[qubes-users] HCL -- Intel NUC10i7 issues with kernel-latest

5.9.14 does not make it to X11 (empty screen with cursor). 5.8.16 works just fine.

Yeah,

I think I’m having the same issue - I do see the login screen, but the upper half of the screen is just black. Switching to console and back fixes that and I can log in, but then there’ are random glitches on parts of the screen/windows, etc. Disabling compositor mostly fixed that, but not 100%.

How did you install the 5.8.16 kernel? When I do something like

$ qubes-dom0-update kernel-lateat-5.8.16

it shows me the package, downloads it, but then it tells me “no package kernel-latest-5.8.16 available” so I’m a bit confused.

I’m currently running on 4.19.155 which works, but I’m not sure it fully supports the new CPU in the laptop (mainly the power management).

See Redirecting…. Should be something like "sudo qubes-dom0-update kernel-latest". Might also want kernel-latest-qubes-vm.

EXAMPLE:

sudo qubes-dom0-update kernel-latest-1000:5.9.14-1.qubes.x86_64
--enablerepo=qubes-dom0-unstable

simply change numbers to your wanted kernel version.

if you only have the main qubes repo enabled, running qubes-dom0-update kernel-latest should install v5.8.16. 5.9 and upcoming 5.10 builds can be found in current-testing, though the latter has yet to land.
