OK mga8-64, i7, plasma, nvidia-current...

Hardware: My workstation "svarten": Mainboard: Sabertooth P67, CPU: i7-3770, RAM 16G, GM107 [GeForce GTX 750] using nvidia-current; GeForce 635 series and later, 4k display.  Disk&Filesystem: SSD with /boot/EFI and ext4 /boot, LUKS{LVM {swap, ext4 /home & / } and a spinner at /mnt/spinner

Was running 5.14.14-desktop-1, also have 5.10.75-desktop-1.

dkms status tells me nvidia-current is OK, and BOINC detects CUDA and OpenCL

Tests: Plasma desktop, using Thunderbird, LibreOffice, Ktorrent, Nextcloud client, Firefox ESR, flatpak update, flatpak Firefox...
Stress test: While working with other things BOINC use all cores to 100%, videos do not stutter in Chromium, nor Firefox ESR but do in flatpak version.

OK Adding testing with VirtualBox 

Was testing 5.10.78-desktop-1, now again changing to
- cpupower-5.14.17-1.mga8.x86_64
- kernel-userspace-headers-5.14.17-1.mga8.x86_64
(I dont know if it is important to match)
and rebooted to kernel 5.14.17 now, and:

VirtualBox: Launched my usual MSW7pro-64, tests OK: bidirectional clipboard, shared folders write protected and not, USB2 memory stick read&write (using upstream extension pack), drag file from Dolphin to Windows Explorer, video playing in Firefox.

Dell Inspiron 5100, 32-bit P4, Radeon RV200 graphics, Atheros wifi, 32-bit Xfce system using the desktop kernel.

No installation issues, and after the reboot, no regressions noted.

HP Probook 6550b, i3, Intel graphics, Intel wifi, MGA8-64 Plasma. No installation issues. No regressions noted, either.

AMD Phenom II X4, AMD HD 8490 graphics, Atheros wifi, 64-bit Plasma system.

No installation issues. VirtualBox modules were built during installation, and apparently installed without incident. During the reboot, a message appeared that the rtl8192eu module(s) were being built. This seemed to take a rather long time - several minutes - but the boot eventually completed. 

After the rebot, checked operation of the rtl8192eu driver, which was OK. VirtualBox, Firefox, VLC, all functioning normally.

The rtl8192eu driver used in the Comment 5 test was the one from Bug 28795.

AMD x3-450, Nvidia 390 driver
