Im experiencing this. I seems to be a harware (CPU) issue that's patched in later linux kernels. Here comes a quote:
"Mitigations for RETBleed were patched into the Linux kernel at 5.18.14. Linux Lite uses 5.15. Honestly, it's not something the average user ought to worry about that much, but if your processor is affected, mitigations are available in all kernels 5.18 or newer."
So that seems to be the my problem with DSL in a nutshell. I have compiled a lot of kernels before, some time ago, would like to know what kernel I should aim for.
// meo
That explains why I've had problems with both DSL and antiX 23. The linux kernels in them aren't patched for this problem while most linux distros (yes, I am a "distro-junkie") work right off the bat. I might just give it a shot to compile a new kernel for DSL 2024 since I really like it.
