Hi all, Not sure if this is a distro specific, DE specific, a monitor brand specific or just linux/AMD in general. So, I have an RX580 GPU. It is an older one, but does just for what I do on my PC (emulation). Everything works fine until I start one of the emulators and play a game. I have two 27" 4k monitors, a dell and a sceptre. Once the game starts, the sceptre monitor starts going black every couple of seconds, then comes back up. This continues until I stop the game. Both monitors are connected through DP to the GPU. Not sure what to do, to be honest. All drivers are there when I checked (as far as I know). This happens on both wayland and xorg. Any input is greatly appreciated! If anyone needs more info, please let me know. Thank you

Where do I disable the compositor manually instead of the key combination? Where in the settings is it located? Also, I’ll try to make the asshole monitor the main one and see what happens.
Settings>Display and Monitor>Compositor>Uncheck “Enable on startup”
Thank you for that. The script sounds like a good idea. I didn’t find “autocompose”, I found “autocomposer”, is that the same one?
yes
Yup, that’s the one. Thank you. I’ll mess with it and see
