Rog Ally X crashes when waking up
What I find odd is that I'm not able to reproduce this all the time. Sometimes sleep and wake will work fine, sometimes it would freeze. When it freezes I can access the device via ssh, but nothing on the display. I cannot reboot it wyth systemctl reboot either, I need to force reboot via the power/sleep button. This is another wake freeze I just had: https://paste.centos.org/view/8d0e7b47 (wake up at Apr 28 17:07:02)

eGPU crashes randomly and Rog Ally X needs a force reboot
I got freezes when waking up today without pci=nommconf so that might not be the culprit on the freezes. Will not be re-adding it until I figure out the freeze just in case. I don't think the lact watt/clock changes could have affected that and I'm seeing some HHD exceptions so I started another post on that.

eGPU crashes randomly and Rog Ally X needs a force reboot
I've got to play a bit more with my setup. So far I haven't seen any crashes. But, the pci=nommconf resulted to freeze my system upon waking from sleep. So after wake it would not display anything on the internal or external display until a force restart. Buttons were also non responsive like I could not put it to sleep again. Now sleep/wake are working again. I'll play some more and in the upcoming days and conclude if the wattage + clock limit will have fixed my crashes. Appreciate your help!

Played for about an hour and a half with no crashes. This is with nommconf on. Will try again tomorrow. If it does not crash then I’m not removing nommconf or trying without it anymore.

Re-adding thunderbolt.host_reset=0 makes the external monitor the default after a reboot. I have to stick with it.

eGPU crashes randomly and Rog Ally X needs a force reboot
I experienced the powerlimit issue like one year ago and I solved by removing the option in hdd to write Tdp to /sys
I did this and can now see the slider show the correct values. Do I set it to the max? The Max is 332W, while clicking Default sets it to 289W.

Method 2 and 3 were not able to switch to external monitor after boot.

I'll try adding the host reset back in and see if that will fix it again (I used to have this before that karg)

eGPU crashes randomly and Rog Ally X needs a force reboot
So far I removed all these kargs that I had added recently due to try to solve the GPU crashes and added the pci=nommconf in. Rebooting does not automatically switch to the external monitor (but sound through eARC does). I'll try running all-ways-egpu again now and see how it goes.

After a reboot my external display would not display anything but the sound would come out of it. I was looking at this similar issue that the dev suggested the kargs and that made reboot always switch to the external display: https://github.com/ewagner12/all-ways-egpu/issues/42#issuecomment-2764261679

I'll have a look at PCI and playing around with the kernel args later today when I'm home. Would there be any issue with HHD not being able to write to /sys? I can deactivate it to try but hopefully HHD will still be able to apply TDP in handheld mode.

Yeah I had to add thunderbolt.host_reset=0 because it was suggested from the all-ways-egpu dev to help with auto-switching to eGPU after reboots. Is it okay to leave it like that?

eGPU crashes randomly and Rog Ally X needs a force reboot
Yeah this is the GPU I have https://www.techpowerup.com/gpu-specs/sapphire-nitro-rx-6800-xt.b8324 and it lists 2360MHz as the max. I tried setting it to 2350MHz. The power usage limit seems to be broken on lact (seems to show the APU limits). I can see that it is pulling way more than that, like up to 270W when GPU is at 100%.

I've had no luck with the clocks I set above. Would you mind sharing what your suggestion would be? Have you had such an issue that you resolved via setting clocks speeds? From my understanding the 2444MHz that was set as default is too high as 2360 is the Boost that my card supports, but even setting that to 10 lower like 2350 I'm having backouts.

I ended up just updating my Max GPU Clock from 2444 to 2350. The manufacturer list the max as 2360. The Min GPU Clock and the Memory ones were left as is. 
Core Clock: 500 to 2350Mhz
Memory Clock: 1348 to 2000MHz
Core Clock: 500 to 2350Mhz
Memory Clock: 1348 to 2000MHz

eGPU crashes randomly and Rog Ally X needs a force reboot
I tried these settings based on the GPU specs but the device got very slow and had to force a reboot. I think it doesn't like the min memory clock. 
Core Clock: 2000 to 2360Mhz
Memory Clock: 2000 to 2000MHz
Core Clock: 2000 to 2360Mhz
Memory Clock: 2000 to 2000MHz

Gamemode won't start with egpu
I’m sorry can’t be of much help. I’d suggest opening an issue on all-ways-egpu github as I’ve noticed the dev is very helpful.

Oh okay. Never tried it with internal display as I usually dock it to the tv.

Before I was able to get boot to work this was how I was able to get gamemode to external monitor. Your Rog Ally screen should be "off" like not literally off but will show a tty like screen.
