Desktop stuck after apt upgrade

Hi, I find my Ubuntu 24.04 GNOME destop stuck after doing sudo apt update & sudo apt dist-upgrade. The gnome-shell process takes 100% of CPU and the GUI is very slow to respond. This doesn’t seem normal. Seems that the cause of the issue is upgrading of package eswin-eic7x-gpu from 1.18+0ubuntu1 to 24.2+0ubuntu16. I am sure that the old version of the package works well. So is this new version of the package ready for use? Thanks for your help!

Thanks for the quick repy! By hotfix, do you mean a further update of this package? And what should I do to get the fix? Another sudo apt update & sudo apt dist-upgrade?

Yeah, I’ve just upgraded the package and seems to work! Thanks for your help!
BTW: I noticed the package description mentions rockos. Shouldn’t it be ubuntu?
