New kernels

[xeno74]

I noticed too late that alpha2 was ready and only tested alpha1 in that weird but sort of fun adelie:

I wasn't able to post the screen shot from adelie; I had to save it on my thumb drive and come back to fienix.

Nice screenshot. Thank you for testing!

Alpha3 working in fienix and adelie. I tried to do another screen shot from adelie but, though I got the shot, I couldn't do anything with it!
