Title: Black screen with Linux-zen 5.9.4
Post by: francesco on 06 November 2020, 17:36:20
Its not a problem, but the report of a little problem.

After the update of yesterday, the notebook no longer boot after upgrading to linux-zen 5.9.4

All is right booting with the standard linux now at 5.9.2

The beat is the TUXEDO Book XUX7 Gen11 CPU i9 10900K

All normal with the standard DELL with an i7

I've found laptops beeing particularly picky with the kernels; they tend to like some versions more than others to the point of not booting on what they dislike. So, once I find a kernel that works reasonably well, I tend to stick to it for as long as the hibernate/resume cycles succeed. Last one was 4.20.14-ck which held for over 150 days (several hundred cycles) before a cheap USB3 hub I had plugged in made it croak on resume and discarded the hibernation image.

@ nous, till now I never had great problem with the "old" DELL, its the first time with a kernel, but I've always a second or third kernel to save me ;-)

@alium, I'll do and I'll report
