Documented here so others will find the work-around.\n\nMaybe this image could be updated to include a workaround until fixed?  Maybe a one time system unit file that unloads and reloads driver at end of boot sequence?\n\n","author":{"url":"https://github.com/Jibun-no-Kage","@type":"Person","name":"Jibun-no-Kage"},"datePublished":"2025-02-05T19:12:33.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":6},"url":"https://github.com/2/images/issues/2"}
