HI!
On an old laptop running Tumbleweed there were crashes in DRM module making all things only working *very* slow. There have been postings here and some tickets quite a while ago but issues were never resolved.
With Leap 15 until kernel 4.12.14-lp150.5 everything worked smoothly on Leap 15 and using XFCE. With the DRM patches installed with 4.12.14-lp150.6 same problems now appear in Leap 15.
Can I disable this new DRM stuff with a kernel switch at boot time? I'd still like to
