@Chris - understood. Per my most recent message, running apport-collect triggers the following warning:
"It appears you are currently running a mainline kernel. It would be better to report this bug upstream at http://bugzilla.kernel.org/ so that the upstream kernel developers are aware of the issue. If you'd still like to file a bug against the Ubuntu kernel, please boot with an official Ubuntu kernel and re-file." Excuse my noob status, but what should I therefore do? I honestly thought that by running a kernel installed from https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v5.14.21/ I would be running an Ubuntu kernel.

However whenever I try to upgrade to either the 5.15 or 5.16 series my VM hangs at boot time after: EFI stub: Booting Linux Kernel... EFI stub: EFI_RNG_PROTOCOL unavailable EFI stub: ERROR: FIRMWARE BUG: kernel image not aligned on 64k boundary EFI stub: ERROR: FIRMWARE BUG: Image BSS overlaps adjacent EFI memory region EFI stub: Using DIB from configuration table EFI stub: Exiting boot services... I see the same "hang" for both 5.15.7 and 5.16-rc4. FYI this has also been reported by others who note that the problem appears to be specific to Ubuntu: https://communities.vmware.com/t5/Fusion-for-Apple-Silicon- Tech/Anyone-have-any-luck-with-Ubuntu-5-15-kernels/m-p/2880362 Given that I can't boot using the 5.15.7 and 5.16-rc4 kernels, I can't provide the output from: cat /proc/version However I attach the output from lspci. Please let me know what other information I can provide to help diagnose this issue.
