OK I have now regression tested on the latest 19.10, with the above ^^software stack. All except incrementing the kernel from 5.8.11 to 5.8.13. I can now confirm that the old bug has also re-appeared on 19.10 too. So it is not only exclusive to 20.04. To myself, I really don know what to try.

It would be nice to understand what is going on here. Currently on 19.10 and have not upgraded to 20.04 yet... because of this very same bug! It took so long to get rid of the last time around. Many months. Should also do a regression test here back on 19.10 too? It seems I can install both the

Did you see it work on previous ubuntu version (19.10)? Or is 20.04 the first version you tested here? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1820832 Title:

Hello there. Good news for a change: Re-tested this bug today on latest linux 5.3.1 kernel and nvidia 435.21 binary (closed) drivers. And it seems like there might be some improvement now. What I noticed this time: * Enabled 120hz overclock on my high refresh 120hz monitor, and rebooted this

well by that logic, then somebody with an amd ryzen APU (such as 3200G or whichever with the integrated Vega graphics). Would also not be affected by this bug. But the other reason would be that intel's linux igp drivers are not affected. That is a different reason as to whether the gpu is being

Hi there. Sorry but I'm a bit confused as to which branches will be getting this fix and which ones will not be. Specifically I as wondering if a fix might be back-ported to 18.04. Because I need to stay on LTS release for the canonical kernel live patching service. Otherwise I really would not
