Gentle reader, I did - as a matter of course - reboot my machine before and after each installation respective deinstallation of drm-kmp-default. The malfunction is clearly an effect of a race condition. I am using fvwm2/xdm, very well established, definitely non-"cool" pieces of software consuming a very little amount of system resources. The main "fat" application is a Mozilla Firefox, which runs several JavaScript based system monitoring tools (Icinga, code produced by High Energy Physicists) and consumes a lot of memory. The login prompt of xdm was garbled (blank) after the initial system startup reliably, after a "systemctl restart display-manager" after the completion of the boot process, from a text console or via xrdp it showed not defects. The system went into trashing - I was able to monitor this by a thin client on xrdp - during movement of windows, e.g. xterm, implying directly handled memory transfer under drm. The locally connected keyboard and mouse were disabled, too. Killing the local X server (from the xrdp session) helped several times, while the xrdp server did not cause problems.

Possibly a bug that was already fixed in the upcoming update, or possibly a still remaining issue.
Please check drm-kmp update at

You'd need to uninstall drm-kmp-default at first, then install it again. It's a known problem of the conflicts with the same version.
I also had similar problem in DELL laptop with integrated Intel i5-4300M GPU (4th Generation, Haswell). This update for me fixed issues related with i915: desktop no longer hang, KDE Plasma no longer notifies about graphics reset, no longer so often opens DrKonqi for Plasma crash or various other components, desktop no longer restarts at high usage of computer. Note, I needed to restart computer to make effect of updated drm-kmp-default (just update in running system did not changed situation). Thanks!
