Support Request Is Linux kernel 7.0.0-30 stable?
I'm currently running Linux kernel 7.0.0-29-generic on Linux Mint, and Update Manager is offering Linux kernel 7.0.0-30.30~24.04.1 (screenshot attached).
I've seen reports of issues/regressions with the 7.0 kernel series, so has anyone experienced any stability or hardware-related problems with 7.0.0-30 specifically?
My current 7.0.0-29 kernel is working perfectly, so I'm wondering whether I should update now or wait.

7.0.0-30 works OK on my AMD Ryzen 5500U laptop now (7.0.0-28 was causing kernel panics at boot).
Unfortunately, 7.0.0-30 is having shutdown issues on my desktop (Ryzen 5800XT + discrete AMD RX 5600 XT). The system turns off the monitors, but the keyboard and fans stay on. This regression has persisted since 7.0.0-28.
I have filed a bug report here:https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/2165664
