Aptivi<p><strong>Linux 6.16 RC7&nbsp;released!</strong></p><p>Linux 6.16 RC7 is now live for developers and curious users to try out. All the interesting changes from performance improvements to bug fixes have been integrated to this release candidate.</p><p>In addition to that, the release announcement has indirectly confirmed (with the statement of “we’re in good shape”) that the final release (July 28th) is the only release remaining for the development of the 6.16.x series before moving on to 6.17 RC1 (August 11th) two weeks later. Those are expected dates, though.</p><p>In the release announcement for this version of the kernel, <a href="https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/CAHk-=wgdXcZfQEL2Xa+GEEtcC7Ez9SEWnGaB76R76VZsYcMOnA@mail.gmail.com/T/#u" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Linus Torvalds</a> said:</p><blockquote><pre>So last week started very quiet and that always makes me happy. Then on Thursday I started getting some updates, and I went "ok, so at least we have some networking fixes", but things otherwise still felt like this was going to be a tiny rc7.<br><br>And then Friday came along.<br><br>And the weekend.<br><br>And here we are, with a not inconsiderable rc7.<br><br>That said, the last few days I ended up getting a fair amount of pull requests, but pretty much all of them were tiny. A lot of single-fix pulls, and while rc7 isn't the tiny release it looked like mid-week, it's also not really any bigger than usual.<br><br>So there are fixes all over, they are all pretty small.<br><br>Nothing really stands out - the biggest patches in here are for some documentation and self-tests or tooling, not actual kernel code changes.<br><br>So unlike the week before, it all feels very trivial and I think we're in good shape.</pre></blockquote><p><strong>Why not try out this awesome pre-release of Linux 6.16?</strong></p><p><span></span></p><p><a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/computer/" target="_blank">#Computer</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/computers/" target="_blank">#Computers</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/kernel/" target="_blank">#Kernel</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/laptop/" target="_blank">#Laptop</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/laptops/" target="_blank">#Laptops</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/linux/" target="_blank">#Linux</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/linux-kernel/" target="_blank">#LinuxKernel</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/news/" target="_blank">#news</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/tech/" target="_blank">#Tech</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/technology/" target="_blank">#Technology</a> <a rel="nofollow noopener" class="hashtag u-tag u-category" href="https://officialaptivi.wordpress.com/tag/update/" target="_blank">#update</a></p>

mupan 📚<p>Ich bin erschrocken, als ich erfahren habe, dass der <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Linuxkernel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linuxkernel</span></a> nicht insgesamt durchgetestet wird, wenn z.B. ein neuer Treiber eingepflegt wird (commit). Das führt anscheinend immer wieder dazu, dass grundlegende Funktionen wie die reine Audionavigation für <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/seheingeschr%C3%A4nkte" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>seheingeschränkte</span></a> Menschen sucken. Das sind <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Grundlagen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Grundlagen</span></a>, natürlich sehr aufwändige. Eine Freigabe durch sinneseingeschränkte Menschen, von solchen trainierte Betatestpersonen, oder der erfolgreiche Abschluss eines entsprechenden automatisierten Teststapels sollte beim Einchecken zu bestätigen sein. Vielleicht geht hier auch was in Zusammenarbeit mit professionellen Linuxentwickelnden, bei Redhat oder an Unis.</p><p>Ich möchte auch nicht, dass <a href="https://digitalcourage.social/tags/Linux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Linux</span></a> kommerzialisiert wird, aber das wäre für mich ein Mindestmaß an Professionalisierung, um Linux verlässlicher zu bekommen.</p><p><a href="https://inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=KvxdkmPka20" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">inv.nadeko.net/watch?v=KvxdkmP</span><span class="invisible">ka20</span></a></p>

#Astrium #suma #linuxkernel kostet mich Monat für Monat beim Autopatching schon Nerven bei Nachbearbeitung. Nur 1x unter 20 Lunux-VMs , die nach fehlerlosen 25 Qual-Lunux VM Systemen letzter Woche auch ohne Fehler ihre dracut rebuilds schafften, schaffte dieser es nicht und hängt dann im in Kernelreboot mit 😱(panic ohne rootfs). Nur dieses Teil kostet mich 1 h Korrektur durch manuelles Patchen . 😤
