Hi there,
I successfully run Devuan 4.0 arm64 on a Pi4b, but HDMI screen turns off and never comes back when all 4 cores are used for long compilation tasks. The screen goes off and never comes back.
Note that I use the full KMS graphics stack, so in config.txt I have:
dtoverlay=vc4-kms-v3d
And in cmdline.txt I have:
video="HDMI-A-1:1280x720@60"
Note that all hdmi_* config options are ignored in full KMS mode, since it uses the standard Linux KMS interface instead of the Broadcom-propietary video interface that those hdmi_* options are for.
This bug also happened on Raspberry Pi OS at some point, but it was eventually fixed:
https://github.com/raspberrypi/firmware/issues/1598
It has to do with throttling: throttling is happening, but it shouldn't cause video to be disconnected.
Also, is there a Pi4 arm64 kernel package I can update via apt-get? The image comes with a custom PREEMPT kernel, which is great, but I don't know how to update the kernel or the firmware (dtbs, etc).
Thanks!

If you fix your heat/thermal problem so no throttling occurs.
With a simple heatsink.
All this will go away .. ~

@ShorTie: Yes, but throttling shouldn't cause video to go off. That's a different issue.
