Bug ID: 104248 Summary: Black screen after switching refresh rate from 144 Hz Product: DRI Version: XOrg git Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64) OS: Linux (All) Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: medium Component: DRM/AMDgpu Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org Reporter: thomas-lange2@gmx.de

My monitor supports 144 Hz as refresh rate which works fine. But switching from 144 Hz to a lower value (like 120 Hz) always results in a black screen with no signal.

The intention is to use 144 Hz for games and 120 Hz on the desktop. PowerPlay doesn't work with 144 Hz, so the GPU wastes energy and gets hotter than necessary.

Switching between other rates (like 120 -> 60 -> 100 -> 60 -> 120) works fine. It also worked correctly with previous cards (HD4830 and HD6850).

The workaround is to stay on 120 Hz all the time. When the screen shows no signal, resuming from standby brings it back.

Things I have tried so far: 1. Disabling DPM with "echo high > /sys/class/drm/card0/device/power_profile" -> Same results

2. Using Linux 4.15-RC3 with enabled DC (amdgpu.dc=1) -> Refresh rates higher than 60 Hz are not supported -> Is this known or should I file a separate bug report?
