Do y'all only have one kernel installed?
Yes. If I ever need something else because something unforeseen happened (which has not happened for years, and I use a non-default one), I can boot up from a live USB and fix things.
I use arch btw.
I also use Arch btw. I have an lts kernel installed just in case. Came in handy when the amdgpu driver was broken for a week. The screen was flashing on Wayland.
Which LTS kernel do you have installed? I'm shopping around
On Arch it's just linux-lts I think. 6.12 is the current version I believe. In any case, I only need to use it when something breaks which is rare.
vmlinuz vmlinuz.old vmlinuz.old.old vmlinuz.old.old.old vmlinuz.borken
I'm sure one of these boots and has a Nvidia module that matches user space!
