On your login screen there should be an icon to click that allows you to select a different session type. If you have enabled auto-login, then you'll have to first log out without rebooting to reach the login screen. You should be able to switch Plasma from Wayland to X11 or vice versa, so try it. You should also be able to switch to IceWM instead of Plasma. Try that too. If IceWM is missing from the menu, do Ctrl-Alt-F3, login as root, then do zypper in icewm. Upon X restart or reboot, IceWM should appear as a selection. Do these changes have any impact on the problem?

If none of above is helpful, while not logged into a Plasma session, try removing all content from ~/.cache/ before logging into Plasma again. If that is not helpful, try creating a new user for testing, then perform the same tests. You can create a new user via another Ctrl-Alt-F3 root login using yast users after logging in.

To get back to the GUI after a Ctrl-Alt-Fn switch for running commands, try Alt-F7, Alt-F2 or Alt-F1.

Before reading further, have you tried all that I suggested in comment #17? If not, skip this until after you have.

Too much information going into logs can tie up a PC in short order, which a misconfiguration or bug can cause. These logs are accessed through dmesg, and the journal. If this is the cause, adding kernel command line option pci=noaer appended to the end of the linu line after striking the E key at the Grub menu may serve as a workaround. Simply dmesg | less will let you browse the kernel log. dmesg | grep aile will return any lines in the log that contain the strings "failed", "Failing" or "failure", which would be clues to your problem. If persistent journal is enabled, which it is if /var/log/journal/ exists, journalctl -b -2 --no-hostname would allow you to browse the journal from the second previous boot, looking for clues in similar manner to dmesg | less. journalctl -b | grep aile would present failures listed in the current boot even if persistent journal is not enabled. Excessive messages going into the logs make themselves apparent by their sheer number, usually many repeats, resulting in huge logs. dmesg | wc -l will report how many lines are in the current log. I just did that here. In 53 hours of uptime with no problems apparent, there are 953 lines. journal -b | wc -l will produce line count for journal on current boot. A 4 digit line count shortly after a boot could mean log spam and a problem, and 5 or more digits certainly would.

There have been many threads about trouble with Iris Xe Graphics. Some may be solved via cmdline options. Since I don't have Iris Xe, I'm not familiar with why any specific one may be needed. This is a list of some you may try from kernel documentation:

Code:

	intel_iommu=	[DMAR] Intel IOMMU driver (DMAR) option
		on
			Enable intel iommu driver.
		off
			Disable intel iommu driver.
		igfx_off [Default Off]
			By default, gfx is mapped as normal device. If a gfx
			device has a dedicated DMAR unit, the DMAR unit is
			bypassed by not enabling DMAR with this option. In
			this case, gfx device will use physical address for
			DMA.
		strict [Default Off]
			Deprecated, equivalent to iommu.strict=1.
		sp_off [Default Off]
			By default, super page will be supported if Intel IOMMU
			has the capability. With this option, super page will
			not be supported.
		sm_on
			Enable the Intel IOMMU scalable mode if the hardware
			advertises that it has support for the scalable mode
			translation.
		sm_off
			Disallow use of the Intel IOMMU scalable mode.
		tboot_noforce [Default Off]
			Do not force the Intel IOMMU enabled under tboot.
			By default, tboot will force Intel IOMMU on, which
			could harm performance of some high-throughput
			devices like 40GBit network cards, even if identity
			mapping is enabled.
			Note that using this option lowers the security
			provided by tboot because it makes the system
			vulnerable to DMA attacks.

	intel_idle.max_cstate=	[KNL,HW,ACPI,X86]
			0	disables intel_idle and fall back on acpi_idle.
			1 to 9	specify maximum depth of C-state.

	intel_pstate=	[X86]
			disable
			  Do not enable intel_pstate as the default
			  scaling driver for the supported processors
                        active
                          Use intel_pstate driver to bypass the scaling
                          governors layer of cpufreq and provides it own
                          algorithms for p-state selection. There are two
                          P-state selection algorithms provided by
                          intel_pstate in the active mode: powersave and
                          performance.  The way they both operate depends
                          on whether or not the hardware managed P-states
                          (HWP) feature has been enabled in the processor
                          and possibly on the processor model.
			passive
			  Use intel_pstate as a scaling driver, but configure it
			  to work with generic cpufreq governors (instead of
			  enabling its internal governor).  This mode cannot be
			  used along with the hardware-managed P-states (HWP)
			  feature.
			force
			  Enable intel_pstate on systems that prohibit it by default
			  in favor of acpi-cpufreq. Forcing the intel_pstate driver
			  instead of acpi-cpufreq may disable platform features, such
			  as thermal controls and power capping, that rely on ACPI
			  P-States information being indicated to OSPM and therefore
			  should be used with caution. This option does not work with
			  processors that aren't supported by the intel_pstate driver
			  or on platforms that use pcc-cpufreq instead of acpi-cpufreq.
			no_hwp
			  Do not enable hardware P state control (HWP)
			  if available.
			hwp_only
			  Only load intel_pstate on systems which support
			  hardware P state control (HWP) if available.
			support_acpi_ppc
			  Enforce ACPI _PPC performance limits. If the Fixed ACPI
			  Description Table, specifies preferred power management
			  profile as "Enterprise Server" or "Performance Server",
			  then this feature is turned on by default.
			per_cpu_perf_limits
			  Allow per-logical-CPU P-State performance control limits using
			  cpufreq sysfs interface

There are probably others. Pending finding a specific fix for your exact 8086:9a49, I think I'd try intel_iommu=on first and iommu=pt next, after which both together. If none of those work, I'd go next with intel_iommu=igfx_off, and if that didn't work, I might switch to doing more Googling.

Asking on the Intel developers mailing list might get a better or faster response. intel-gfx@lists.freedesktop.org

Ubuntu 23.10 is the newest of the distros you have listed. If you're happy with 23.10, keep it. If not, there are others of recent vintage available, and others coming along. Ubuntu will have the latest LTS version in April. Leap 15.6 is available now in alpha, will be beta in February, and released in May or June. Fedora 39 was released shortly after 23.10. Debian stable Bookworm went to v12.4 less than 3 weeks ago. Mageia 9 was released in late August. All I just listed I have installed here, except for 23.10, but I do have 22.04, and alpha 24.04.

Debian and its derivatives disable self updating of inxi. Its upstream version changes often, generally between 6 and 10 week intervals. To allow self-updating, edit /etc/inxi.conf to disable the disabler - change B_ALLOW_UPDATE= to true.

IME, /etc/inxi.conf only exists if inxi has been installed from a .deb package. openSUSE is not a Debian derivative, while Leap does not often offer a current inxi version. Currently, 15.5 provides 3.3.23, while upstream is 3.3.31, soon to be 3.3.32.

It could also be that the OP forgot to double check their partition layout before instantiating their distribution of choice. It would really help if the OP would provide the community here on LQthe benefit of providing us with the correct log files which ar most commonly found in /var/log/XX.log.

I have Tiger Lake and it is really stable. This is not LP. Anyway I used 5.x - 6.7 kernels without any issues. Iris Xe just works. There was originally an issue with sound (mic) but never with video.
Maybe there was a problem with installation?
