http://bugzilla.opensuse.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1186896 Bug ID: 1186896 Summary: AMD Rhyzen 7 4700H Renoir: brightness + ext screen don't work Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE Distribution Version: Leap 15.2 Hardware: Other OS: Other Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel Assignee: kernel-bugs@opensuse.org Reporter: opensuse@pohw.nl QA Contact: qa-bugs@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- ** Platform Info ** Distribution: Leap 15.2 Kernel: 5.3.18-lp152.75-default CPU: Rhyzen 7 4700U Graphics: # lspci -nnk | grep -A3 VGA 05:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. [AMD/ATI] Renoir [1002:1636] (rev c2) Subsystem: CLEVO/KAPOK Computer Device [1558:a500] Symptom: Changing the brightness of the laptop screen doesn't work. Turning the scroll wheel over de battery icon in the system tray does't do anything. No change in brightness. But I do get the mmediate and unexplainable popup of the external monitor widget (see attachment). Peculiarly, the settings are correctly registered. Before: rietgors:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:05:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0 # cat actual_brightness max_brightness 21 49 After: rietgors:/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:08.1/0000:05:00.0/backlight/acpi_video0 # cat actual_brightness max_brightness 36 49 Exactly the same happens when I directly echo values in the "brightness" device from the command line. No change in brightness and immediate popup of the external monitor widget.

They hang hard during the boot process. If I select the Fail Safe option from the boot menu, they both hang at the following location in the boot screen (typed over from photo, see attachment): [drm] amdgpu kernel modesetting enabled.
