Linux Mint (LMDE 6) drivers for Framework 16?
Linux Mint (LMDE 6) drivers for Framework 16?
I know the drivers come in the distro package manager, but, is there a set straight from AMD? Trying to use Brave causes freezes and black screen flashes, which I'm pretty sure is a driver thing.
The AMD drivers come from the kernel. You might try the Debian backport kernel and see if updated drivers help (assuming the kernel parameter isn’t it). It’s currently version 6.6.13.

If this is the same common issue, there's a thread on the forum about it, but IIRC you can add
amdgpu.sg_display=0to your kernel parameters.I know the drivers come in the distro package manager, but, is there a set straight from AMD?
If you really want, you could try the AMDGPU Pro drivers, but I'm not sure if they're compatible with integrated graphics if you don't have the expansion GPU.
Well, I spoke too soon. A minute later, it died and took my desktop with it.
Hm. It doesn't want to accept
amdgpu.sg_display=0. It looks right from here, but..$ sudo update-grub /usr/sbin/grub-mkconfig: 42: /etc/default/grub: amdgpu.sg_display=0: not foundGrub doesn't actually validate the parameters themselves, but the whole config, so you've pasted it into the wrong spot. It should go in the string that follows
GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT.If it still happens, could you post your grub config?
Also some people have had success setting the GPU to game mode in the BIOS too.

It seems to have fixed itself after a couple reboots. If it starts again, I will try the kernel parameter. Thanks!
Are you using fractional scaling? I had similar issues with LMDE (not with Brave, though), and switching to 200% solved it.
No fractional scaling.
