<SOLVED> External HDMI display crash after little to no use

Post by avgguy25 »

Hello,

I was hesitant to ask for help on here since I'm not very tech savvy, but I've tried everything I could find and can't fix the problem. I connect externally to an HDMI display, a TV, and the display crashes, sometimes immediately. The longest I've had it going is about an hour from my troubleshooting, which I'll try and describe. After reading several posts on here, I thought the 5.11 kernel would work best for this issue. That version, up to 5.11-27, works all right on just laptop display, but any version after that gives me strange errors, and usually won't even recognize there's an external display plugged in. The 27 version recognized it and functions for a very small period of time (about 2 minutes), and then everything crashes, usually to the point that I have to manually restart the laptop. I've tried using kernel 5.13 (as recommended in this post viewtopic.php?f=59&t=363655), but that gave the same erros as the 5.11-46 kernel. I tried copying the linux firmware to the lib folder (recommended in that same post), but no success. I tried kernel 5.14, again recommend from the aforementioned post, and it had a better longevity w/ the HDMI connection than 5.11 did, but still crashed. Moreover, it apparently unmounted my my grub bootloader file (more on that in a sec). I tried installing kernel 5.15, having read that it included some useful items for AMD (https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page= ... x-5.15-AMD), but that didn't work. Then I read, very recently, that kernel 5.16 had some support for HP Omen laptops (https://ubuntuhandbook.org/index.php/20 ... 16-ubuntu/), as well as Ryzen 6000 Mobile getting more support (https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page= ... 6-Released). So I installed the 5.16 kernel. Well, it really seemed to work. The HDMI connection did not crash for so long, I really don't think it would've. Bad news, nothing else on LM 20.2 worked. Nothing could be installed, read, etc. I don't think anything 'attached' to that kernel, so nothing was in sync with it (I'm not tech savy, that's just how I describe it). As 5.16 worked w/ the HDMI so well, I thought I'd try the xanmod edge kernel of 5.16, hoping that would have better compatibility. It did, and the HDMI connection lasted longer than anything I had previously tried, with the exception of the 'raw' 5.16 kernel. It too eventually crashed between 1-2 hours of use.

I tried instead to look at command line outputs to see if I was missing something. I noted, exactly like this post (viewtopic.php?f=59&t=363655&start=20) that my graphics device output was exactly the same using inxi -Fxxxz (Device-1: AMD), as opposed to the probably correct output of AMD Navi 23 [Radeon RX 6600/6600 XT/6600M, as mentioned in that post. As I had tried copying the firmware already, with no change, I tried forcing the HDMI output to be recognized, as noted here (viewtopic.php?t=315294). That increased the longevity on the 5.11 kernel, but again, crashed after a short period. The only other thing I can think to try is this recommendation (viewtopic.php?f=49&t=365005), setting amdgpu.dc=0, which apparently is something i do by messing w/ the kerel, which i'm hesitant to do (not tech savy). I'm out of ideas, but I would really like to keep LM 20.02 on this laptop. If anyone could provide some ideas, or point me in the right direction, I'd really appreciate it.

Here is the output from inxi -Fxxxrz:

Apologies for the lengthiness, just wanted to emphasize asking for help wasn't my go to. The problem, in a nutshell, is i'm applying all kinds of attempted fixes, but I have no idea what is actually causing the problem. Kind of feels like this could go on forever doing it that way.

Welcome to the forum, avgguy25.

That post did not indicate the output was incorrect. That post indicates that different manufacturers have self-identified their hardware differently. Hardware differences can produce performance differences.

I noticed your output indicates there are two AMD GPUs. Therein lies the crux of this issue as I presume one is onboard and the other is dedicated.

Code: Select all

Graphics:
  Device-1: AMD vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: amdgpu v: kernel 
  bus ID: 03:00.0 chip ID: 1002:73ff 
  Device-2: AMD vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: amdgpu v: kernel 
  bus ID: 09:00.0 chip ID: 1002:1638 
  Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.13 driver: amdgpu,ati 
  unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,radeon,vesa resolution: 1920x1080~144Hz

  v: 4.6 Mesa 21.0.3 direct render: Yes
The technology for AMD/AMD graphics is still not really completely mature on Windows operating systems, so the ability to run it well on Linux-based distros will not necessarily be smooth going.

Often on laptops, external ports, such as HDMI ports, are powered by the dedicated GPU while the laptop screen is powered by the onboard GPU. If your system is designed with AMD's SmartShift technology then it is likely you will need to add kernel parameter to fix this situation. My guess is the switching of power between the two GPUs is what is causing the crash on the HDMI screen. This post has links explaining SmartShift technology and is the last time I researched this type of issue.

