Dmesg's "delayed_fput hogged CPU" & "Atomic update failure on pipe A"

Hardware Support

Thanks a lot for the Grub analysis! I'm following your suggestion, bringing it back to a clean version ("quiet splash i915.enable_psr=0" parameters only) and then seeing what happens. At this point, while using FreeTube, Firefox and playing OpenTTD for a few hours, there have been no freezes or graphical glitches whatsoever; in spite of that, the "delayed_fput hogged CPU" errors (dmesg -w) are still present, the same for the "Atomic update failure on Pipe A" - albeit this one appears to have become less frequent.

I'll be testing and "stressing" the system for a few days in order to gather a better picture of the current situation, and then I'll report back to you. :+1:

Somewhat adventurous, yes, but with a good motive and at least one backup plan. :wink: :clinking_beer_mugs:

While I'm definitely interested in bringing the GeForce 310M back to use, the dealbreaker in the particular PPA you've offered is that it's not compatible with Wayland. :disappointed_face:

Tell me if you are aware of a similar project that addresses this.

Well, more than just Nvidia, I think.
i915 [drm] ERROR Atomic update failure on pipe A
Wayland relies heavily on atomic modesetting.

Those old nvidia legacy drivers don't support wayland.
