Didn't have time to extensively test, but I think this one's fixed for me. (Palworld, which would crash instantly runs pretty well.)

The 6.9.0.x64 kernel builds and seems to run fine on Slackware64-15.0.

Kernel 6.9.x is giving issues with f2fs, I needed to rollback to 6.6.29. Each start the fsck was checking for errors on superblocks, both in ssd sata and nvme, rolling back, after the first reboot with kernel, it ran again fsck but appears it fixed, and after the following reboot it stopped.
This new version have new features with f2fs but I think is not 100% free of bugs.

New in 6.10-rc1 is the mseal() system call for memory sealing!

FWIW: Built and installed the 6.10-rc1 kernel and so far it is running well in -current with the nouveau driver. The most recent Nvidia Beta driver would not build and install, but that was not a surprise.
:)

Edit in: It ran for about 60 minutes and then spontaneously rebooted itself.
I've switched back to the 6.9.x kernel which has been rock solid.
