Debian Sid Log

My gut feeling is Sid is very stable and it's the packages "on top" like KDE that are buggy. This is a log of any package issues I have.

Couldn't finish the kernel so a reboot fails, booting the previous 6.9 kernel

dpkg: error processing package linux-image-amd64 (--configure):

Hard lock after quite a few days uptime and not restarting between apt updates. On restart the boot partition was not found and due to encyption I couldn't be fucked and reinstalled.

Updated to kernel 6.12.3 and got a weird 100% peg on the first core. Made everything super laggy.

Rebooted into 6.11.10 and everything was fine again.

Aww same disk issue as on the 1st, when trying to save state in virtual box for the first time she hardlocked and on reboot errored with failed to start systemd-fsck dependancy failed for boot.mount

Reinstalled with secure boot turned on, no encrypted drives and a swap partition (!)

Kernel bug seems to have been resolved as well.

Same 100% on one cpu core issue on a newer 6.12.5.

I removed the intel_iommu=on iommu=pt from /etc/default/grub and that seems to sort the issue. !

Fonts can be fuzzy until hover in Firefox, seemingly only in the Shopify admin frame.

I tried Mono / Propos etc no to effect.

Now on 6.12.8 and I was getting kernel errors "dma read no_pasid pte read access is not set" so tried turning intel_iommu on. That didnt remove the errors so I just turned off the virtual stuff in the bios.
