Description

Hello,

I have an issue when launching ChimeraOS for the first time on my Samsung 4K TV. After instalation on first boot I get the boot splash with my motherboard logo then a black screen. I cannot ctrl+alt+f3 and the system looks inresponsible. But if I boot the first time on a smaller resolution display, this time a 1360x768 display I get Chimera to boot normally and once its booted I can unplug and plug again into my 4K display and every subsequent boot will run fine at 4K@60 FPS.

My system is:
AMD Ryzer 5700X
32GB of RAM
Intel 660p 2TB
AMD Radeon RX7700XT (from Asrock)

Research direction

No source files, tests, or entry points are named. Begin by reproducing the first-boot sequence with the listed RX7700XT and Samsung 4K display, comparing it with the 1360x768 first boot; done means identifying a project-owned cause and verifying that a fresh installation reaches ChimeraOS at 4K without the workaround.
