Haha yeah, I sell these at work and recognised it immediately! It's literally just the inner part you solder the wires onto, without the outer casing.

I tried to find a photo, but I struggled:

I believe I've actually had this happen with actual VLC, I think I just hit pause and then play and it was fixed. So maybe pause it for half a second after your seek.

To me that does sound like your initramfs just needed recreating, since un/installing a module will do that usually.

how do i do that?

Probably by editing your GRUB config or whatever bootloader you're using.

Here is the EDID

Thanks, that should be enough I'll have a look when I'm free. Also something like get-edid > monitor.bin would probably be easier for me though.

Edit: I've had a look, I can't see any issues. Both checksums validate correctly and it advertises audio support. As you've probably seen in edid-decode, I'd expect it to show as 'SONY TV' (or at least for KDE 'Sony SONY TV' I believe).

I wrote a guide here: stevetech.me/posts/force-enable-vrr-edid

But it was mostly just changing random things and hoping for the best, so YMMV. I hope it helps!

None of my monitors (which are all DisplayPort) have audio, but one appears in the audio settings, so I'd say DisplayPort itself does support audio.

Is edid/sony.bin your new EDID? Does it revert back if you remove drm.edid_firmware all together?

Also, do you mind sharing your EDID? I had to edit mine to get VRR to work, so maybe there's something invalid in yours. It does contain serial numbers though if that's a problem.

Is it possible to send the hint from OPNsense itself?

Yes, to me it sounds like you're already getting a big enough prefix from your ISP (all devices getting a /64), but you'll have to request a bigger prefix from OPNsense. I believe it should give you the options to do this when you set the IPv6 mode to DHCPv6 on OPNsense, but I can't say if your ISP router will handle it.

I believe the main contributor for drm_panic wants to add one eventually. Here's what it might look like:

Link if you can't scan

Also it looks like the colours are configurable at compile time (with white on black default).

Also a solution: Use Wayland, it'll probably break other things, and Nvidia support is only just getting there; but it's multi monitor support is amazing, so it should fix that issue. So maybe it's worth a try?

For electron, if ELECTRON_OZONE_PLATFORM_HINT and electron-flags.conf don't work, you can also add --ozone-platform-hint=wayland to the end of Exec in each .desktop file (also works on Chromium, but not CEF AFAIK and sometimes CEF).

There's also --ozone-platform-hint=auto if you find yourself switching between X11 and Wayland.

I have also added all Cloudflare IPs in Jellyfin's known proxies

You should only need to add the IP of the last proxy before reaching Jellyfin, which would be Caddy.

I don't think I've ever seen an AMD powered laptop unless it used an APU.

There's at least 4 on AMD's website, so they do exist but they don't seem very common.

Also Intel has laptop chips, but I'm not sure if it's actually discrete or just another die on the CPU.

The CAD files for the Framework 13 have also been out for a few years too.

ADCs, DACs, IO extenders

These should all work without kernel drivers. For example, here's a user space python library for ADS1*15 ADCs, or Nuvoton MS51 IO Expanders. Unless you need very specific timing or require the kernel to know about it, you shouldn't need a kernel driver.

Idk, with I2C if it's not something that needs a kernel level driver, there usually isn't a problem with interacting with it from user space, for example basically all RAM RGB controllers are I2C and OpenRGB has no problem with them. I'm pretty sure I've only ever used an I2C device tree overlay for an RTC.

Also I2C/SMBus is present everywhere on x86, like some graphics cards expose it through their HDMI ports, even some server motherboards have a header for it; but for GPIO I'm unaware of any motherboards that expose it, so good luck researching the chipset and tracing out the pins.

but I can't figure out which of the "0000:00:whatever's" correlate to my Bluetooth card

lspci will list your PCI devices and their ID, but if it's a combo WiFi & Bluetooth card, they usually use PCIe for WiFi and USB for Bluetooth.

I don't remember OpenAI's website, but I know there was 'Text To Transformer' which was just run by some guy who eventually couldn't keep running it.

I used to use a Google Colab notebook after it shutdown, which would have similar results.

There's also Write With Transformer which is probably the easiest, but it's not the same.

I think you embedded a webpage instead of just a gif.

This should work:

If you can't get the VPS to work, alternatively there's Cloudflare but last I checked streaming was a little out of their free terms. With it, you should just have to set your AAAA record and make the cloud orange, that way Cloudflare will proxy it, and IPv4 will work. There's also Cloudflare tunnels which lets you host websites without port forwarding anything.
