I released the RC7 of kernel 6.19 for X1000 and e5500 machines (X5000/20, X5000/40, Mirari, and QEMU VMs) today.

Thank you for your help with testing.Hypex wrote: Fri Feb 06, 2026 6:24 pm Installed and tested on Xenial. Working well and as expected. The 6.18 RC8 is installed but untested at my end so will report back when I've completed this.

Some people would say a long-term kernel should last a long time. But that's just me.
