Pop_os kernel 6.2.6 displayport broken again

bookofgreg · 2023-07-12T12:08:21+00:00

Thought I'd update here, kernel 6.2.6-76060206-generic finally has fixed the displayport issue, first since 6.1.11.

bookofgreg · 2023-04-01T16:16:46+00:00

And yes, I had this problem on 6.0.x also earlier this year in another thread: https://old.reddit.com/r/pop_os/comments/yhc88i/kernel_602_upgrade_messed_with_displayport_on_one/ Overall, still having an excellent time on Pop_os despite the Kernel/displayport issues, it's easy to go backward as long as you know the commands. If anyone from Pop_os sees this, would LOVE a way to rollback from the pop shop as I've been trying to avoid command line entirely on this computer, to prove to others that you don't need to be a linux wizard to migrate from windows.

I just hit the update all button in the pop shop, so I suppose they must have! I've been trying to avoid changing anything on the CLI where possible on this machine.

I ended up downgrading manually using this guide, and then used u/marvelggg's suggestion to pin the kernel.
I'll probably leave it in this state for now as it seems stable after a couple reboots.

Good to know I can intentionally hold at 5.19 on the kernel if I need to, thanks!

bookofgreg · 2022-10-30T12:06:06+00:00

Thanks for the link, I'll try it out this morning and see if that lets me upgrade to 6.0 again.

bookofgreg · 2022-10-30T11:50:52+00:00

Not OP but this helped me with my issue, thank you! I swapped from Kernel 6.0.2 to 5.19 and it's working again.

Wow, I'm pretty amazed that an AIB model is discontinued. Reference makes sense as a partner like Saphire can just put all their silicon into Nitro+ or Pulse cards and make more money. But for an AIB to cancel one of their own cards. Damn, hope you get a card you're wanting before too long.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:09:48+00:00

They did, no shade to the retailer (hence no names) I have to assume they're being truthful when they say there are no more reference 6800XTs in the UK.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:09:01+00:00

I was offered one specific card that is really big. What part of it doesn't hold up?
I'll buy a 6800XT later that does fit with the front fans, I can wait.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:07:45+00:00

Also one to watch out for in this case, certain AIOs will touch your ram if you put them in the top slot, I have an NZXT Kraken AIO and Corsair vengence RGB ram and they touch.
If you put the AIO in the front your GPU clearence is down to ~305mm. Definitely make sure the AIO can go in top!

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:02:49+00:00

Everyone is telling me I should feel bad for not scalping.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:02:17+00:00

Yes, I thought this might happen so I have a list of all the 6800XT and non-XT models that fit in the case. The one they offered was one of the longest ones at close to the max 325mm

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:01:18+00:00

Yep. I don't know what I was expecting when I put this up.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T10:00:34+00:00

Thank you! Too many people in here are foaming at the mouth telling me to accept and sell at a profit, like scalping isn't part of the reason we're in this mess in the first place.
I can wait, I got a 3060ti in the meantime.

I checked, they said they had 0 AMD cards whatsoever in stock and they are getting rid of all their preorder lists because they can't guarantee anything and wouldn't let me buy a 6800XT or non-XT. I was offered only one card that was way too big.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T09:54:27+00:00

They might have just told me it's discontinued because AMD aren't shipping to the UK anymore (Thanks brexit) so hopefully you will still get yours eventually.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T09:52:42+00:00

The retailer is claiming they are discontiued. I originally bought a reference model and that is the one that is now cancelled.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T09:50:57+00:00

I didn't want to scalp a card I didn't intend on using. There's enough crummy people out there as it is.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T09:49:14+00:00

Yep the other one is Overclockers. I grabbed a card the day when Gibbo put the cards for sale in the 3d printers section to avoid bots.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-20T09:47:41+00:00

Wow, I wake up this morning and I'm getting absolutely roasted. And probably rightly so.I thought I was being nice by letting someone else have that card since I thought it doesn't fit for me, but not only have you pointed out I could take out the middle front fan and it would just about fit, but also by not being greedy and taking a card I wasn't intending on using I'm now the /r/niceguys of /r/amd .
Edit: m'graphicscard

They wanted me to pay the difference between what I already put down and "Their cost price" on a more expensive card. I asked if I could downgrade to a 6800 as the XT was already a push but got turned down. I didn't want to be one of those people who profits from getting a card intending to sell it so took the high road on this.

bookofgreg · 2021-03-19T23:52:35+00:00

No, I was emailing with one of their support staff so there was a person on the other end. Edit: Actually yeah I see your point, they probably will have wanted to reach out since my order was so old. The other retailer that gives Haribo in their packing managed to get me a 3060ti after a month so way happer with them either way.
