The problem was in X. Org I have solved it by separating org from.

I apologize if I have bothered someone, when I have complained because I did not see a solution by not seeing responses from anyone at some point.

We are all volunteers here. Not receiving a reply was due the lack of you providing the information we requested. Now is all over the places …

The only one bothered here seems to be you. have patience that now someone will take a look at what you provided so far, put it back together so they can understand what is going on, then give an informed advice.

@mlpbcn Keep in mind that all the people here are doing this in their spare time, so do not expect immediate help and give everyone some time to read things.

In addition the way you post is a little irritating. Currently you have 19 posts in this thread. @bogdancovaciu has asked you to provide the output of your terminal and explained how to do it. I will give it another try:

Please mark the whole text output of that terminal command with your mouse, right click, copy, then paste it here and format it using the </> button you have available when adding a post.

I apologize again.

Note: Ahora esta bien formateado el texto!

Create this file if doesn’t exist:

/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-amdgpu.conf
Please check first in Dolphin if that file exists, and add this lines to it:

Section "Device"
        Identifier "AMD"
        Driver "amdgpu"
        Option "TearFree" "true"
EndSection

If it doesn’t exist, create it like this from terminal:
sudo touch /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-amdgpu.conf
Then
kate /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/20-amdgpu.conf

Once you modify it, save it and reboot the system.

That’s it, now it works fine. Many thanks.

The file did not exist, I have created it following your instructions and that’s it, now it works fine. Many thanks.