I do not know if what worked for that person will give you stability. That person had a Dell G5 SE 5505. I do not know your computer's specific model. That person ended up using both amdgpu.runpm=0 and acpi=strict. Using kernel paramter amdgpu.runpm=0 means the second GPU is not turned off when unused so it results in shorter battery life, but using that parameter might keep the HDMI port alive so it does not crash. I do not know if you might need the other kernel parameter the other person used. I also do not know if amdgpu.dc=0 would help.

That topic was from a year ago and the kernels have changed since then so I do not know how much is different from a kernel standpoint to know what kernel parameters might be best in your situation.

You can use the following information How to add a kernel parameter to temporarily or permanently add a parameter. When you add it temporarily, it adds it only for that current boot cycle, so if, for any reason, it seems to cause issues, all you need to do is reboot to clear it. It is possible to add multiple kernel parameters, but try them one at at time first to see if it helps.

Generally speaking, I would suggest using the newest kernel which will work (5.14-oem), but this is going to be a "test and see what works" kind of situation so I leave it up to you as to what you want to try.

Cross-checking what came up the logs versus what I could find related to the error messages is how we ended up with a solution in the other topic. Things may have changed in the year since that investigation, so feel free to ask questions.

Re: External HDMI display crash after little to no use

Post by avgguy25 »

So I read the thread you linked from beginning to end, and I think I'm having the issue you had mentioned there, the amdgpu is running both the onboard graphics, and the 6600M. Here is the output from the command you showed there, inxi -Gxxx, run in terminal with the HDMI screen connected:

Code: Select all

Graphics:
  Device-1: AMD vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: amdgpu v: kernel 
  bus ID: 03:00.0 chip ID: 1002:73ff 
  Device-2: AMD vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: amdgpu v: kernel 
  bus ID: 09:00.0 chip ID: 1002:1638 
  Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.13 driver: amdgpu,ati 
  unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,radeon,vesa

  OpenGL: renderer: AMD RENOIR (DRM 3.42.0 5.14.0-1018-oem LLVM 12.0.0) 
  v: 4.6 Mesa 21.0.3 direct render: Yes
and here it is with just the laptop display:

Code: Select all

Graphics:
  Device-1: AMD vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: amdgpu v: kernel 
  bus ID: 03:00.0 chip ID: 1002:73ff 
  Device-2: AMD vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: amdgpu v: kernel 
  bus ID: 09:00.0 chip ID: 1002:1638 
  Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.13 driver: amdgpu,ati 
  unloaded: fbdev,modesetting,radeon,vesa resolution: 1920x1080~144Hz

  v: 4.6 Mesa 21.0.3 direct render: Yes
This is all running on the 5.14 kernel, installing the OEM through command line just like you showed in the other post. Does that basically mean that whatever software or firmware that should be running the 6600M isn't either present or functioning with the external HDMI screen connected?

I forgot to mention, i tried the acpi=strict and amdgpu.runpm=0 each individually using the temporary kernel parameter method. amdgpu.runpm=0 didn't appear to have any effect, the screen crashed as usual. The acpi=strict one though seemd to prolong the screen's functionality, but it too crashed after a bit. amdgpu.dc=0 crashed the laptop screen at boot, just lines going through the whole screen, and nothing appeared on the HDMI screen. The acpi=strict screen also gives an error on boot, prior to the LM logo appearing, repeated 8 times. It goes quick, so I wasn't exactly able to see what it was.

Your computer has two different GPUs. They are both made by AMD. AMD creates the graphics driver for their GPUs. Each GPU has its own version of amdgpu installed. They have to have their own version installed because the architecture of the GPUs is not the same. So it is not like one driver is trying to drive two different GPUs. They each have their own version which is driving their individual GPU.

The amdgpu driver does have some "switches" in it with regards to telling parts of the hardware what to do. The kernel parameters do some overrides on the switch positions the kernel gave to the amdgpu driver. When the kernel loads, it has to work with many different types of hardware and sometimes it is not fine-tuned for a specific set of hardware components so "fine-tuning' is done with kernel parameters.

However, if your computer has the SmartShift technology, the hardware (including the BIOS/UEFI) is designed to balance the load between the CPU and the GPUs. That is what the SmartShift technology is supposed to do. To the best of my knowledge, that is done at the hardware level; the operating system (at least from a Linux-based distro aspect) is not involved.

When you ran this, you were seeing an image on both screens, correct?

This output indicates the onboard GPU is the primary renderer (AMD RENOIR). The inxi output will only list one renderer, but it is possible both Renoir and the 6600M have their renderers loaded. We would have to check the Xorg log to verify that.

