Linux Kernel 6.6 Officially Released

Linux@lemmy.ml – 208 points – 8 months ago

Linux kernel 6.6 is now available for download with Intel shadow-stack, new RISC-V features, new drivers, better hardware support, and more.

Arch users rn:

while true; do pacman -Syu; done

That's what you call a rolling release distribution.

Overkill. Just cron it to run every hour.

That's how you get a system that's constantly up to a whole hour outdated. Just install Ubuntu.

The gap between 6.5 launching and 6.6 launching seems smaller than normal.

Edit : looking back this is not the case. It is the same 2 months between releases. Man time flies
