I, too, did encounter problems with 4.12 (vanilla from kernel.org). I have a PC with radeon driver and a laptop with intel graphcis. I always do make oldconfig when building a new kernel version. But with 4.12, both those machines stopped working, they hung at boot, I think when switching graphics mode. Finally I found the time and reconfigured my kernel from scratch on the laptop, which eventually made it work again. The big PC is still waiting for its turn and running on 4.10 for the time being. -- Gruß | Greetings | Qapla’ Please do not share anything from, with or about me on any social network. I have seen things you lusers would not believe. I've seen Sun monitors on fire off the side of the multimedia lab. I've seen NTU lights glitter in the dark near the Mail Gate. All these things will be lost in time, like the root partition last week. Time to die.
