Greetings.
I have just run into an interesting problem after upgrading to an i7-9800X from an i7-7800X. With the current 5.7.0-1 kernel & the 5.6.0-2 (current Sid), the system will not fully load GDM (no mouse or keyboard). Furthermore, the time at the
GDM login screen is not displayed correctly. I run 2 Sid installs, 1 a
week back in updates from the "Main" system. I booted into my backup
install & found after a bit of experimenting that kernels before
5.6.0-2 will boot correctly--only the 2 newest kernels are affected,
5.6.0-1 & the older 4.19.0-X series work just fine.
I am
wondering what has changed in 5.6.0-2 to cause this response. I can
provide any logs/info needed to track this down--I was going to file a
bugreport, but didn't know to assign this to the newer kernel series or
to GDM.
More information--I tried both wired & wireless mice/keyboards with no change..none will work--cursor is frozen & no keyboard input. I have looked at the posted changes for 5.6.7-1,
5.6.14-1&2 & 5.7.6-1 & have not "really" seen anything that would shed light on this issue. Perhaps someone with more kernel experience would take a look?
