After an update a month or more ago, I think when the the switch to the 6.2 kernel series occurred, I stopped being able to boot my system, an Inspiron 7610. I get the boot menu, then the loading splash screen, then a blank screen (apart from a KDFONTOP message or similar). I can boot an LTS kernel, and that is what I'm using now. Unfortunately, I can't post a garuda-inxi of the failed system as I can't access it. The data for my working system is below. I haven't found any similar references, which is surprising, but does anyone have any ideas? I have tried with both the latest zen kernel and a recent vanilla kernel with the same result.
The boot parameters for the problem boot and the current system appear to be the same.
