Upgraded from linux (4.11.9-1 => 4.12.3-1).
Booted ok Logged in ok Plasma started ok Logged into password manager (get password for wifi) ok Started wifi Network ok Started terminal ok Started Dolphin ok Start any other GUI app and the screen crashes (monochrome red with pixels). Can see mouse move in background but cannot start any further apps. Hard boot is the only way to repeat the above sequence. Resized terminal and the screen crashes as above. Conclusion: I downgraded linux (4.12.9-1 => 4.11.3-1) and everything works as normal (and added 'IgnorePkg = linux' to pacman.conf). Notes: GPU driver used = Nouveau |
This task depends upon

I cannot reproduce the issue. Is it still valid?