If you would like me to check it, please use this command in a terminal to upload the X Server log file to termbin:
cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999
It will return with a url address that you can post in your next reply.

Both devices have their amdgpu driver loaded, so both have what they need from the software standpoint. Others using the 6600XT's have not needed additional firmware added because the firmware either in the kernel or provided in the linux-firmware package have provided it.

If both renderers are loaded, there is a way to force the 6600 to be the primary renderer through a terminal command. You could see if that alone works or if that with some kernel parameters works.

Re: External HDMI display crash after little to no use

Post by avgguy25 »

You are correct, this is a smartshift laptop. I thought, if the same driver was running both, and the 'proportioning' that smartshift does, that could possibly explain the crashes, but after you explained the drivers, I'm thinking not so much. You are also correct, the inxi -Gxxx output you showed there displayed on both screens. With a light load, i.e. one tab on one browser open, and literally nothing else, the connection seems relatively stable. Something 'pumps it up' to make it crash. I was running watch -n 2 sensors when the display crashed to see if heat was the issue, but if i was reading the output correct at the time of the crash, neither graphics slot was above 41C, and the CPU never went above 61C. I've also read though that lm sensors doesn't read amd hardware correctly until something was added in kernel 5.15, so take that diagnosis with a grain of salt.

I wasn't sure if you wanted the command you listed run while connected via HDMI, or not, so I did both. Here's the link provided from cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | nc termbin.com 9999 while connected via HDMI:

Code: Select all

https://termbin.com/ok6x
and here it is not connected:

Code: Select all

https://termbin.com/7dfs
In searching, I found a couple other commands related to making one or the other graphics the primary renderer, but I'm not sure yet how applicable they are. First:

Code: Select all

DRI_PRIME=1 glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: AMD DIMGREY_CAVEFISH (DRM 3.42.0, 5.14.0-1018-oem, LLVM 12.0.0)
second:

Code: Select all

glxinfo | grep "OpenGL renderer"
OpenGL renderer string: AMD RENOIR (DRM 3.42.0, 5.14.0-1018-oem, LLVM 12.0.0)
and third:

Code: Select all

lspci | grep VGA
09:00.0 VGA compatible controller: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Device 1638 (rev c5)
i stumbled on this while looking up exactly what you mentioned here, making the 6600 the primary. One article mentioned that unless the grep VGA command had two outputs, there wasn't a way to switch the graphics. Another article, for the DRI PRIME and glxinfo commnands mentioned switching the dedicated graphics renderer to be the prime renderer, but only by program, so there's the extent of my knowledge on that.

It is good that you did because I noticed something interesting. I'll start by answering your other questions first and then let you know what I found in the Xorg logs.

Even before I checked the logs, this info let me know both renderers were loaded.

To switch to using the discrete GPU as the primary renderer, one uses the DRI_PRIME=1 command in a terminal. That only makes it the primary renderer until the system is rebooted. It can be done per program by specifying the program after the command (like you did when you checked for glxinfo). You would use it just by itself to switch everything to render with it, but I'm thinking that is not the issue in this situation.

Please keep in mind that you have an unusual dual-graphics laptop in that both are from the same vendor. That is still very new in the Linux-distro world. All dual-graphics laptops in the past had GPUs from two different vendors.

Additionally, bus ID: 09:00.0 chip ID: 1002:1638 is the onboard graphics and the laptop screen can only run from it based on what I see in the Xorg log. I'm curious as to whether you ran that last command while the external screen was attached?
Here is some interesting information from the Xorg logs.

Both GPUs are added and probed. Each GPU is a "card" and you can see the bus ID for each GPU after PCI.

The discrete GPU seems to designed to run the second DP port and the HDMI port. I did not see where the output was listed as connected for the HDMI port which may be a clue to the issue at hand. Note that DP ports are internal listings and may not reflect exactly what you can see externally. However, if you have two Thunderbolt or other such ports, then they could correlate to specific external physical ports.

I do not see that information for your external monitor. If there is some type of glitch (in the cable, monitor, or port) and the EDID info is not being passed to the system, that may explain why the monitor is "crashing".

Please attach the external monitor and then run xrandr --verbose and enclose the results in code tags. We are wanting to see if there is EDID info listed for the HMDI connection and whether the HDMI is showing as connected.

Re: External HDMI display crash after little to no use

Post by avgguy25 »

So there was a lot of output with that command. After reading your last post, the display port hadn't even occured to me. I know the usb-c port used the onboard graphics exclusively, I didn't know the DP used the 6600 graphics. I recall reading somewhere, but I don't recall where sadly, that HDMI has a hard time reading the EDID, and that DP or usb-c has a better chance at it, so I ran all three, in the hopes of something being able to identify it. Here's the xrandr --verbose output while connected via HDMI:

Code: Select all

Of note, that was the first time I have ever connected it to the DP (I don't know why, it had just never occurred to me before), and running the xrandr --verbose command was all I was able to do before it crashed (fastest external display crash I've had yet).

