Debian 13 (Trixie) household installation progress:
- ✅ plinth (canary machine)
- ✅ quieter3ctv-403 (living room home theater/Kodi box)
- ❌ aquitaneng (desktop/gaming machine)
- ran afoul of a bug in the Intel `xe` GPU driver in the 6.12.x kernel series¹ ²! System is bootable but the GPU fails to initialize: no graphics, no desktop. Fix upcoming "in a future 6.12.y upload". Alas!

Got a rtl8761 dongle. - ✖️ sundial (household catch-all service server) ¹: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/linux-signed-amd64#:~:text=Accepted%20linux-signed-amd64%206.12.41 ²: https://tracker.debian.org/news/1654998/accepted-linux-signed-amd64-612411-source-into-stable-security
