Hi Paul,

Thanks for verifying that linux-nvidia kernel, but for the future, you don't need to worry about verifying each and every kernel series. These days, the kernel team maintains over 100 kernel variants, and it is simply impossible to check them all.

We just check the primary ones, e.g. 5.19 in kinetic, and then when they are made into their specific derivative kernels, e.g. 5.19 linux-nvidia, they contain all the patches from the primary kernel, plus some specific patches to enable whatever hardware the derivative kernel is for.

So, don't worry if there are any more from other odd kernel combinations, I will let you know if we need to do any more testing.

In other news, looking at https://kernel.ubuntu.com/, we should be on track for a release to -updates early next week, so look forward to that and getting this bug fixed for everyone.

Thanks,
Matthew
