I’m having some random issues. I’m not sure what it is, but I suspect it might be graphics related. The last kernel and driver update is causing lags when I move things with the mouse? Moving windows or other items lags then catches up (windows, highlighting, scrolling are all jerky). When I checked my X11 settings after the update I found there were none. I rebuilt them and rebooted with no luck. It seems my GPU is being used, but I wonder if there is some odd GPU switching happening.
Here is the output I am gathering from inxi -Faz:

Can anyone help?
I also read that it might be related to a boot setting in a config.txt file , but I also cannot find said config.txt file.
