[SOLVED] Regression on display resolution in linux 6.4.3

Description:

When I upgrade from linux 6.3.8.arch1-1 to linux 6.4.3-arch1-2, fewer screen resolutions were available for `sway-wm`.
And for `awesome`, setting resolution with `xrandr --output eDP-1 --mode 1920x1200` results in a black screen.
The issue also happens in the latest kernel 6.4.6.arch1-1.
Not sure if it is a kernel regression or a device-specific regression. I'm going to put it here in case someone had any thoughts.
Rolling linux and linux-headers back to 6.3.8 resolves the issue.

Additional info:

Kernel: 6.4.3-arch1-2
Model: ASUS M3400QA Laptop
WM: sway/awesome

Steps to reproduce:

1. Upgrade linux and linux-headers from 6.3.8.arch1-1 to 6.4.3-arch1-2
2. Either start window manager with `sway`, or `startx /usr/bin/awesome` and run `xrandr --output eDP-1 --mode 1920x1200` in a terminal.

I doubt that the ata error bears any relation to your resolution issue, but since you've amdgpu loaded, see https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php … 0#p2111560

Re: [SOLVED] Regression on display resolution in linux 6.4.3

Thank you for the reference! I must have missed that thread. This issue should be solved now.
