It's just temporary fix, I think Ubuntu is already working on a backport. But OpenSUSE Tumbleweed is rolling distro so I'm just going to wait till they release 5.11 as stable. It would take about 5 months or so I think(at the best case).
It won't take that long. The upstream 5.11 will be released in two or three weeks, then we'll switch immediately to 5.11 for TW. It might take some more days until the update kernel reaches to TW snapshot, but not definitely for a month.
You can use the kernel in OBS Kernel:HEAD repo if you'd like before the actual release. It's still in RC, but it works mostly well at the late RC, from my experience (I've been using 5.11-rc on my own machine, too :)
That said, I have no plan to merge those fixes into TW stable kernel since a nice workaround exists. If something else is urgently needed, let me know.
Good to hear that the new kernel will be release sooner. I have tried using the Kernel:HEAD repo before, but the nVidia driver is still not in the KMP folder. Since I need the nVidia driver to connect the external monitor I can't use the rc kernels for now. Unless someone know how to make AMD iGPU use the HDMI output. Thanks for the update and the work-around. At least I can use the touchpad in a pinch even if it is not as good as it should be. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
