[Stable Update] 2024-01-13 - Kernels, Systemd, Qt5, Mesa, Dbus, Firefox, Thunderbird

After this update my system hanged on boot on either kernel 6.6.10-1 or 6.1.71-1.
By unsetting “quiet splash” in the kernel parameters at boot I could see the error

Failed to start Samba NMB

similarl to this topic Boot stuck on [FAILED] SMB/NMB after 20220123 upgrade .

Suspecting something else I disabled nvidia_drm.modeset=1 and the system started booting again.
So I can boot and the system works as expected, but without this parameter my laptop’s 2060 consumes a ton of power.

Does anyone have a solution or a similar problem ? The system worked fine before the update.
