Re: VRR/FreeSync does not work no matter what I try. Reply #1 – 15 June 2022, 16:03:00 This *should* work. I have a VRR display myself and I use amdgpu with no issues. In my conf, I don't have the DRI option set (should be DRI 3 anyway, everyone has used that for like 10 years now) nor the "EnablePageFlip" setting (not sure what this one does). Have you tried the VRRTest utility? I've used it to test VRR on my machine and it works correctly.

Re: VRR/FreeSync does not work no matter what I try. Reply #3 – 15 June 2022, 18:33:03 Have you tried removing the EnablePageFlip option and restarting xorg to see if that makes a difference?

Ill install artix with KDE on a second partition to see if that changes anything So I made a 20gib partition with the Artix KDE iso install and after blacklisting the Radeon driver and adding the amdgpu vrr config it works on that install.But when I install KDE on my main OS it still doesn't work.Maybe xfce is messing something up? that's my guess for now

Re: VRR/FreeSync does not work no matter what I try. Reply #7 – 15 June 2022, 21:23:48 compositor disabled on both KDE and Xfce. I'll try installing KDE and nuking everything xfce related on my main install, let's see how that works out
