I've got a brand new pi 5 8GB with a fresh install of piOS.
Everything loads fine and quickly. Once I get the desktop though the performance is horrible. In Wayland I can barely move the mouse it's so laggy. In X11 I can use the mouse but clicking on the menu takes 2-3 seconds to appear. It's not usable.
I've tried multiple SD, a USB thumb drive, an NVME. Power supply is Canakit pi5 power supply. Active Cooler is installed.
I tried, 64bit, 32bit, Pixie, Bookworm, all with the same results.
Searching for answers I saw someone ask (on an unrelated post) what the result of dmesg was. I ran that and lo-and-behold, GPU errors!!! Great! Now I know what's going on. How do I fix it? Or is the board DOA?
