[Driver bug] Ryzen AI HX 370 Arch Linux Plasma Wayland Display Corruption - "prefer color accuracy" setting

Hi, I’m using Arch Linux, up to date as of 4/29/25, kernel 6.14.4-arch1-1
I upgraded from i5-1135g7 to Ryzen AI HX 370 mainboard, with 32GB of ram.
BIOS 03.03

After the upgrade, the internal display (the upgraded 2880x1920 display) has corrupted visuals. See photos below.

I did a bit of troubleshooting, and found that everything works fine with Windows 10, or Xorg, and corruption only happens with Wayland (KDE Plasma 6.3.4 in my case). External displays (Thunderbolt 4 dock) work perfectly fine. TTY, login screen (SDDM) work fine. I tried changing display resolutions, refresh rate, disable adaptive sync, disable PSR (, but the issue persists.

Edit: The issue dose not occur with GNOME Wayland. So it’s a kwin_wayland related issue.

TL;DR: display corruption on the internal 2880x1920 display in Arch Linux with Plasma Wayland only.

Anyone else seeing this? any other ideas on how to fix it? Thanks!



Was able to narrow it down to the “Prefer color accuracy” option in KDE Plasma. Existing bug report here, looks to be an issue with the AMDGPU driver: 502905 – Display corruption when Prefer Color Accuracy is turned on

Hardware is very new… After many years with OG framework with 11th gen Intel CPU I forgot hiw new hardware feels/behaves and seein way too many issues now with Ryzen AI 300 board… Probably will be much better by end of year, but xoming months will be tough. Good I have dual-boot and can boot to Windows in case of serious issues…

After fixing that issue (also note, prefer color accuracy isn’t the default - I had previously changed it), everything has been working perfectly now. Hardware video decode for AV1 and everything. From what I can tell from researching, support for this chip in Linux is fairly mature - it’s been out for a few months in other laptops - but there is small bugs here and there is with any newish hardware. overall, it is working very well for me now.
