My problem: Videos render fine when in a floating window, but flicker beneath a fully white screen when in full screen mode.
Moving the cursor returns the video, but once the GUI controls disappear, the screen flickers again.
I have tried to take a screenshot of it, but using the GNOME tool actually returns the image.
I have reproduced the problem in Gnome Videos, MPV, and VLC.

unsure about EndevorOS (ive never used it) but in other OS’s i’ve tried this helped a lotsudo kernelstub -o “amdgpu.sg_display=0”

If EndevorOS is using systemd-boot, then the above is correct. Not sure, I have not used it.
If grub, edit accordingly:
/etc/default/grub
Add:
To GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX=
Update grub.
Also make sure you’re on the latest BIOS .

I run this on GRUB because there is a WIN11/EOS dual boot.
I will edit the grub config and report back.

The problem reoccurred, even though the line was added to the GRUB config.
Here is the output of journalctl

I just experienced something similar:
Framework Laptop AMD 13
running Linux
suddenly, the screen started to flicker between the normal display and an all-white display
nearly identical kernel messages (see below)
However, it didn’t happen while playing videos (I can play videos with mplayer just fine, windowed or fullscreen).
It happend when taking a screenshot (I use a combination of slurp and grim).
The only way to fix it was to kill my composer (sway) and restart it.
It seems to be reproducible so I’ll try the fix suggested above and report back.

[92552.865514] amd_iommu_report_page_fault: 32601 callbacks suppressed
Edit: first, I rebooted without changing anything - and then I wasn’t able to reproduce the bug. I.e. when I tried to take a screenshot, it worked just fine (no flickering). I’ll wait until the problem happens again to see how frequent it is.
I’ve had the laptop for a few weeks now and hadn’t seen this issue before (even though I usually take lots of screenshots). It might be caused by a recent change. The two recent changes that I can think of are:
reset of the BIOS to factory defaults (to troubleshoot another issue), which might include changing the amount of RAM allocated to the GPU (I had initially tweaked the BIOS setting to give more RAM to the GPU, and resetting the BIOS means that it’s now back to default)
upgrade the kernel from ??? to 6.8.1
add amd-ucode (I hadn’t installed it initially)
To be continuned

running Linux
Depending on what kind of linux you are gonna need to turn off scatter gather and use the game optimized igpu memory setting in the bios. That stuff was only very recently fixed, somewhere in 6.9.x (or at least it seems fixed as far as I can tell)
turn off scatter gather and use the game optimized igpu memory setting in the bios
Awesome; the igpu memory setting is one of the things that was changed recently, so with a bit of luck, that’s the reason why.
I don’t remember seeing the scatter gather setting in the BIOS but I’ll figure it out.
Hey, since you seem to be knowledgeable about this - do you know if there is any downside in using the game optimized igpu memory setting, other than reducing the amount of RAM available to the system?
Thanks a bunch!
That’s not in the bios that’s a kernel param.
Appart from wasted ram not that I know of.
