Linux Kernel 6.19 released
Linus torvalds has released the final version of Linux Kernel 6.19 after eight release candidates, bringing several improvements and bug fixes, including better networking capabilities for Intel NICs, refined GPU quirks for AMD graphics cards, and improved power management. While the new kernel isn't a massive performance overhaul, it's worth upgrading if you rely on newer Intel NICs or AMD GPUs with mixed-chip displays, or if you enjoy staying on the cutting edge of Linux development. However, users should be aware of potential gotchas, such as Secure Boot issues and compatibility problems with older NVIDIA drivers. For those who want to build the kernel themselves, the process involves downloading the sources, updating the configuration, and compiling the kernel using make menuconfig.
