This may improve performance for some 2D workloads, potentially at the expense of other (e.g. When using Glamor as acceleration architecture, it is possible to enable the ShadowPrimary option, which enables a so-called "shadow primary" buffer for fast CPU access to pixel data, and separate scanout buffers for each display controller (CRTC). KMS ColorTiling2D is only supported on R600 (Radeon HD2000 series) and newer chips: It is disabled if the DRM module is too old or if the current display configuration does not support it. Tiled mode can provide significant performance benefits with 3D applications. TearFree is a tearing prevention option which prevents tearing by using the hardware page flipping mechanism:ĬolorTiling and ColorTiling2D are supposed to be enabled by default. For older drivers, which use DRI2 by default, switch to DRI3 with the following option: Older cards use EXA.ĭRI3 is enabled by default since xf86-video-ati 7.8.0.
#AMD RADEON SETTINGS OVERSCAN DRIVER#
Please read radeon(4) and RadeonFeature first before applying driver options.Īcceleration architecture Glamor is available as a 2D acceleration method implemented through OpenGL, and it is the default for R600 (Radeon HD2000 series) and newer graphic cards. The following options apply to /etc/X11// nf. || radeon-profile-git AUR Driver options radeon-profile - Qt application for displaying info about a Radeon card.Note: It is required to set a kernel parameter ( amdgpu.ppfeaturemask) in order to enable the AMD Overdrive technology within GNU/Linux. WattmanGTK - A GTK3 user-interface written in Python 3, which allows you to view, monitor Radeon performance, fan speeds and power states and the ability to overclock the graphics processor.Performance tuning Enabling video acceleration Using this section, you can enable features and tweak the driver settings.
#AMD RADEON SETTINGS OVERSCAN MANUAL#
If you want manual configuration, create /etc/X11//nf, and add the following: Configuration is only required for tuning the driver. Xorg will automatically load the driver and it will use your monitor's EDID to set the native resolution.
#AMD RADEON SETTINGS OVERSCAN INSTALL#
Install the mesa package, which provides the DRI driver for 3D acceleration. See the feature matrix to know what is supported and the decoder ring to translate marketing names (e.g. If unsure, try this open source driver first, it will suit most needs and is generally less problematic.
