I had the same issue, but my display went from 2560x1600 @ 165 Hz to 1600x1200 @ 60 Hz. Swapping the open driver for the non-free driver didn’t fix it for me. All I could do was boot to the last working kernel. Here’s inxi -GSaz output of the three configurations I tried, the last one being what I’m using now.
