Whoa wait, I forgot to attach the file. Hold up another hour

Half you, half me I uploaded a file that didn't decompress properly. First delete both copies of xorg.conf.tar.gz that you've already downloaded, then download the one attached to this message. Then (and don't forget this time ;)): tar -xzf /home/daniel/Downloads/xorg.conf.tar.gz Then: sudo...

OK, next: Download the attached file to /home/daniel/Downloads/. tar -xzf xorg.conf.tar.gz sudo su cp /etc/X11/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.20190724.backup cp /home/daniel/Downloads/xorg.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf At this point, you should be able to reboot and confirm that you still get a...

Sorry, cat /etc/X11/xorg.conf

Ok, let me see cat /etc/xorg.conf We're on the home straight, as soon as I work out where your X settings are hidden

I'm not going to be too much use tonight, shattered and taking an early night. Can I see ls /etc/X11

OK, also download the file from post #162 and follow the instructions to extract and copy that file: ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ If there's not already a file called 20-nvidia.conf in there, then download the attached, and: tar -xzf 20-nvidia.conf.tar.gz sudo cp 20-nvidia.conf...

Can you also run ls /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ If there's not already a file called 20-nvidia.conf in there, then download the attached, and: tar -xzf 20-nvidia.conf.tar.gz sudo cp 20-nvidia.conf /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/. At that point, in theory, you should be able to put your cables back computer...

OK, it's 11pm and I'm up at 5am, so need to sleep now. We'll get this working tomorrow - I'm pretty sure we're just a couple of button-clicks away. EDIT could you also: Open nvidia-settings In the menu-bar on the left click where it says "HDMI-0 HISENSE" then on its page click "acquire EDID"...

Not the grub.txt file from earlier today, the 4096x2160.bin.tar.gz file I attached in message 152.

Oh... and I guess you're on Wayland?

OK, you needed to download the file I'd attached to my last message before attempting to run the instructions - rookie mistake, but still, one that rather stopped the rest from working.

Maybe on Windows, where software is expensive, but since Linux has so many free alternatives, you're limited in the paid-for applications you could pirate. And... if you really need the paid-for version, chances are you'll pay, as paying for software is such a novelty ;) So, I'd be looking at...

OK, so here's what we do next, because having proven that there's nothing wrong with either your computer, or your TV, we now just have to convince your AVR to play nicely. Leave everything connected to the TV just for the moment. Download the attached file. I assume it downloads again to...

Excellent. I noticed in the screenshots before that you'd set the screen to only 30Hz in nVidia Settings. The whole point of this exercise is to get you 4K@60Hz, and thus get rid of that awful flickering... so leave it set to either "Auto" or 60Hz in future. Anyway, xrandr showed it was a...

Ok we can remove the edid app again - served its purpose sudo apt-get remove read-edid

Ah splendid, so the problem is just convincing your AVR that it exists. Bear with me

Would've been nice to know that a couple of days ago; ) Ok, next: while still connected directly to your tv... Reinstall the edid app: sudo apt-get install read-edid sudo get-edid -q|parse-edid Paste output

That's great. Have sound too?

You'll need to be more specific wrt sounds - did that happen since changing driver, or before, or after?
