xXx Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 (edited) Si, por el momento no hay compatibilidad con Intel 12. Versión: 6.10.0-rc7 (Kernel: Linux 5.15.37) Edited May 8, 2022 by xXx Quote Link to comment

What is the purpose of blacklisting the i915 drivers? Any chance they work with RC7 and the 5.18 kernel? I've seen some suggestions that adding "options i915 enable_guc=2" makes QS work, but I assume that command means nothing if we're blacklisting the drivers. Quote Link to comment

May not be required for 5.18 kernel as support should be in stock kernel. You can add to syslinx or in the modprode.d/i915.conf the guc=2 options but I dont know if that works with Alderlake.

This suggests that it does. Just to confirm, that setting should work irregardless of the blacklist? Quote Link to comment

I think intel_gpu_top blacklists the driver automatically (or *something* is on my server). So I'll need to remove that first. edit: GPU Statistics and intel_gpu_top are gone, and I have no idea what's force blacklisting it. I remove it from modprobe, reboot, it comes back. Is Unraid doing it? Edited May 7, 2022 by flyize Quote Link to comment

flyize Posted May 7, 2022 Share Posted May 7, 2022 As somewhat expected unblacklisting and trying both: options i915 enable_guc=2 options i915 enable_guc=0 failed Quote Link to comment
omygoodness Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) I was asked in different topic to share some steps which might help someone. I am using i5-12400T and I managed to run Plex HW without any issues on 6.10.0-rc3, rc4, rc5. What I did: Created /boot/config/modprobe.d/i915.conf and added blacklist i915 Rebooted chmod -R 777 /dev/dri Installed Intel GPU TOP plugin Passed /dev/dri into Plex docker container Done I did update to rc8 today and it stopped working so I restored rc5 and everything is working as expected.

NightOps Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Maybe there’s better drivers for the UHD 730, but I ran the exact same steps for my 12600k, got it running and verified HW transcoding worked, and would have a crash somewhere between 7 and 9 days. The overwhelming majority of plays through Plex are Direct for me - so seldom do I have a transcode going on. If I forced one over cellular, it would crash immediately. At this time the 12600k is beefy enough for me that I have been fine without iGPU supported/configured, but I would love to have it working. I’ve tried on rc2 through rc5, just gave up. 1 Quote Link to comment

In my case most of plays are direct too but I can switch to HW anytime. I was suprised to see that people have so many issues with 12th gen. My guess is that might be a problem with E-cores. 12400T has only P-cores and it is working fine. Quote Link to comment
NightOps Posted May 13, 2022 Share Posted May 13, 2022 Lack of E-cores and different iGPU... though personally I'd be surprised if it came down to the E-cores, and would actually be potentially much more problematic. Quote Link to comment

My 12500 doesn't have e-cores but has the upgraded igpu. What's weird is that other owners of the 12400 report lack of stability. I think flyize runs a 12400 if I'm not mistaken. 1 Quote Link to comment

It works fine. But we've ended up with system wide hard locks. It's not about e-cores, as I get them on my 12400 and it has none. Maybe the T version is different? Has a different iGPU? I don't know. But I'd get (like everyone else) hard crashes every couple days. The frequency *seems* to depend on how busy your Plex server is - mine does probably somewhere in the neighborhood of 30 transcodes per day and many more direct play streams. Quote Link to comment

Mine is not a -T model, though, just the base 12400. Quote Link to comment

SurfinBirdman Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 Just adding my experience here. Followed instructions outlined in here with my 12600 and same results. System crashes after a day or 2 of running Plex. Left Plex off and it didn’t crash, so definitely specifically related to Plex using igpu for the transcoding. Joining the team in the waiting game for a proper kernel update and permanent fix. The price you pay for new hardware on a system built to run on old Quote Link to comment
flyize Posted May 14, 2022 Share Posted May 14, 2022 BTW, while the iGPU still doesn't work in 5.18, the CPU transcoding performance is MUCH better. If you're okay with swapping the kernel, I would highly recommend it. Quote Link to comment
