VRR on Framework with 2.8K screens?

Word on the street is that you can now get variable refresh rate on Framework Ryzen laptops with the new 2.8k screens. Any idea when the updated AMD drivers to make this happen might show up in Bluefin?

This should already work? I think there was ujust command to enable the vrr flag. Not at home right now so can’t check the actual command but you can run.

The “word on the street” might be about the windows support, which was enabled in the newest drivers. amd drivers are in the kernel on the linux side

ujust --choose
and then type vrr in the text field, it should give you the command to execute.

OK interesting. Its still not showing up in the Gnome settings for me, even after shutdown and restart. Maybe not available on stable?

No idea on what kernel version it came but i think it should already be in 6.10

My 2.8k display is in my Intel Ultra 7 155H atm.

I rebased to Bluefin testing is looking good. This is where we’re free of the ghost display, it’s also where I easily enabled gnome vrr, logged out, logged in, profit.

To further check for vrr behavior, I rebased back to stable.

Then enabled enabled gnome vrr, logged out, logged in. I found vrr to be present on Intel Ultra 7 155H, 2.8K display.

Updated this guide to reflect everything.

Chris if you can confirm that bluefin:latest works, that has the latest kernel.

Hey @j0rge I’ve got a Framework 13 (Ryzen) with the 2.8k screen and VRR does work for me after upgrading to 6.11.4 on :latest this morning :+1:

I’m now on bluefin-dx:latest but I still do not see VRR in the settings.

Install Dconf from Gnome Software.
Open it and type experimental and click the listing.

Aha, thanks! Its working now.
