From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Nice. Also it occurred to me that there might be a way to set that quirk through the kernel command line instead of having to compile a patched kernel. I haven't had a chance to look it up though.
Edit: I couldn't find anything obvious. This behaviour is buried pretty deep.
Either way, this did it! Thank you so much!
That's great. If you get a chance, would you be able to test this patch?
I'd like to try to get it upstream, and that seems like the sanest way to do it.
You might need to be on linux 6.5+ for this patch to apply, and if you could verify that it's still broken on 6.6 without the patch, that would be nice.
I did try kernel 6.6 without either patch before installing the new one, and I can confirm that the issue was still present on that version.
With the new patch though (after adding a comma to the end of each .ident string), everything is working as expected.

FYI, I think the fix will make it into 6.8.
Exciting! Thank you so much for your help mate, it's very much appreciated.
That's great. Thanks!
