mga9-64 on Acer Aspire A717-71G

FAIL:
Flatpak Chromium causes coredumps mentioning nouveau when it tries to start, never gets its window up. I guess it tries to figure out graphics capabilities. See related problems on desktop kernel Bug 34023 Comment 50. I have not tried earlier linus kernels on this system.
Differently to desktop kernel problem with inxi -G, the system can suspend etc here OK after hitting this problem.

OK:
Plasma X11, Dolphin, Libreoffice...
wifi, nextcloud-client Appimage
Firefox video over internet
Okular printing to boomaga
Flatpak Spotify and Zoom (only checked they launch, did not log in)
suspend-resume
hibernate-restore

Strangely, on that Aspire, with kernel-desktop-6.6.79-1, Flatpak Chromium works.
Comment 10 Morgan Leijström 2025-02-23 01:42:00 CET
OK i586 on Thinkpad T43

Simple formatting ext4 / and /home partitions, and swap on rust drive.

LXDE, wifi, Firefox listening to POD on internet and writing this
