Sorry I got covid early this week without knowing it first. I was
just wondering why waking up feels like rising from the grave and
I'm sleeping all the time :-)
I'll sanity check this issue hopefully tomorrow but latest on Monday
(feeling better already).
I think this was without modules but I'll sanity check everything
and come back with the results.
BR, Jarkko
