There is KMS support with the AMDGPU driver, sadly it requires some proprie= tary blob :( During the Guix days you mentioned that you went for KMSCON because of enco= ding issues if I recall correctly. So what about this: on startup, test if KMS = is supported. If not, fall back to the default TTY, and too bad for the limit= ed encoding :p Would that work? =2D-=20 Pierre Neidhardt https://ambrevar.xyz/ --=-=-= Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQEzBAEBCAAdFiEEUPM+LlsMPZAEJKvom9z0l6S7zH8FAlxa534ACgkQm9z0l6S7 zH/yDAf+J3MvAo+spqb9sLEEkItUyXQBDIyi0RRV41qpAeTDOCPMeOHAUplLukhX 3vMIBzGjBnhhn2o7UvIrBk7JyVwqRKWLgEHG9edRkZBPRp1MsNwSOSdTHoM6U0os GnKo8LYzTpAAww5E+Eiyaf6O5xtro9McvkyTK7wl2mEMdylNv4+5Jr5vKjUxEyjD Wv7B/Q843sSWhlVrFNKMNwwQd4HHAbAy1nuS51flTle/C2EHUZjfLLZikn/4wKz5 6a1BXOLlt4WYH8u/B+KsT1CEILxmrJ5awwysCai+KFNwfSRSmIuSTjn4C88kGUO3 nF9SPAxyNx/Yf9xjGCPbX99tYHMp+w== =topA -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-=-=--
