I removed it now, and everything seems to be working without any issue, other that now the brightness is no longer being controlled by the EC and cannot be adjusted outside of a graphical interface. I'm going to keep it like this, I'll let you know if any issue should arise. As for the other cmdline arguments (which I had quite too many) I realized that the only non-standard one I really need is `nouveau.modeset=0`, without which the driver - and sometimes the whole system - hangs (as this laptop has an old NVidia GPU I don't use but keep always disabled). Do you suggest opening another thread regarding that on this mailing list, or should it be better somewhere else? Regards, Juri
