Oh, this might be interesting…  At least it's something.

Could you diff a working 6.5.7 and broken 6.5.8 configuration?  The 
configuration is stored as /gnu/store/…-linux-libre-6.5.x/.config; 
there's no need to boot the kernel just to load the config.gz module.

If you use Coreboot or a derivative: do your broken kernels include 
<https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/guix.git/commit/?id=6d7e181ba18d11c92409a93936025fb46b9c8171>?

And if they do, have you tried booting with

  (initrd-modules (cons "framebuffer-coreboot" %base-initrd-modules))

by any chance?

Kind regards,

T G-R
