Fedora QA has launched community test days for the Linux Kernel 7.1, focusing on both Fedora Linux versions 44 and 43, to identify hardware regressions and boot failures before the stable release. Volunteers are encouraged to test images and install the latest kernel builds, with support from developers and QA engineers available for issue triage and fixes. Participants can follow official regression instructions, log their results, and report any real-world performance issues encountered during testing. The initiative aims to ensure a smooth transition to kernel 7.1 by catching bugs before they affect users on release day

Fedora QA has kicked off community test days for the Linux Kernel 7.1, targeting both Fedora Linux 44 and Fedora Linux 43. Volunteers can boot test images or install the latest 7.1 builds from Koji on virtual and bare metal systems to identify hardware regressions and boot failures before the stable release window closes. A dedicated squad of developers and QA engineers will monitor the official Matrix channel to triage reports and push targeted fixes directly to the testing pipeline.
