ok thanks I'll try to do what you tell me ... I hope to find the problem ... the only thing I still don't understand is why there is an error if I simply made the copy paste from the guide ... not I understand...

I honestly don't know this FPGA hardware but if it's based on Intel then those who say it don't understand anything about hardware, that's for sure ... I wish I could use Amiga os 4 on Power but unfortunately from what I understand I can't unfortunately. ..😣

from what I read in the guide serves to configure the kernel ... but I don't know specifically ... I only say that having followed the guide step by step I wonder why it gives me such an error ... The only thing that comes to me from to think is that the steps to create the customized Kernel are missing, but I don't know how to do anything else, I don't know what to think ... I have no idea ...

Guys I rectify my last message, I'm checking the command line that MPC said was different, actually it was copied exactly, only on the forum did it come up with spaces. Such as. you can see the sequence is correct and when I do the cp command, it returns this error to me ... Merklot you have to intervene and let me kindly understand what is happening because I have copied everything as it is done on the guide, it worked everything up to here, now it is strange that from this error ...

be very careful because the first time it happened to me to update Ubuntu from 19.04 to 19.10. Having installed the Gnome by default, when the system updates, automatically downloads and installs the Gnome 3.34 and if they have not yet corrected the problem, as soon as you restart with the updated system, once you get to the login screen you will be irreversibly blocked and you will not be able to do anything else that re-install everything ... The problem as I said earlier is with Gnome, not Fedora or Ubuntu. He does it in all the distros that have the possibility to install the Gnome 3.34 ... Siteadmin, excuse me then, I was not aware of this thing from you in America. With us if you reproduce original material then there are no problems and you can talk about it freely ... I didn't know

MPC I checked the command line you posted, if you notice the original of the guide, you will notice that it is exactly the one I posted, if I do copy and paste, obviously I don't go to think that there are more spaces otherwise I would go to intervene. Also while in the line that you had previously pointed out to me, it gave me error of excessive arguments, in this case it takes the command and makes you continue so I could not imagine ... In any case this evening I try in the mode you posted and then I go to redo the command that gives me the error of which I spoke yesterday, let's see if correcting the previous line, I can go on. But at this point it is necessary to report to Meclort because even when you do the NVRAM update in petit boot, the line which is then reported as a guide also has too much space and consequently the system returns an error. Too much space is found after 0 at the end of the line ...

# nvram -p ibm, skiboot --update-config fast-reset = 0

 this is the line with the extra space at the end that makes you get out of error, on this I realized and I corrected it, on the others I made a copy paste and I didn't realize it

it seems strange to me because I copied exactly without touching anything, the line that comes out in my previous message has different spaces but I don't remember that there were in the original that I copied ... very strange ... I'll check this evening and I see if it is actually how it comes out in my message but in any case it has not even returned errors like too many arguments in the line ... I honestly don't understand ...

So I'll give you a summary, after doing those steps where I was stuck, I went to the part where you must first download and then apply the kernel patches.

[user @ bb git] $ cd fedora /
[user @ bb fedora] $ wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/uploads/f8c299fc4fd373a8cbc380f348204b61/0001-amdgpu-Prepare-DCN-floating-point-macros-for-generic.patch
[user @ bb fedora] $ wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/uploads/7d194992837c8706ca5966b682d5680b/0002-amdgpu-Enable-initial-DCN-support-on-POWER.patch
[user @ bb fedora] $ wget https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/uploads/86353afdb43409add84005cef8c5abc0/0003-amdgpu-Wrap-FPU-dependent-functions-in-dc20.patch
[user @ bb fedora] $ git am * .patch

Up to this point no problem, he did everything according to the guide.
Then he tells me to do this command:
[user @ bb fedora] $ sed -i 's / .num_dsc = 5, // g' drivers / gpu / drm / amd / display / dc / dcn20 / dcn20_resource.c
Without this the system has not returned any error to me and so I went ahead in the procedure and I got to the point where it tells me to configure the kernel and to do it you must enter that famous command that I posted and that does not work ... And I got so stuck ... Last step is the command line that you see immediately above or the one where you talk about drivers and diplay ...

only at the moment I think there is no other solution because as I said in the previous posts there is a big bug in GNOME 3.34 and I don't even know if they know that there is this problem. Can you wait and solve the problem? How much time will pass? I think you should do as I did, xfce doesn't weigh and it's a good alternative in my opinion ... then you do ...

I admit not being practical on linux by now you all know it, but some things I still know I can distinguish ... no, I had even tried to write it directly to the command but nothing always knows the same error to me ...

MauryPower9 @ localhost fedora] $ cp /boot/config-*.ppc64le .config
cp: the target '.config' is not a directory
[MauryPower9 @ localhost fedora] $

In my opinion if you install xfce first and then from inside xfce give the commands to install gnome, the problem no longer exists. I didn't have any problems doing this and I'm still using Fedora 31 with GNOME. Same for Ubuntu, if you install gnome directly from the server version, just reload with gnome nothing works and crashes irreversibly if instead you install it from xfce then restarting it works great and gives you no more problems.

Guys then, I'll update you on the procedure, MPC you were right, obviously I was wrong to write some characters and didn't take the commands, I did the copy and I managed to make some commands operational. However unfortunately arrived at the command user @ bb fedora] $ cp /boot/config-*.ppc64le .config, the system returns me error telling me: cp: the objective '.config' is not a directory
I have always done the copy paste exactly as for all the commands up to here carried out and gone to good time ... How come now it gives me error and doesn't make me continue? Where the hell is the mistake this time?

ok then I'll do as you say, I copied the exact line but it is possible that I made some mistakes that I didn't see.  Thanks for your clarification MPC, I try and let you know
