[Bug 2036452] Re: Update of libc6 packages breaks graphics driver intel-i915-dkms

[Jianshui Yu]

Which platform are you using?
I installed the Ubuntu 22.04 and update to the latest packages via "sudo apt upgrade", the ARC GPU are running well already. and based on my understanding, Ubuntu22.04.6 already support ARC GPU and no need to install extra packages. if you need the latest drivers released from intel, only mesa/neo/media drivers are good enough, no need to install intel-i915-dkms.
It will only take issues if any new kernel API coming and intel-i915-dkms will support the new kernel several months later.
