCH] Disable panel self-refresh on AMD GPUs
Date: Wed, 20 May 2026 21:29:03 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260520-disable-panel-self-refresh-v1-1-dbc6ff6617c8@gmail.com> (raw)
KDE Linux has already done this. It works around a long-running bug in
the AMD GPU driver, which I believe also affects my test laptop.
Without the workaround, the system freezes and does not recover until a
hard reboot.
