There is a nasty regression in amdgpu in 5.10.4 that bugs resume from suspend (monitor doesn't turn on) and monitor not waking up from sleep mode (DisplayPort). I'd try 5.11 series, but it's probably regressed there too.

If it won't get fixed in 5.10.5 I'll file a bug.

I'm not using suspend, but I just successfully woke up from "sleep" and the monitor is fine, I'm on 5.11rc2 which I downloaded from here [1].

Also, with Linux 5.11rc2 my Polaris 10 video card (RX 570) is now FINALLY fully stopping its fan from spinning when appropriate. I'm using kisak-mesa ppa with 20.3.2 from here [2].

I have 5700 XT, so some of that might be Navi specific.

A: "Holiday Things"

Q: How come none of you fscks told me about the Stranger Things Holiday Special?
