linux kernel 6.1.0.15 causing crashes in mx linux 23.1 flagship Xfce edition?

[SimplyFojin]

Recently I updated mx linux 23.1 , after I rebooted and logged in with my username, it crashes. So when I waited awhile after I did a cold shut down of my computer and rebooted, I selected a older kerel version 6.1.0.13. So far haven't had issues.

Has anyone else had this problem recently? Does this have to do with the bigger updates in the past 2 days?

What I dont understand is that so far 6.1.0-14 is working for me, but 6.1.0-15 doesnt.

[dolphin_oracle]

login seems to be OK. I'm running the kernel now.

Is that all I have to do, try to log in?

Makes me thinking next time I reboot my computer is just go into 6.1.0.13 instead. I wonder if its still a risk for me to continue using 6.1.0.14.

the risk was apparently ext4 file system corruption. I don' t know how likely that is.

could you have an incomplete update?
