Update to kernel with a bug

Hi all! Updated my system yesterday to 20240515 and got a kernel 6.8.9-1-default with a bug. I thought it’s a well known issue Bisected: Games crash on 6.9rc5&6/6.8.9/6.6.30 if above 4g decoding/resize bar is disabled or not supported, fixed in 6.9 (#3343) · Issues · drm / amd · GitLab that affects me too as amd user. Now I’ve booted to previous 6.8.8 to get all work and I wanted to report it.

Thanks for the notification - to report a bug, you need to submit it through our bugzilla - https://bugzilla.opensuse.org (use the same credentials you used for the forums). That’s the way to get it in front of the developers so it can be addressed.

Welcome to the forums :slight_smile:

Specific kernel versions can be kept using:

pavin@suse-pc:~> grep ^multiversion.kernels /etc/zypp/zypp.conf 
multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,running,6.7.4-1-default

You can also try kernel-longterm to see if that solves the issue.

Thank you. Reported the bug here 1224436 – games crushes on kernel 6.8.9-1-default. Hope I did it right

Nice! thank you, now I don’t worry I’ll left with unusable kernels :sweat_smile:

If the developers need additional info, they’ll definitely ask for it - and in my experience, are very good at helping you find the info they need if you’re unsure of where to look. :slight_smile:
