Can you tell us why? Will the eldrich horror pictured come into your home? Be present with you from that point onward? Cursed kernel? Kursnel?

Oh crap, I thought an up-close picture of a broken monitor would be fun, but it replaced the link :D

People with dual GPUs should also avoid updating. I thought my AMD CPU/Nvidia GPU laptop would be fine but everything that's rendering on the integrated gpu is flickering randomly. Guess I'm waiting for the next update.

Edit: Seems to be fixed, feel free to update now.

According to your link, it was fixed 19h ago in 7.3.0-3. Did the fix not work?

Still had the warning from pacman show up when I posted this. But the CachyOS-provided kernel I’m on is “linux-cachyos-rt-bore” (realtime kernel, using it for low-latency audio work) while my regular kernel (basically there as a fallback option) is vanilla Arch and still on 7.2.11. I assume the realtime kernel will get the fix later.

Broken broken or just glitching?

Mod removed my comment, for those wondering it was calling out 7.x for being slop, in meme format.

Rightfully so. Just saying "AI slop" reflexively is bot-like behavior.

It wasn't removed because I called out slop, sorry not sorry to burst your ai bubble.
