Rigidity conjecture for Hirzebruch–Kummer coverings of rigid line configurations

Let L{\mathcal L} be a rigid line configuration, and let HK(n,L)HK(n, {\mathcal L}) be the associated Hirzebruch–Kummer covering of exponent nn. Rigidity conjecture. If L{\mathcal L} is rigid, then the surface HK(n,L)HK(n, {\mathcal L}) is rigid for nn sufficiently large. This conjecture asks whether rigidity of the line configuration eventually implies rigidity of its Hirzebruch–Kummer coverings; it is known for the complete quadrangle, where HK(n,CQ)HK(n, {\mathcal C}{\mathcal Q}) is rigid if and only if n4n\geq 4, but the general case remains open.
