[[6.9.x - 6.11.x] intel i915 module causing system hangs with no report in syslog (not alder lake)]

Is this a permanent or temporary fix. Should we wait for linux driver updates to the intel drivers or unraid server update as the official fix? Can you plex hardware transcode?

Yes full Plex hardware transcoding on QSV, will keep like this until the next stable version of Unraid ships. It sounds like Linux kernel 5.16.x has big updates for the i915 iGPU driver so fingers crossed that the next stable version of Unraid 6.10 ships with this. 6.9.2 is the current stable release of Unraid.

My server locks up randomly after awhile even with plex hardware transcoding off (doing software transcoding for now). My iGPU basically does nothing right now but still causes the occasional lockup. i5-11600K

 

this was my solution that allows full Plex hardware transcoding on QSV- linking here just in case it helps:
