Now (with r339186) it seems that drm-next-kmod is the only usable option.

However, I'm sorry to say:

- it does feel regressive, compared to working without drm-next-kmod with 
earlier versions of -CURRENT.

I can no longer find a way to reliably suspend (sleep) the notebook.

At the time of writing my part-working configuration is as outlined below.

However – frustratingly – for a while, an hour or so ago, it seemed as if the 
same configuration was useless; after a point, the screen would go blank (grey) 
and things would progress no further e.g. no login manager (sddm); no response 
to Control-Alt-F2; no response to Control-Alt-Delete. The apparent 
unpredictability leading to a dead-end situation has created a sense of unease; 
now I'm genuinely afraid to test suspend :-(


For reference
– working at the moment with UEFI, without CSM
