[gentoo-user] gentoo-sources 5.15.151 breaks amdgpu support?

2024-03-11 Thread Grant Edwards
I upgraded gentoo-sources from 5.15.147 to 5.15.151 this morning and amdgpu support is now borked on my system with an AMD Ryzen 5 3400G with Radeon Vega Graphics. Everything worked fine with 5.15.147, but when 5.15.151 (built with same .config via "make oldconfig") boots there's always a kernel

Hi, Is there a specific reason why the keywords (apart from hppa) have been removed from gentoo-sources-5.15.59? I am seeing some issues with systems running this version, but not all. And as this is recent, I don't have an older kernel to quickly fall back to. Currently working on testing
