PCSX2 GPU hang

Hi folks, I've discovered that PCSX2 causes an Intel GPU hang on bullseye. The whole display manager has to be restarted after the crash. I'm not sure if this occurs in bookworm. I would report the bug directly, but I don't know which maintainer would be the best to take a look at it. My gue

I am in the market for a new (or refurbished) KVM with the subject attributes. I only need to support a single monitor, but reliability and holding video settings for each computer are important to me. Reviews I've found online are terrible, but I would appreciate hearing from satisfied Debian KV
