There’s something in the kernel log when the freeze happens:

Seems very similar to Best practices for multigpu in clamshell/docked mode in Fedora 41. Did you find a fix @four20grazeit?
Disabling the GPU power management with a kernel parameter (amdgpu.runpm=0) does fix the problem, but it’s not a great solution.
So I guess the problem is just that wezterm and xrandr wake up the dGPU when they start. It’s not really a problem for xrandr, but for wezterm it is, because I start it very often.
I tried setting a preferred adapter in wezterm config and setting webgpu_force_fallback_adapter to true, but that doesn’t change anything. It probably still enumerates the GPUs.
And changing the frontend to “Software” triggers a render bug that makes the term unusable.
So I guess I’ll have to find a new shell.
