I’m just at awe to see Torvalds still publishing the release notes for Linux kernel.
Wonder what kind of succession is in place. I'd assume there's a legal framework around it to ensure continuity with something so important.

#92Can't wait for Ubuntu to drop this into the Oracular beta for a couple of days and pretend like that was tested before release.

#93Earlier quoted context omitted.
PREEMPT_RT would be a boon for audio/video work, hope it finally goes in. Not everyone who needs it knows they need it, let alone how to compile it, and having it in-tree would massively simplify the process for distros to [re-]package a proper RT kernel.
These kind of schedulers often harm servers' I/O usage. And the opposite it's true too. Server based loads are bad for multimedia/gaming desktops.

I mean, it's GPL. If something were to happen to him, anyone could just start their own fork. There would likely be some competition between forks for a while before two or three emerge as the successors eventually.

Isn’t that the very definition of what an upcoming release should do?
The kernel should go out to general testing as soon as the cycle starts, not right before it ends.

#976.10 (TEN, the previous one) has been a very problematic release for me, with one desktop running into four major bugs in total: three separate amdgpu bugs resulting in video corruption, hangs and crashes, and now that I'm on 6.10.10 and those seem to be fixed, the system intermittently refuses to come up from sleep mode. Anyone else having similar experience? This is the first time something like that happened in a…
6.10 broke my fedora gaming proton box and I was on holiday at the time and so upset I just nuked it and put windows on it to play games. Now it's only powered on on the weekends to play games and I've moved all my linux needs to a VM on my overspecc'd Mac. I also had an AMDGPU system. 5600X, AMD 6800 GPU, Fedora 40. -> now win11 (which has so much cruft out of the box I am considering nuking it and going back haha)

There were problems on earlier kernels, but they were mostly fixed by a firmware update. Kernel already had support by that time.

If I boot from kernel version 6.5, suspend works fine. Hold shift while your machine is booting and the grub menu will allow you to select a different kernel version.

Even the latest Linux kernel 6.11 still have same issues (atleast for me)
