The only error shown in /var/log/boot.log: [FAILED] Failed to start Load/Save Screen Backlight Brightness of backlight:acpi_video0. See 'systemctl status systemd-backlight@backlight:acpi_video0.service' for details. which I solved with the command: systemctl mask systemd-backlight@backlight:acpi_video0.service With kernel 5.8.18 I still see the earlier mentioned errors and warnings. Not sure if this means less performance in 3D applications? $ sudo dmesg --level=err,warn [ 0.318622] TSC synchronization [CPU#0 -> CPU#1]: [ 0.318622] Measured 453215862 cycles TSC warp between CPUs, turning off TSC clock.
