--- Comment #8 from Nikola Novoselec <[email protected]> ---
You're right, and I apologize for the noise.

I let an LLM have a go at analyzing the logs and the conclusions I'd drawn, and
clearly didn't verify the output thoroughly enough. The `DRM_MODE_FLAG_DSC`
reference is definitely a hallucination - that flag doesn't exist in the kernel
and there's no proposal for it either. I should have caught that before
posting.

I've since traced the actual KWin code path and confirmed you're correct:
`DrmOutput::setDrmDpmsMode()` calls `commitPipelines()` with
`CommitMode::TestAllowModeset`, which does set `DRM_MODE_ATOMIC_ALLOW_MODESET`.
The premise of my analysis was wrong.

The DSC correlation in my testing still holds (7680x2160@120Hz fails, lower
bandwidth modes work), but as you pointed out, if KWin is doing the right
thing, the issue is in the NVIDIA driver. I'll open a bug with them instead.

Thanks for taking the time to respond and for catching the hallucinated
content. Lesson learned on verification.
