Checks out. Born in the 80s and I’ve got that freck. It has to be a vaccination mark, right?

You’re probably using the open source driver.

I hear ya. I bought a AMD CPU+GPU laptop to run Linux on, but a month later I’m back to Windows.

While the default graphics driver worked most of the time, I had random graphic card crashes on a 20 year old Wine-ran game. Even the official amdgpu driver had issues (PITA to install as its not being maintained). No issues with newer games through Steam (Proton is amazeballs) fortunately. I also had random issues with a second monitor not being detected that were probably graphics driver related. Some random UI focus issues were likely a window manager issue (KDE).

Sleep/hibernate doesn’t work ‘out of the box’ and I couldn’t get it working reliably after screwing with grub. It was a gamble if it would actually power down or just go back to the lock screen. I don’t know why its so difficult for a basic thing that’s been around for decades.

So now I’m back on Windows, everything works as expected. Honestly I love Linux and its leaps and bounds better from what it was, but Windows is a still better choice for hardware support reasons. I’ll give it another try if AMD gets it together with their driver support.

Switched to Freetube/Invidious. Like the sun, I’m never looking directly at Youtube.com ever again.

I wish Frontier would focus on their own IP that’s languished for years (Elite) instead of churning out mid games using licensed IP. Just… make a game that’s amazing and focus your efforts on it.

Someone please buy the rights to City of Heroes and boot it back up.
