No console on bootup, but I can ssh in. Fortunately I make it a habit to keep the previous kernel around, so I can fall back to it. But I'd like to get the latest kernel working. This is an old BIOS-boot Lenovo. File-attached is the diff between the .config files from 5.15.69 to 6.6.13 kernels. In "vim" or "less" go "/2191a2330,2331" and you'll get to the beginning of the video stuff. Any ideas? -- Roses are red Roses are blue Depending on their velocity Relative to you
