[BUG] AMD GPU and DRI3 with high load and dropping framerate

[hgw77]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

I want to report a problem with DRI3 and AMD GPU (happens with composite on and off)

1. I have Debian host with installed AMD Ryzen 7 2700X and AMD Radeon RX 560
2. I start the docker container in privileged
3. I can see the GFX Card within the container (nvtop)
4. I start xtern and type something
5. I can see that the load on the GFX card is going through the roof and the framerate is going down so the desktop is nearly unusable
6. only a restart helps to bring it back to normal

I reported that issue before with my intel GPU and the conclusion was it could be related to my old 6gen Skylake CPU. So I was hoping this is going away when I use AMD GPU and CPU but the problem is the same. So I guess there is a general problem somehow?

X11 acceleration is not going to be developed anymore and you need to clamp your resolution as noted in every readme.

I would highly recommend moving over to wayland, XFCE has support now you can test it on the Ubuntu or Arch image. The only big bug I found is they mess up pathing for the wallaper config storage so it does not stretch properly, but it seems like they are still hammering out minor bugs.

webtop 4.0 I missed that 😅

wayland is much better 👍 Thank you!
