Graphics Artifacts

Hi all,

I’ve encountered some intermittent graphical artefacts on my FW13. To me, it looks like some sort of memory or GPU error. Has anyone else encountered this issue?

Upon rebooting the machine, the artefacts disappear, but quickly reappear once I start using my computer. I will have a go at re-seating the memory/display cable once I get home and have access to my torx drivers again.

On boot, I did encounter the following error, but I believe this is unrelated
kernel: ucsi_acpi USBC000:00: unknown error 0
kernel: ucsi_acpi USBC000:00: GET_CABLE_PROPERTY failed (-5)
kernel: ucsi_acpi USBC000:00: unknown error 256
kernel: ucsi_acpi USBC000:00: GET_CABLE_PROPERTY failed (-5)

Any suggestions or advice would, as always, be greatly appreciated.
Please see below for some screenshots and my device info.

Downgrade mesa to version 24

I had the same issues with my AMD 780M on Kernel 6.13.7 with the current Mesa Package (Version 25.0.1).

I fixed it by setting

amdgpu.dcdebugmask=0x400

Which will disable PR and switches back to PSR.

So far my issues are gone. Before that i had constant issues and glitches like yours.
