Hello,

I've been using Alex's linux amd-staging-4.11 tree for a bit, but a certain commit makes it unusable for me:

commit 70b696cc1961fca375f4eeb649df90d17016fc52 drm/amdgpu: Add module param to control SI support

With this commit, the display stops getting updated during boot, and based on dmesg sddm crashes. The system is still responsive and seems to work fine apart from the display when I tried using it from SSH.

I've attached the dmesg.

I am using a 280X so SI.

I'm on Arch Linux 64b, up to date.

Maybe my configuration needs to change after this commit, I'm happy to try anything.

Thanks!
