I am trying to select 360hz in refresh rate, and I am met with a black screen and my secondary screen starts tearing and blinking. I've had the monitor working on other distros (as well as windows11 2 hours ago)
Does anyone know if there is a fix for this, or have some ideas for me to attempt?

k im checking
install the flatpak "Resources"
to see which gpu is actually doing work rn
i think it's the AMD
if u want the nvidia one fulltime, u should have a small Prime applet in the system tray that lets u set that
summer gust
to see which gpu is actually doing work rn
test with a high framerate youtube vid or a website made to do online realtime workhard tests for gpu
n keep an eye on Resources app as u do
grim willow
Will do
summer gust
u should be able to put the nvidia one to higher refresh. maybe not as high as u quoted, but idk
grim willow
Just as a FYI I can not select 360hz at all currently, but let me come back to you, I can put the Dell monitor to 240hz currently

do inxi -M what's the UEFI/BIOS date?
grim willow
23/07/24
grim willow
And recommended is 6.11?
grim willow
Let me test that
summer gust
can always roll back cuz it doesnt delete the current one on its own
grim willow
eh I guess 6.11 is stable enough 😛
summer gust
after reboot, rerun that same first command. u should be able to see modes listed
and some dp ports shown as 'active'
grim willow
sure
grim willow
No worries, so it still says N/A
hot scaffold
I had some problems with multi monitor with different refresh rates, the problem was the DPI cable
grim willow
I got displayport, and it has not been an issue on arch linux
summer gust
any news with this, @grim willow ?
grim willow
Yeah did not really work regardless, so went with Arch, since that for some reason has it working
