The most recent upgrade of glibc (version 2.42 according to rpm -qa --last) fixed my issue with the graphics card. I have had problems with my graphics card for ages. It is an archaic Nvidia GeForce 710M, resetting the laptop when starting up the graphical login process or after running for a few minutes. The startup logs say it's some ACPI power management bug and my Lenovo laptop are known for having some ACPI issues on their laptop motherboard. The display manager works fine. It would start, show me the login screen and after entering my password and starting up, it would reset the laptop and I'd be looking at a bootup screen again.
However, it only affects the main (and more bloated) graphical environments, KDE and Gnome. I'd have use a lighter Window Manager, like IceWM. It would start ok and I'd be able to open terminals for work or use the applications as normal. Gemini says it some kernel-related issue and suggested some parameters to pass to the kernel during the Grub stage about ACPI backlight management and disabling Compositing, which it wasn't enabled.
Right now it works ok and I'm happy. A period like that happened a few months ago and an update broke it again. This was before the big update to Mageia 10. I'm sure it'll come back again and I'm back to Fluxbox.
