I was reticent to install some random ppa. But since compiling it myself would be some adventure. I removed my personal stuff and other data, changed passwords and then installed the kisak ppa.
And it seems to work without issue. Just as well as in 20.04.5. The current version in the ppa is 21.3.6. I have no idea what was broken in 21.2.6. Was there really a need for messing with r300 drivers? dmesg shows neither errors or weird warnings about mesa. Everything seems ok. Only thing I don't know what else might have been installed from that ppa. Yes I'm a little paranoid. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to mesa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1958242 Title: mesa update freeze/crash screen before login Status in mesa package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: After updating my laptop after a long trip.

See https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sddm/+bug/1909171 for details on that. But the actual problem seems somewhat different this time.
