  • For me it’s hdmi 2.1 on AMD. Starting to really hate my decision of buying a TV as a gaming display, purely because of how much windows sucks. Just booted it up to see if my samba server was working, only to find it has no internet connection whatsoever. Wifi also connects but no internet access, but i know for a fact it’s working because both on linux and my phone it’s working fine. Already tried a bunch of troubleshooting, including resetting the adapters competely. I’m starting to suspect the mullvad vpn app somehow fucked something up, because i’m not connected to their servers right now because i haven’t added more time to my account. Internet should work if i disable the vpn app though, so idk what’s wrong there.


  • Yeah, i had the same issue when i decided to buy a LG OLED C5 as my monitor a few months ago. The silly thing is i had already heard about this being a problem before buying it but forgot about it. I ended up swapping my dualboot around and give windows the bigger SSD for all my games, since i really didn’t want to live without high refresh and vrr. I also didn’t want to return the tv because it was a better deal than any monitor at that size, plus it has more features. Pretty much had to give up linux gaming though ;(. I did a lot of research into adapters but all of them are finicky at best and still miss some features like vrr, so it is what it is.
