Guys I tried to install graphene following the procedure that MPC has posted but nothing changes in Fedora 35, always sucks the same way it does. Is it necessary to do some other passage that I have not seen? Do you have to do some activation for this Graphene to work?

But then excuse me, using the wiki procedure that Raptor published last year, are you still unable to get the sources for the new version of Chromium today? I wanted to understand if by doing that procedure I can get the latest version or not ...

Hi Borley, the main problem was that I couldn't figure out how to get the updated firmware installed, then I figured it out and I succeeded and at that point the GPU started normal. I was missing some repositories that once entered, they updated and automatically made me update the firmware.

Guys sorry, I understand what you are saying but the fact remains that to date, Chromium is the only browser that works without problems on Power there is little to do. Firefox still lacks the strength of Chromium and whether we want it or not, that's the way it is. In my opinion we must have Chromium on Power and it also seems strange to me that you Raptor tell me about Firefox when you were the first to support Chromium on Power ... What should you do to get the new sources after version 87? If there is a pod, let's use it and continue to carry on what is currently the only complete and totally usable browser on Power ... In my opinion at the moment there is nothing else we can do ... new sources ...

But have any of you installed this graphene on Fedora 34 or 35 and noticed the actual improvement?

TLE, it will also be true that they do not have Power machines to detect any bugs but I do not think that Canonical of Ubuntu has more machines to test the desktop versions considering also that Ubuntu on Power does not have workstation versions while Fedora for some years has ... Yet Ubuntu from the software optimization side I saw that it is the best in direct comparison with Fedora and Debian ... Gnome 40 on Ubuntu is fine, runs well without problems!

Sorry, you mean I have to make this line become: ~] # grubby --set-default /boot/vmlinuz-5.15.fc35.ppc64le? Would this be the change to be made to get it started with the AMD GPU?

Shark sorry, it means that I have to go to that path file you wrote me to eventually change the value and bring it to 0 as Classic says, I understand correctly?

Ok Classic, I just have to understand the exact procedure to do it too.  I remember well that when we first made these Navi work, for example, we changed a line in the petit Boot.  After loading, go to the command line and type this command: # nvram -p ibm, skiboot --update-config fast-reset = 0 # nvram -p ibm, skiboot --print-config "ibm, skiboot" Partition     
Now this has always been set on my motherboard, what else needs to be done, how exactly do you proceed from Petit Boot and which command should you enter? Thanks

Hi Sharkcz, so you too have noticed that changes have been made starting from version 5.14 onwards, which have affected the functioning of AMD GPUs. Is it possible to hope for a correction in good times of this problem in the Linux Kernel by the Kernel team? I had written about the problem, already at the beginning of version 5.14 and therefore I tried to make everyone aware of this problem but at the time, unfortunately few followed me ...

I mainly use Ubuntu 20.04.3 with Xorg and the problem is the same, so I don't think it affects the graphics server.  They changed some damn parameters on the new Kernels and now we have problems and what's worse they still haven't solved it ...!  Classic sorry for Kernel options you mean when configuring the parameters?  Is there this option that you say must be set to 0?  Let me get it right ...

Yes Classic I know that I have the Navi, only that I say this because I have noticed that every time there is a problem in the Kernel, concerning the AMD GPUs, this occurs indiscriminately on different types of cards, such as Navi, Nano and others ... I therefore believe that the problem is the same also because coincidentally we have the same problems at the same time ... Maybe you have not read this link sent by the friend MPC, here we are talking about Vega, so another model but problem itself. Here they say they have solved but I did not understand anything about how they did unfortunately. If you can better understand what they did then it's great ... I'll post the link ...

Hi Classic, the problem I know for sure occurs with Kernels from version 5.14 onwards, including the new 5.15 which I just tested a few days ago and which still suffers from the same bug.  Can you tell me where to go or how to proceed to verify this part you are talking about?  Thanks

Hi, unfortunately it is the same problem that I have pointed out since the Linux Kernel moved to version 5.14.X.  From this Kernel version onwards, at the moment, AMD GPUs no longer boot and you need a Kernel up to 5.13.19 to make it work.  They showed me a post where they understood the problem but I don't know how to do that procedure they talk about to avoid this ...

Just updated to 35 as well and I confirm that it sucks exactly like the previous version.  I don't understand why after all this time and the reports made, they still haven't implemented this patch themselves ... It's really grotesque I would say, how this gnome works on Fedora!  Is there a wizard that you know of?  I don't know how to implement it manually unfortunately ...
