Also, in general, the Leap kernel is built in kABI compatible way, so you can copy the old kernel module into the new kernel (in most cases). e.g. # mkdir -p /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.84-default/updates # cp /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.81-default/kernel/dvb-core/dvb-core.ko \ /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.84-default/updates # depmod This will override dvb-core module on the new kernel with the older code. Try reboot and retest after that to verify whether the problem persists. Similarly, you can try to swap a module one by one and identify which module has influence. For removing the override, just remove the module from */updates directory, then run depmod. # rm /lib/modules/5.3.18-lp152.84-default/updates/dvb-core.ko # depmod
