LMDE Kernel update Aggravation

[Brickwizard]

In the last 4 days I have had 2 Kernel updates from Mint, installed them to the desktop fine, all's well,
However, on my old Del lappy I have had to roll back to last week's Kernel, on both occasions the Dell refused to shut down with the latest Kernel updates

Which kernel?

Following a bumpy weekend due to the EXT4 data corruption bug, Linux 6.6.6 is out with just a sole change for dealing with another headache: WiFi regressions.

Linux 6.6.6 is out and its only change over Linux 6.6.5 released just a few days ago is reverting the patch "wifi: cfg80211: fix CQM for non-range use." That patch ended up regressing Linux wireless support with deadlocks in the IWD wireless daemon hangs on shutdown, and related issues with user-space network managers breaking.

Which kernel?

LMDE is a few behind, yesterdays [which as I said is working on this office desktop] is 6.1.0-15-amd64

There are problems reported for kernel 6.1.0-15-amd64 here: https://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php?p=789043, evidently not resolved at this time.

I am running LM21.2 on Kernel 5.15.0-91 with no dramas whatsoever.

LMDE 6....I have given up on for the time being. Too many 'slightly weird' problems there. Whether they are kernel related I have no idea, and dont have the time nor the motivation to find out.

just finished removing and updating grub hopefully back to normal
