Source: linux Followup-For: Bug #989010 X-Debbugs-Cc: pitsior...@gmail.com I borrowed an old pc from a friend to test those 2 gpus. NONE of them reached the post, which means they are damaged now. Moreover, when the ati was connected, the system was beeping as if it had no vga on. Thank you debian for destroying 2 perfectly working pieces of hardware. If I could sue anyone who is responsible for this crap, I would. How about someone tells me what was changed in that -7 version that made all this mess. I compared the config files from testing's 5.10.28 and unstable's 5.10.38/5.10.40 and the changes were minimal.
As for nouveau, now that I have tested it for ~24 hours, I can definitely say it is way below average. 3d acceleration is poor, 2d acceleration is so and so and hardware video decoding (vaapi) seems to only exist on paper because I did not manage to make it work on all 3 of my players (mpv, mplayer and kodi). With all that going on, I did not have the time and the clear mind to check for the temperatures so as to find out how bad its powersaving abilities are.
