Re: GPU crash when playing video on firefox

1. try to disable c-states in the UEFI
2. test a completely different software stack (eg. *slightly* older ubuntu live system) and see whether you get the GPU to reset there. The other thread is pretty similar, so this might actually be a software problem (likely kernel or mesa)

I am not sure if I have C-State in my BIOS. These are the pages with power related settings, is any of this what you mean?
These are two images of the BIOS settings:

- https://0x0.st/86-p.jpg

is popOS! 22.04 good? or shall I take ubuntu 22.04? or more recent?

It really doesn't matter, just make sure that HW acceleration is actually invoked.

Nothing there looks like c-states, ppc-adjustment might be interesting…

I ran popOS! 22.04 LTS, and I got interesting results.
- if I ran a youtube video on firefox, it works without a problem. (with hardware acceleration enabled)
- when I ran a video using mpv --hwdec=auto, it crashes.
