Well when the crash happens and the screen shows an enormous amount of green artifacting, sure looks like a graphics driver and/or kernel issue to me. But yeah, I'm probably wrong because your experience is pristine. And the many hours of research I've done on this subject leads to the conclusion that there are issues with 6.13+ kernel, amdgpu driver, and Wayland, and especially if having more than one display connected (despite setting the refresh rates to the lowest common denominator).

But I'm sure I'm wrong and it's something completely different. Thanks for the insight.

Gosh, you sure got me. I certainly look like an idiot basing my opinion on what you wrote.

Thanks to your sarcastic reply I've learned to read the mind of commenters before replying.

What an idiot I am for not realizing all of the troubleshooting steps that you've taken simply because you never mentioned them.
