The particular error caused stuttering and sometimes failure of ...

You can also pass the modeset or no modeset parameter on the GRUB command line at boot without those conf files--I'd try removing or renaming them both, then try a palin reboot to see if that works, but then try them at boot if they don't.

Did you reboot after remaster? Clone running live system tends to get misinterpret as it will not clone persistence files, but linuxfs and surrounding boot-files only.

I would remove the kernel before trying to install any new drivers.

Thank you and I forgot to unhold the image and headers packages; removing the hold the purge command sequence worked.

sudo apt purge linux-image-6.12.8-1-liquorix-amd64 linux-headers-6.12.8-1-liquorix-amd64


this should also remove the auto-updates metapackages.

I think there is a 565 driver that does build on 6.12. I don't know if it works, but it does build.


Thanks dolphin_oracle !

It seems that ...

I know that 6.12 is not going to work for my card for now (4070 Super) and I wrote about it here: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?p=802663#p802663

I also read Oracle's notice on 6.12 coming to ahs as well: https://mxlinux.org/blog/6-12-kernel-rollout-is-not-without-issues-with-nvidia ...
