yeah, idk, this could just be a gpu issue, this card is very weird, from amd’s usb controller in it to audio routing with it, but i guess such is life hehe, ill check everything i can again e come back to here, thanks for the help so far anyway!
ohh i’ll read it too then thanks for the starting point on the reading!
There’s still a bit that could be tried, as far as different resolutions. Eg:
- 1600x1000 with reduced blanking (
cvt -r 1600 1000
) - or 1680x1050 without trying to reduce blanking (
cvt 1680 1050
)
You’d need to step through those 4 steps each time:
cvt
…xrandr --newmode
… (create a new display mode)xrandr --addmode
… (add that mode to a monitor)xrandr --output
… (set that mode)
hmm interesting, the thing is that I don’t think i explained it correctly, its not with image and than it goes black, it’s black, flashes the image and goes back to black, idk if it changes anything with this description. But I will try other resolutions, if nothing works I’ll just use the bad 1080 compressed res
I’m not sure either to be honest. If I had a screen doing this to me though, first thing I’d do is replace the cable. You had mentioned it worked under Windows though, which is why I didn’t press for that earlier. Cables can fail though.
hmmm idk as well, the cable actually works in 1080p, and i tested another cabble and the problem is still there so…
Other baselevel things you can try, are booting with the LTS kernel to see if the issue persists. Sometimes regressions are introduced into the standard kernel.
okok, I’ll try that tomorrow and get back to you, thanks for the help!
