For the record … I reinstalled Mint 22.3 Zena using compatibility mode, and immediately implemented Clem’s PSR fix ([here](https://community.frame.work/t/ryzen-ai-linux-mint-22-cinnamon-freezing-after-july-31st-package-updates/73948/18)) on my Laptop 16. I have not experienced any Zena freezes since (several days, almost a week) 🙂
