That right, it isn't STABLE. I stated that in one of my previous emails:

12.1-RELEASE-p3 but that might take a while so preferably would like to 
try what's possible before embarking on that adventure.

I followed on your previous advice to recompile world and GENERIC kernel 
instead of using my custom VENUS kernel. Trying with STABLE instead was 
a separate thread. I understood those are alternatives. Is it expected 
that drm doesn't work on 12.1-RELEASE even if the kernel and packages 
are compiled from sources?

I remember being able to load amdgpu.ko on 12.0-RELEASE. Why this no 
longer works? Is 12.1-RELEASE expected to work again at some point, 
maybe with p4?
