Wayland Gnome running on an AMD Ryzen laptop.
This morning (2026 02 11, UTC 00.30) I did a sudo zypper dup which took me to Linux kernel 6.18.9. Then my wifi started acting up. Then I did a Btrfs snapshot rollback to the point prior to this morning’s update; 6.18.8. Now my wifi is back to normal.
Anyone else having issues with their recent sudo zypper dup updates? Just curious.
PS: As a Linux noob I am VERY happy that the Tumbleweed devs made it easy for a noob like me to use the Yast Filesystem Snapshots GUI tool and the rollback tool to rollback snapshots. Thanks!!
Also thanks to the GUI GRUB menu making it easy for me to select the correct rollback snapshot.
Your wifi is what Hardware?inxi -F

Can you post the kernel.txt from the non working system, executed as root:
grep -i kernel /var/log/zypp/history | grep -i 2026-02 > kernel.txt

My wifi still working good.
After using only Linux for about 5 years, my experience is that many Linux issues fix themselves after a day or a few days. Hats off to the quiet army of open source devs out there.
