Hello kernel/driver developers,
I hope, with my information it's possible to find a bug/problem in the
kernel. Otherwise I am sorry, that I disturbed you.
I only use LTS kernels, but I can narrow it down to a hand full of them,
where it works.
The PC: Manjaro Stable/Cinnamon/X11/AMD Ryzen 5 2600/Radeon HD 7790/8GB
RAM
I already asked the Manjaro community, but with no luck.
The game: Hellpoint (GOG Linux latest version, Unity3D-Engine v2021),
uses vulkan

I came a long road of kernels. I had many versions of 5.4, 5.10, 5.15,
6.1 and 6.6 and and the game was always unplayable, because the frames
where around 1fps (performance of PC is not the problem).
I asked the mesa and cinnamon team for help in the past, but also with
no luck.
It never worked, till on 2025-03-29 when I installed 6.12.19 for the
first time and it worked!
But it only worked with 6.12.19, 6.12.20 and 6.12.21
When I updated to 6.12.25, it was back to unplayable.
For testing I installed 6.14.4 with the same result. It doesn't work.
I also compared file /proc/config.gz of both kernels (6.12.21 <>
6.14.4), but can't seem to see drastic changes to the graphical part.
I presume it has something to do with amdgpu.
If you need more information, I would be happy to help.
Kind regards,
Marion
