From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I am currently running Debian 12 with Gnome using the 6.6.9-amd64 kernel, and have had quite the issues with the newer kernels. Once i switch to them in the grub menu, I am only able to use a single monitor which has been set to a sub-normal resolution. Also animations for the DE are all gone. I can't add my other monitors in, my nvidia settings panel lost most of its settings (from about 20 tabs to 3) and the entire system runs really poorly. While part of this seems to be an nvidia thing, I do wonder how I would actually go about fixing this.
