Only the very first restore/timeshift point works to get me here after , so i seem to have exhausted the possibilities on arch wiki and youtube/odysee , etc... I apologize if this is an obvious issue i do not yet understand.... I also very much would prefer to use my still in box xfx 5700 XT Radeon but a previous Programmer that i have very much to thank for even being here at all could not even figure out how to get it to work on this system i built myself.... Cannot thank you all enough for your wisdom, knowledge, kind compassion and selfless ;Dedication... Namaste, Light <3
