BandanaBugCachyOS has a handy kernel tool which let’s you select what kernel you’d like to run. You can try and play with that.
BjörnThe kernels (and accompanying modules/drivers) are more or less freely interchangeable.
Bugs in the kernel are pretty rare in my experience. I think it’s more likely that the bug was somewhere in KDE Plasma. Kubuntu’s version should be older than the one on Cachy. On top of that Kubuntu has their own patches for KDE, so even if the version numbers are the same they are not the exact same programs. And on top of that the way they compiled KDE will be slightly different.

i chalked it up to some kind of optimization that doesn’t agree with my computer but that’s just my head-canon

interesting, distrowatch says plasma-desktop “6.4.5” for kubuntu 25.10 and “6.5.3” for cachy 251129 (the version i likely was on) so it is a possibility. (plus i feel like it started after an update)
