Anyone here has RX 9070 XT? Is there a way to disable RGB? in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[–] Alaknar@lemm.ee 1 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

Hmm... There's a connector from the card to 3-pin connector on the motherboard, but the description in the manual suggests that it only allows me to control RGB through it. As in: if I don't connect it, they'll just be on in whatever default state they're in and that's that.

I'll look into this, thanks!

Oh, nice! Thanks for the info!

In general, I’d suggest being a bit more curious and playing around with stuff

Man, I'm 40, my 9-5 job is being curious, testing and retesting stuff. When I'm home, I just want to play some games....

Like you said you didn’t understand the options for OpenRGB and it sounds like you didn’t try installing it at all to eliminate it as an option before posting

Yeah. I've learned (through curiosity and testing, btw) that it's super easy to break stuff in Linux, so I was a bit weary of installing third party software that does "something" to control the LEDs on a graphics card.

I did test it out yesterday, though. Sadly, does not recognise the GPU. It did recognise my mouse, though, which is neat.

It’s not like an app like OpenRGB is going to break your GPU or anything.

That's the thing - I'm in a state where stuff works and is fine. That came after five reinstalls and three distros. Linux is not Windows - it's fairly easy to do some unrecoverable* damage if you don't know what you're doing.

* yes, I know, technically everything is recoverable, but that requires knowledge and time, neither of which I have for this kind of stuff.

Is it possible to learn this power??

I would rather disable it on the OS level because I'm slightly paranoid that the dGPU dies at some point and then I can't even access UEFI, because the iGPU is disabled.

Ooh, nice one! I'll need to have a look for some detailed manuals/design diagrams of the Sapphire Pure, see if it's mentioned.

Huh, a Windows VM might be a brilliant solution to this.

And now I'm wondering - could I maybe use something like Bottles or Wine to install the Windows software that handles Sapphire LEDs? Or would these apps not see the dGPU when virtualised like that?

someone suggested disconnecting the LEDs themselves, which is not something I’m willing to do with my 2-day old card

Ah, good to hear there's hope! Thanks for that!

Yeah, I can clearly see the 40 year old finance analyst doing a deep-dive on the intricacies of the Linux Kernel because he can't connect his WiFi.

This is exactly what I mean. You people are so disconnected from reality you're doing more harm than good to your own cause.

Hi all!

I know that AMD has software for controlling RGB on Windows. I found some old threads where someone suggested disconnecting the LEDs themselves, which is not something I'm willing to do with my 2-day old card.

I also would love not having to switch to Windows just to turn the bloody RGB off.

I've never used OpenRGB and I don't quite understand their compatibility guide for the 9070, so I'm not sure if it's doable there.

So! Does anyone here have that card and was able to disable RGB on Linux?

As a sidenote: I just realised that my OS sees two GPUss - the dGPU and the iGPU. Is there a way I can turn iGPU off so that it doesn't get in the way?

Any help appreciated!

Oh, I should probably mention - I'm on:

OS Garuda Linux x86_64
├ Kernel Linux 6.13.8-zen1-1-zen
├ Packages 1366 (pacman)[stable]
├ Shell fish 4.0.1

DE KDE Plasma 6.3.4
├ Window Manager KWin (Wayland)

Hi all!

I recently installed Tuxedo OS with KDE and Wayland. I'm fairly new to Linux and, so far, the distro is great. With one caveat.

As far as power options go, everything works fine EXCEPT for Sleep. I can put the PC to sleep, but when I wake it up, I land on the login screen wallpaper with the login/password fields barely visible, as if frozen around the second frame of a fade-in animation.

Nothing works. The mouse cursor doesn't move, the keyboard doesn't do anything. The only way out of this state is to hold the power button until the PC shuts down and then turn it back on again.

I did some digging, but couldn't find a solution. Some threads mentioned modifying something in systemd, but those were from years ago, so I didn't want to risk that.

One fairly recent thread had a proposed solution of adding "mem_sleep_default=deep" to GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT in /etc/default/grub.

That didn't work for me, though.

I'd love to fix this, but I'm out of ideas. Any help welcome!

EDIT

Forgot it might be a driver issue, people were complaining about Nvidia gear!

I currently don't have a dedicated GPU. I only have Ryzen 7 7800X3D running on MSI B650 Gaming Plus WIFI ATX AM5 MoBo.

Minecraft clone with spriting? (lemm.ee)

Hi!

I JUST switched over to Linux and am trying my hand at gaming. Learned about Luanti and got VoxelLibre going. Game's great, but the lack of sprint is killing me... Looked for mods that would support it, but people were saying that the only one made stopped working.

Are there any good and active (in development) Minecraft clones that have that feature?
