Hi, I notice a regression report on Bugzilla [1]. Quoting from it: > Null pointer deref > > after reverting 326e1c208f3f24d14b93f910b8ae32c94923d22c the problem is gone and the kernel does not crash anymore > > See this discussion for details: > > https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2102715#p2102715 > See Bugzilla for the full thread and attached journal log. On the other hand, from linked Archlinux forum link: > Hi, > > I am running arch successfully since a couple of years on my Acer ConceptD 7 laptop. Since a kernel update on 24th of May I am having strange issues (never seen this before): > > - sometimes I cannot even login (using gdm) - after entering password just a blank screen > - if I can login I can start working - after a while commands I enter in the console are accepted but do nothing (i.e. grub-mkconfig -o ..... can enter the command but just no output - it does nothing - happens with most other command then as well....) > - Reboot does not work - stuck somewhere - have to switch the machine off the hard way > - this happens even when entering runlevel 3 (so no window manager) > - same happens on the laptop of a friend (exact same model) - unfortunately I have no other piece of hardware which I could use for testing to potentially reproduce the problem > > Managed to trace this down to all kernels after 6.3.3.arch1-1 - so 6.3.3.arch1-1 it the last one which works without any problems > Same applies for the LTS kernels - not 100% sure but think 6.1.29 ist the last one which works > > Currently I have marked linux linux-headers and nvidia to not upgrade. LTS kernels are upgraded but the latest two kernels (latest from today) up until 6.1.31-1 do NOT work > > Problem: Since most of the command fail when using one of the latest kernel - it is almost impossible to debug - at least I am not knowledgable enough to know where to look. Anyway, I'm adding it to regzbot: #regzbot introduced: 326e1c208f3f24 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=217517 #regzbot title: USB typec quirk for Asus Zenbook UM325 triggers system freeze on Acer ConceptD 7 #regzbot link: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2102715 Thanks.
