since i have a 13700kf i went ahead and pulled linux-mainline for the aur to try out 6.6rc1. so far nothing crashing. played a fair amount of world of warcraft classic - hardcore server.
edit:
just noticed the battery life of my logitech pro x wireless mouse is now shown in gnome's power setting page in settings since upgrading to kernel 6.6rc1! that was a nice surprise. https://i.imgur.com/7Eej1A8.png

So, is there some way to disable this "EEVDF Scheduler"? This BS is turning my linux UI to lag-fest, putting every application I actually want to use to nice19 ffs, making it complete torture to use.
