An upload of xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu to jammy-proposed has been rejected from the upload queue for the following reason: "This looks like an SRU-acceptable bug, but the uploaded package has weirdly-doubled patches and FTBFS. Please fix and reupload a package that builds! ☺".

Hello Kai-Heng, or anyone else affected,

Accepted xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu into jammy-proposed. The package will build now and be available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu/22.0.0-1ubuntu0.1 in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package. See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how to enable and use -proposed. Your feedback will aid us getting this update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug, mentioning the version of the package you tested, what testing has been performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-jammy to verification-done-jammy. If it does not fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-failed-jammy. In either case, without details of your testing we will not be able to proceed.

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s) fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in -proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

I enabled jammy-proposed and upgrade xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu. Made sure Xorg was selected in GDM, then connected an external monitor which routes to AMDGPU instead of Intel. Close the lid to make the external monitor the single display, the refresh rate is smooth so the issue is resolved.

I also boot up an AMD APU laptop to test the package and no regression was found.

The verification of the Stable Release Update for xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu has completed successfully and the package is now being released to -updates. Subsequently, the Ubuntu Stable Release Updates Team is being unsubscribed and will not receive messages about this bug report. In the event that you encounter a regression using the package from -updates please report a new bug using ubuntu-bug and tag the bug report regression-update so we can easily find any regressions.

Basically the same as Jammy.

I enabled focal-proposed and upgrade xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu. Made sure Wayland was not selected in GDM as Xorg is the default, then connected an external monitor which routes to AMDGPU instead of Intel. Close the lid to make the external monitor the single display, the refresh rate is smooth so the issue is resolved.

I also boot up an AMD APU laptop to test the package and no regression was found.

This bug was fixed in the package xserver-xorg-video-amdgpu - 19.1.0-1ubuntu0.1
