Hi everybody,
I recently bought a Core i5-11500 aka Rocket Lake CPU with a Z590 Mainboard (to be mor specific: ASUS ROG STRIX Z590-I GAMING WIFI).
My current setup is listed in my signature. My plan was to take my nvme ssd and put it into the new mainboard........
First problem I stumbled upon, with an integrated graphics card, the Z590 chipset doesn't allow you to run legacy mode, csm as ASUS calls it.
So I grabbed gparted and freed some space for an EFI partition and installed what was necessary (took me a little while).
After that was successful I fired up the new setup and the result was "default" display with a resolution of 1024x768....
With the help of some google-fu I found out that the drivers are net active from the scratch
You have to enable the graphics card with it's ID via modprobe (I also saw an ID of 4c8b):
Also in GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX
With that I had my 4k@60
BUT, no hardware acceleration enabled. Also one weird thing, my mceIR didn't work properly anymore.
Maybe it was too early to hope it would work
So I put my ssd into my current system back and everything was back to normal and kickin.
I will try a fresh install of Ubuntu 20 or maybe 21 (not sure for now).
Did anybody else tried out firing up a RocketLake on Ubuntu?
I thought it would be nice to have a thread to discuss findings and ideas
