"amdgpu: The CS has been rejected" crash on gstreamer

deedee · 2 September 2026 20:46

Hi,

I recently swapped out my videocard for a Radeon HD7800 series. Since then I’m experiencing a specific crash while playing Hollow Knight Silksong (with wine). The game runs fine, except cutscenes cause a hard crash. Completing the Flexile Spines quest for example.

System is up to date (unstable branch)

How can i debug this further?

You already have the answer in the snippet you posted…

deedee · 2 September 2026 21:42

I did try dmesg, but that only shows my gamepad connecting/disconnecting.

libertypo · 3 September 2026 04:39

would you care to let us know your hardware info and what dmesg command you used?

I have rebooted and ran dmesg again with grep amdgpu.

Please provide the output of:

inxi --filter --verbosity=8

or the short form (preferred):

inxi -zv8

inxi man pages (Arch Manual)

Running `inxi` in `chroot`

Providing `inxi` when you cannot access your desktop environment

Providing `inxi` when you cannot access your desktop environment:

If you are unable to copy and paste the inxi output due to being unable to access your desktop, but can still access a TTY text session, then you can send the inxi output to a pastebin service:
inxi -zv8c0 | nc termbin.com 9999
Note: the nc command may require installation of the openbsd-netcat package:
pamac install openbsd-netcat
or
sudo pacman -Syu openbsd-netcat
After the output is sent, a link to the inxi output will be provided, which you can then add to your forum post.

If you are not allowed to post links in the forum due to being a new member, you can still paste the link as code by typing 3 backticks ``` on empty lines above and below the pasted URL.

Any code or command output (such as inxi output) should be placed within a scrollable pre-formatted text enclosure according to forum guidelines.

See here for instructions

[Mini How-To] format code or command output

Select and copy all the text in the Terminal window (minus the prompt, if you are using zsh).

Then paste the output in between two lines containing three backticks:

Or:

Copy & paste, then highlight the pasted text and click the </> button at the top of the reply window (easier for smaller outputs).

Your active kernel is unsupported on Manjaro.

Please switch to a supported kernel e.g. Linux 7.2 (recommended when using AMD hardware)

sudo pacman -Syu linux72

libertypo · 3 September 2026 08:33

That’s a few thousand lines of noise that doesn’t help your case.
But first things first :
As @linux-aarhus pointed out, update the kernel as the earlier versions of 7 series had some glitches with AMD hardware

As for dmesg you should use a combination of dmesg and grep to filter the noise and display only relevant facts.

dmesg --help
grep --help

deedee · 3 September 2026 08:57

I did. Just to clarify, the only thing that changed on the system was the GPU.
Previous GPU was a GTX970 with Nvidia 580xx drivers, this worked without problems.

A list of changes / timeline:

removed Nvidia GPU
installed Radeon GPU
installed xf86-video-amdgpu package
set kernel command line options: radeon.si_support=0 amdgpu.si_support=1 amdgpu.dpm=1 amdgpu.ppfeaturemask=0xffffffff
removed Nvidia drivers

Got an immediate crash with Silksong, after some digging found that dxvk was not set up.
installed dxvk with winetricks. Game running except cut scenes (where we are now),

EDIT: I tried linux72 just now as requested, but still gives me the same crash.

@deedee

Note that the z in inxi -zv8 filters personally identifiable information from the command output.

When z is used, any further redaction is superfluous and only succeeds in limiting the scope of information that might assist in successfully diagnosing your issue.

Please see:

[Mini-HowTo] Provide System Information

Basic details provided by *-fetch type apps might give enough information for someone wishing to buy a computer, however, for Support purposes it’s best to ask your system directly.

Output of the inxi command will generate more useful and detailed information for those who may wish to help:

Suggested inxi command (use either):


`inxi -zv8`	(short-form)
`inxi --filter --verbosity=8`	(long-form)

man inxi (The inxi manual)

Command output should be presented as pre-formatted text in accordance with forum guidelines.

Running inxi within a chroot environment

Add --color=0 to the long-form command, or…
Change the short-form command to inxi -zv8c0

Your privacy is respected

deedee · 3 September 2026 10:20

Considering the state of the world today i don’t see how being cautious is a bad thing. If there’s something really important missing just name that so i can reconsider.

soundofthunder · 3 September 2026 10:26

This is for reference: The general expectation is that when output from a command is requested, especially by forum staff, it should be provided; especially given that your caution has already been addressed by filtering the output.

As you may imagine, having to request portions of the inxi output which you could have already provided is less than optimal.

Regards.

I’m just wondering if any of these extra boot parameters are still required?

You shouldn’t need all of the radeon & amdgpu parameters if you install linux71, linux72 or linux73 (RC) as, from linux619, the kernel defaults to using the amdgpu driver for AMD GCN 1.0 “Southern Islands” or GCN 1.1 “Sea Islands” graphics cards:

Regarding the elevator=noop boot parameter, remove that from your boot parameters and see if running the kernel’s default scheduler fixes the issue. Possibly the noop scheduler is causing the issue. We should at least rule it out by booting with the default kernel scheduler.

Chapter 8. Storage and File Systems | Performance Tuning Guide | Red Hat Enterprise Linux | 7 | Red Hat Documentation:

So, install linux71 or linux72 (or linux73 if you want to test the next kernel), remove the noop, radeon & amdgpu boot parameters from /etc/default/grub, run sudo update-grub, and then reboot to see if the problem still occurs.

Moving from wine to wine-staging fixed the issue.
