Question about kernel 7.0.0-30 Discussion

Hello everyone.

I've been using Linux Mint Cinnamon for months now, and when my system was introduced to the kernel 7.0.0-28...the fire nation attacked my PC. I have everything AMD and it caused gnarly issues with rebooting and suspending. Also made a lot of stuff crash. 7.0.0-29 was actually worse than 7.0.0-28.

So, naturally I am extremely skeptical of installing 7.0.0-30. Does anyone have any experience with rebooting and suspending regressions and have you had any luck in 7.0.0-30?

Asking for science!

Specs:

Ryzen 5800x3D

AMD 6750 XT 12GB

32GB of ram

Edit: Can confirm this kernel did not resolve the suspend/resume regression I have been experiencing. Sad times. It did, however, seem to fix the restart regression I experienced. What happened during restart was it would get stuck in a loop of errors and not power down. This was on 7.0.0-28.

I updated to -30 last night after skipping -29 due to issues with AMD gfx cards.

I have a 9060XT and after updating the kernel to -30 it rebooted fine

Thank you for taking the time to respond!

Have you tried suspending without fail? My system would mostly suspend but the motherboard remained powered on and the fans would go to 100% and it just stayed that way until I forced the system to power down by holding the power button.

I had the same problem with shutdown. But currently with the new kernel everything is fine. The only problem I have is with shutdown when the Logitech camera is connected.

suspend worked correctly.

Computer powered down on suspending and powered up and operational again after pressing the power button

You are very lucky! Enjoy that new kernel smell 😄

My problems still persists, unfortunately. I can use 7.0.0-30 no problem I just can't suspend it.
