Fedora 38 not finding secondary monitor with AMDGPU

[gaiability (gaia l)]

Hello there

I got the same problem. After updating Fedora 38 Workstation today, it doesnt find my secondary external monitor. The monitor ran well yesterday over USB 3 Display port/connected to HDMI. When connecting it directly to the HMDI port it works. Running with 2 external monitors, and one works fine. None of them work connecting to the Display port

Running on a Thinkpad t14 AMD Ryzen 5 Pro
Kernel Linux 6.3.11-200.fc38.x86_64

Would love some help.

dmesg | grep secure
[ 0.000000] secureboot: Secure boot disabled

[ 5.195132] amdgpu 0000:07:00.0: amdgpu: SECUREDISPLAY: query securedisplay TA failed. ret 0x0

The following commands give:

nvidia-gpu-firmware.noarch 20230625-151.fc38 @updates

dnf list installed ‘amdgpu’
Installed Packages

Hope someone here can help

NB. Additionally, at times Fedora started having issues booting and closing down.

What GPUs do you have?
Please post the output of inxi -Fzx

You seem to have a laptop Lenovo Thinkpad T14 with only an AMD GPU.
Note that this original topic was related to a system with nvidia GPU and had a solution some time ago.

I am moving your post to a new topic so the issue may be addressed in a more appropriate manner.

Idk if this is the same issue but I am struggling with something similar on fedora-38 with similar system specs and AMD Ryzen 7 5700U.

Installed it today using the Fedora Sericea spin.
Just jumped ship to wayland from 2 years of fedora i3 spin.

swaymsg -t get_outputs

Output Unknown-1 'Unknown Unknown Unknown' (focused)
  Current mode: 1920x1080 @ 60.000 Hz
  Position: 0,0

Googled around as hard as I could but unable to figure this one out, used fedora for a few years now, new to wayland and sway though.

Saw some posts from people saying they fixed it by rolling back the kernel version, however I am new to ostree and have no clue on how to roll back when this is the oldest version the system has ever been at.

Hope this helps in terms of figuring out the cause. I am available if you guys need any more info though.

So in my case it seems like grub2 was not correctly configured.

I had no gpu’s listed in /sys/class/backlight/ folder.

The fix was to run

sudo grub2-mkconfig -o /boot/efi/EFI/fedora/grub.cfg

worked fine afterwards.

Hope it helps.

So, finaly I found the solution here : https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2220888 Vitezslav Zivota 2023-07-12 08:58:17 UTC Latest working version is amd-gpu-firmware-20230515-150.fc38.noarch.rpm which you can download from linux-firmware-20230515-150.fc38 | Build Info | koji, this fixes the “Error waiting for DMUB idle”. Do not forget to regenerate initramfs (dracut --regenerate-all --force) after firmware downgrade. So I Do : $ sudo rpm -Uvh --oldpackage amd-gpu-firmware-202305…
