Screen refresh delay with kernel errors

[shawnanastasio]

Since we've established now that the issue is more widespread than I originally thought, I've gone ahead and written a proper patch for this that I've submitted to the upstream kernel mailing lists. The new patch adds a new kernel commandline parameter to disable PSR so that users encountering this issue can simply modify the APPEND line of their extlinux.conf to enable the workaround.

The patch can be found here: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/11626737. With it applied, you just need to add

Code:

analogix_dp.enable_psr=0

to your kernel arguments to enable the fix.

I can also look into getting the patch included in manjaro's linux-aarch64 patchset.

Hey all,

Trying this out -
using the linux-aarch64 pkg as described above

when trying to run mkpkg -o, get the following errors:

==> Extracting sources...
  -> Extracting linux-5.7.tar.xz with bsdtar
bsdtar: Failed to set default locale
  -> Extracting patch-5.7.6.xz with xz
==> Starting prepare()...
/home/blee/linux-aarch64/PKGBUILD: line 117: patch: command not found
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare().
    Aborting...


any ideas? fairly noob here, what am i doing wrong?

thanks!

The issue is right there in your log:

Code:

/home/blee/linux-aarch64/PKGBUILD: line 117: patch: command not found

You don't have the patch command installed. You can run `pacman -S patch` to install it. You'll probably also need to install some other tools to build the kernel like gcc, make, flex, and bison.
