Updating with info from other users with the same amd gpu with=
128MB VRAM:
- one user was able to switch to VT and start a second Xserver which then
worked fine.
- another user found out that connecting an external monitor would work, was
able to log into gnome and in the monitor manager, the internal display sho=
wed
as disabled. So he could simply enable it and started working.
So this seems to be failing on xrandr --auto, not correctly adding the inte=
rnal
display to the config. Looking what Ubuntu does:
# Pass provider or sink and source
xrandr --setprovideroutputsource "$sink" "$src"
# Make sure xrandr sees all the outputs
xrandr --auto
# Do not move up. Only now xrandr shows the outputs
lvds=3D$(xrandr | grep -i -e "lvds" -e "edp" | head -n1=
|cut -d " " -f 1)
xrandr --output "$lvds" --off
xrandr --output "$lvds" --auto
So it already disables and enables the internal display as a workaround for
something but this still isn't enough in this case.
Maybe this is some timing problem so that adding a "sleep 2" eith=
er before or
after xrandr --auto would make that work?
Doesn't explain why this is only happening on this specific model, though.<=
