are you guys skipping 6.8.2 due to the regression?
please don't skip the nice 6.9 kernel though
there was no updates in last week. I'm sure the team is working hard on the cosmic de and other refinements.

Pop!_OS fork of https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux - Linux 6.8.0 jammy by mmstick · Pull Request #301 · pop-os/linux
apps available to try with this method are:
cosmic-edit
cosmic-files
cosmic-term
-
install virt-manager
-
create a vm pop-os
-
start the vm
-
sudo apt install cosmic-session -
sudo nano /etc/gdm3/custom.conf -
... set ..
WaylandEnable=true -
reboot
-
at the log in screen, there is a small gear wheel on the bottom right side, choose “Pop on Wayland" (edit: if you want COSMIC DE to work too, see update below) (edit2: if you can't see the gear wheel, see update2 below)
.
update:
there are some settings on the virt-manager to make COSMIC DE works.
if you don't need to run COSMIC DE, can ignore the following
- Display Spice : Type = Spice server, Listen type = none, uncheck password / opengl
- Video : use QXL (instead of default Virtio)
new step 8. at the log in screen, there is a small gear wheel on the bottom right side, choose “COSMIC"
.
update2:
-
sudo nano /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/61-gdm.rules -
Goto the line that reads
LABEL="gdm_prefer_xorg" -
.. commend out the next line ..
#RUN+="/usr/libexec/gdm-runtime-config set daemon PreferredDisplayServer xorg" -
Goto the the line that reads
LABEL="gdm_disable_wayland" -
.. commend out the next line ..
#RUN+="/usr/libexec/gdm-runtime-config set daemon WaylandEnable false" -
sudo systemctl restart gdm.service
The base Ubuntu 24.04 LTS shipping with Linux kernel 6.8 is anticipated for release on April 25th, 2024.
Sometimes when resuming from sleep, or when playing a fullscreen video, my screen will fill with white video blocks.
rebooting will fix the problem (until it appears again).
$ uname -r 6.6.6-76060606-generic
Similar to this: https://i.bke.ro/selif/artifacts.mp4 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Xt2e9Lt2gg
and issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/2735
One solution is to add amdgpu.sg_display=0
sudo kernelstub -a "amdgpu.sg_display=0"
