  • As an AMD user i would like to share a list of the problems i’ve had in the past month, which happen to be the only hardware related problems i’ve had on the system:

    • Hibernation suddenly stopped working, destroying my ZFS in the process (Hibernation has since been fixed)
    • amdgpu shat itself (no vulkan devices, no opengl context) (and for some programs fixed itself) (resolved after reboot)
    • Fans stopped following their given fan curve (resolved by fw update)
    • CPU stopped thermal throttling (resolved by microcode update)

    Other than these my system has worked perfectly fine.


  • There are no lockdown mode restrictions on my system. Kernel is not signed, but i switched to UKIs a couple months ago (hibernation worked fine with these).

    It is worth noting that the failure is hibernating, not resuming. Normally hibernate takes ~1 minute with fans spinning at max speed, but it recently started not finishing and instead being stuck on a black screen for more than 30 minutes without the fans running until i run out of patience (i hibernate before i go to sleep or head out) and force power off the system (power button 10 second press on my system).
