You know. Never mind.


Its HDMI forum issue. Because AMD want to implement in their Linux drivers (which are open-source). But HDMI forum do not want them to become open source, see related issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/1417
In fact, AMD already invested several months in fully testing and developing 4k 120Hz. Its possible, but the HDMI forum people are blocking this, because the HDMI forum has the latest saying… Its all about money this world. And the HDMI forum is evil.


Some may call it shady. I call it Linux ISOs. Damn capitalism.


No it’s called censorship.


Nope. Not my TV. Only hdmi


Could you sent me the exact product?


I did heard something about non-working airports etc. I think it’s better for people to get rid of this malicious software.


The product description doesn’t mention anything about active or passive. Which makes its very confusing for me now.


Uh… I bought this product (see link below) , but now I’m confused if this is an active or a passive adapter. Which adapter do I need for this… A passive or active adapter to get DP++ working?
This was the product I bought in the past: https://www.amazon.nl/dp/B0B2ZF95KC (the site doesn’t say anything about passive or active)
ps. I also hope my videocard and TV supports DP++ then.
EDIT: I also see DP1.4 to HDMI 2.1 cables (so without the need of an adapter). Is that also maybe a solution? Like this: https://www.amazon.nl/PremiumCord-DisplayPort-kabel-mannelijk-stekker-resolutie/dp/B0FKMNB65S


I also don’t get it… Just 1 DP port is sufficient for me… And before people are saying… just use a DP to HDMI adapter… Well, I tried… And it doesn’t work either for some reason… I still can not get 4k 120Hz. (yes my TV supports that, yes… I also tried “gaming mode” on my TV)



I tried… it didn’t work…



I’m ready, but Amd is not. I want 4k 120hz on my TV via Amd videocard. But this stupid hdmi forum is blocking this.


That isn’t an option now with my htpc (home theater pc) connected to my TV.


Caddy is also fine.
I wrote a blog about server hardining and you might find it useful: https://blog.melroy.org/2023/server-hardening/


I want Amd to have 4k 120hz support on Linux please? Stupid hdmi forum.


Yes, I run many services and website on the public web from my homelab. Harden your server first. Like disabling root ssh login.
Also enable auto updates on your server. Use your router/server to block some counties using geoip (especially if those services are meant for only a couple of people within your county maybe?). You could also use block lists, there any many bad ip lists out there.
Configure rate limits in Nginx.
You also mentioned fail2ban. You can define many rules and actions. Like blocking ips that might go over your previously defined rate limits. Or 4xx action for ips that request a lot of non existing pages (404 errors) .
Also captcha won’t cut it anymore today. Try https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis
Of course expose only what you want to expose, so only open ports in your firewall you really want to open. Ideally put everything behind a reverse proxy like Nginx.
Let’s start with all of the things mentioned above. Ping me later if want to know more or have questions.
I found it here as well in a local Amazon store luckily: https://www.amazon.nl/Cable-Matters-Unidirectionele-8K-kabeladapter-ondersteuning/dp/B08XFSLWQF
Thanks! I ordered it right away and will test it soon on my TV. I will also first check for firmware updates, since people saying to do first a firmware update.
