I noticed that many users on Reddit, including myself, have encountered issues with drm-kmod without finding a clear solution. Initially, I considered placing this tip at the end of the handbook as is traditionally done. However, resolving the issue typically requires users to boot into single-user mode, mount the filesystem, and then comment out or remove drm-kmod before reinstalling a compatible version. In multi-user mode, the system becomes unworkable with drm-kmod enabled, which can be especially challenging for new users. To help alleviate this difficulty, I have placed the tip before the AMD section, even though it applies to all graphics cards. This adjustment should make troubleshooting more accessible. Feedback or corrections are welcome, as this is my first commit.
