    The 6.12 kernel UHD630 graphics worked when not compiled for realtime but just voluntary preemption. So I have filed Bug 219510. I suspect the kernel team will refer me to Intel since they actually maintain this driver, then Intel will say well it worked when the kernel people didn’t hack it for real time and it will end up going nowhere but time will tell. Without a working display, I can’t really test KVM/QEMU so will have to wait for action on this bug.

      As I expected, it got bounced over to Intel and the basic response was it’s not ready yet.
