I also got a message saying something like "unable to load firmware for rocksomething" in my old install using Gnome. I reinstalled xfce and that message is gone but starting X still does not work.

It's not just X11. This is true of my two installs of Debian with Wayland. One was working great for a couple of weeks, and a recent update blew this. No GDM3. I have a working SD on Buster, but there's no Plymouth and I get the firmware failure messages.

these issues sound really annoying. I have zero issues with kernel 5.5, mesa-git, and sway-git... it actually works very well. is anyone else using this setup?
A bunch of mesa/gl packages updated in Bullseye today, and everything is back to "normal".

This is my speediest, and otherwise most reliable installation with Gnome3, with the original @danielt installer. I'm sticking with it on nVME, and keeping a parallel test instance on SD, to test changes with u-boot/mesa/etc.
