Description Kåre Løvgren 2023-01-05 20:39:14 UTC
1. Please describe the problem:
Upgraded to the 6.0.16 kernel (through the "software" app) and rebooted. I can log in, but if I try to start anything (Start key plus a letter on the keyboard or mouse click on e.g. "Files"), the system freezes. I have now rebooted on 6.0.15 where things work like they should.
There's no entries in the Problem Reporter.

2. What is the Version-Release number of the kernel:
6.0.16-200.fc36.x86_64

3. Did it work previously in Fedora? If so, what kernel version did the issue
   *first* appear?  Old kernels are available for download at
   https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=8 :
Yes, as stated above. Earlier kernels had no issues.


4. Can you reproduce this issue? If so, please provide the steps to reproduce
   the issue below:
Yes, always: Reboot and try to start any program.

5. Does this problem occur with the latest Rawhide kernel? To install the
   Rawhide kernel, run ``sudo dnf install fedora-repos-rawhide`` followed by
   ``sudo dnf update --enablerepo=rawhide kernel``:
?

6. Are you running any modules that not shipped with directly Fedora's kernel?:
AFAIK, no (everything is installed with "Software" or with Dnfdragora.

7. Please attach the kernel logs. You can get the complete kernel log
   for a boot with ``journalctl --no-hostname -k > dmesg.txt``. If the
   issue occurred on a previous boot, use the journalctl ``-b`` flag.
'jounalctl --list-boots' only shows the ID of the current boot?

Update:
Today, I installed an update to the 6.0.18 kernel (after increasing the number of old kernels to keep, to avoid losing the old, working ones!). It looks like the problem only affects the .16, as I am now writing this comment on .18.

This message is a reminder that Fedora Linux 36 is nearing its end of life.
Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora Linux 36 on 2023-05-16.
It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer
maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as EOL if it remains open with a
'version' of '36'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora Linux version. Note that the version field may be hidden.
Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see it.

Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we were not 
able to fix it before Fedora Linux 36 is end of life. If you would still like 
to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version 
of Fedora Linux, you are encouraged to change the 'version' to a later version
prior to this bug being closed.

Fedora Linux 36 entered end-of-life (EOL) status on 2023-05-16.

Fedora Linux 36 is no longer maintained, which means that it
will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we
are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora Linux
please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Note that the version
field may be hidden. Click the "Show advanced fields" button if you do not see
the version field.

If you are unable to reopen this bug, please file a new report against an
active release.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