Re: External HDMI display crash after little to no use

That's the first time I've heard that. The EDID for the external monitor showed up in all three outputs. And is showed twice in the last output. :shock:

Do you have the two screens set in mirror mode? The current screen setting is showing 1920 x 1080 even though both the laptop and the external screen are showing as connected.

I left in the following info from the listing so you can get a better understanding of what information it provides.
  • The EDID for both the eDP (laptop screen) and the HDMI (external monitor) are both listed.
  • The * current and + actual resolutions (both are the same in the case of these two screens) are showing.
  • DisplayPort-1-0 and HDMI-A-1-0 have a PRIME Synchronization: option which means they are connected to the 6600.

This next set of data is pretty much the same except the external monitor is now showing as connected to the DP port (through an HDMI subconnector to the monitor) instead of the HDMI port. I have no guesses as to why this connection would be more of an issue (you indicated it crashed almost immediately), but the amdgpu driver code is not exactly the same for DP connections as it is for HDMI connections. There might be something in the "translation" through the cable which is a factor.

The last data set had EDID info for the external monitor both for the USB-C port and the DP port and shows both as connected. I suspect this may be related to the wiring inside the laptop? It also lists resolutions for the HDMI port (I only showed one) even though nothing is listed as connected and there is no resolution indicated as * or +. I have seen that before in other xrandr outputs, but I'm not sure what it signifies.

I presume when the external monitor screen crashes you still have the laptop screen working. The next time you see a "crash", run the following in a terminal dmesg -T | tail -n 200 which gives the last 200 lines sent to the dmesg log. Perhaps that will give us clues as to what is happening.

I do not know if running DRI_PRIME=1 in a terminal will help keep the monitor stable longer, but it is something you can try. It only lasts for the current boot cycle (so rebooting will clear it). After you run that, if you then run inxi -Gx I would expect you will see the renderer has changed because that should switch which renderer is primary.

Re: External HDMI display crash after little to no use

Post by avgguy25 »

The DP crash was very strange. Usually, like you said, I still have functionality on the laptop display. In that case, I didn't, and had to disconnect the cable to get it back. The strange part was, I did the usb-c connection next, and under 'display', the external monitor using the DP connection was still an option. So three options in total, the usb-c external display, the dp port external display, and the laptop screen. I didn't select the dp port option because I really have no idea what kind of badness that would've caused, just strange that the 'ghost' of the dp connection lingered like that.

I did try the DRI_PRIME=1 on a few programs in terminal, and ran them all simultaneously to see if it would crash, but it never did. I did a timeshift backup, then took the plunge, ran sudo nano /etc/environment, and added DRI_PRIME=1 on the next line, rebooted, and proceeded to stress it out like no tomorrow to see if there would be a crash. So far, none at all :D . Here is the inxi -Fxxxrz output with the aforementioned applied, and connected via HDMI:

Functionally, the issue seems to have been resolved. The AMD DIMGREY_CAVEFISH is now the renderer, whereas the AMD RENOIR was the renderer in, I think, every other instance. I'd like to keep testing it though before I make the issue resolved, if that's ok. It could just be having a good day for all I know, but I'm optimistic.

For posterity's sake, I could undo the addition to the etc/environment file, reboot, crash, and run the dmesg -T | tail -n 200 command you mentioned, if you think it'll help id exactly what the issue is.

Usually, what is in xrandr is what shows up in the Display app, so seeing all three in the Display app makes sense.

Let it run for a week or two and if all is okay, then come back and mark the topic solved.

The Dell with the similar AMD/AMD graphics which I referenced in my first post had the dedicated GPU renderering without needing to set the environment variable so I had been suspecting that would probably provide more stability for you, but I wasn't 100% sure. That's why I asked about about the dmesg output. It's working now so I don't see a need to check it.

While trying to find more info, I did come across the link to the platform/x86: hp-wmi: add support for omen laptops which I understand will be part of the 5.16 kernel. If you run into issues related to temperature you may want to consider adding it while waiting for a newer kernel to be available through Linux Mint.

This has definitely fixed the issue. You were absolutely correct, adding the DRI_PRIME=1 added stability to the display, maybe (I don't know for sure) sort of locking in the smartshift aspect. No crashes or issues of any kind, and so far, heat has not been an issue at all. Thank you so much for all the help (and the tutorials!). :D
