Ok. Yeah, Nvidia drivers would do that…
I don’t think I have anything proprietary running though, certainly not Nvidia. And yes, I don’t presume it would have affected everybody. But it affected me, and so I assume also someone else. I simply meant that by the time the Arch linux-lts package reaches 6.18, the problem would probably have been fixed. That is why I originally proposed switching the meta package to point to something similar. (As I said, I thought then that the meta packages existed as equivalents for the said Arch packages.)
But thanks for bringing up linux-lts-latest etc. If they existed and were dropped for a reason, then that’s ok.
