   The preliminary indication I'm getting, is the graphics support   
   changed in the more recent kernel, and some older stuff isn't   
   supported quite the same.   
      
   There seems to be no driver for my HD 6450 (AMD). Or for the graphics   
   in the Q45 Northbridge (i915 driver normally used).   
      
   This is a Linux Mint that happens to work properly. 5.15 kernel.   
   Testing on crusty video card. Works.
