Yes. Only because of Chromium. Not such a big deal.

I noticed yesterday that Vikings now offers Blackbirds, too

Sadly, CPU options disappeared from the store.

You also could give me your ticket number. I could post it on Twitter.

GPU Compute / Accelerators / Re: Necessary firmware for Navi14

This will give the same result. But try it. If you set the jumper you will get a black screen at the beginning and the keyboard will not work, IIRC until the OS is loaded.

AST is connected via HDMI?
AMD via DP?

If yes, boot to petitboot.
Switch to DP.
Press enter

Wait. When you're blacklisting the AST GPU you have to switch to the AMD GPU as well.
Means, after you are hitting enter in Petitboot, you have to switch to the port where the AMD GPU is connected, immediately.

Otherwise, the OS don't recognize the AMD GPU.

If you still stay on the AST port after blacklisting this GPU, you will get exactly this picture. It is logical that the Display Manager cannot start then.

Weird. Some time ago I tried Leap 15.1 with no issue.

@MPC7500 If you blacklist the AST can you interact with Petitboot?

Yes. Blacklisting AST is post-Petitboot.

Jumper or blacklist. Blacklistng has some advantages.

You only have to flash the firmware when you want the GPU also in Petitboot.
You could instead use the AST til Petitboot and then switch to the AMD GPU (and blacklist the AST).

If this fixes the problem, then this is worth an entry on the wiki.
