i am facing an issue i am on wayland fedora 42 linux and fully updated issue is when i see play a full screen video my system hangs screen goes black and i have to force restart to fix this but when i set this as 100% i never find any such issue what so ever. tested with all browsers and all resolutions.
last 10 min log of the issue
Did you try to get to a virtual console with Ctrl-Alr-F3?
Do you have another system that you can ssh into your failing system from?
If so you should be able to get latest logs that may have clues about what has gone wrong.
I see amdgpu and imagine it’s a HW video playback ordeal, but if it works at 100% then it sounds like an interaction between GNOME and amdgpu (maybe an experimental fractional scaling thing or fractional scaling/DRM/amdgpu interaction).
I’m not sure what to suggest, but if it’s a driver bug it might need a manual fix (patch/recompile); I’d report it upstream.
thanks
i just do it and it hungs again but i switch back to 100 no issues at all.
if you need any details let me know.
yes i did but screen stay black
i did not.
i think the issue is with fractional scaling
This is so that you can run journalctl and see the latest logs it was not a suggested fix. I hope that there are logs reporting error you can find.
Check both system and user journals.
I will be busy .i will try that. But i am sure that frictional scaling does this issue but yes. I have to mention this i have tested kde plasma with a flash drive and it did not have that issue…
Once you have a error logs related to the problem you have useful information that the developer is likely to need to understand why fractional scaling is breaking.
Then you can raise a bug report that is has a chance to be worked on.
