Hi All,

I released the stable longterm kernel 5.10.124 for the X1000 and X5000 today.

It's suitable for old Linux distributions which don't work with the latest kernels for example Ubuntu 10.04. It's also suitable if you have some issues with the latest kernels.

Download: linux-image-5.10.124-X1000_X5000.tar.gz

BTW, I compiled Open Sonic on Ubuntu 10.04 yesterday and it works great on it. Unfortunately it's a very old game and there are some sound issues on modern Linux distributions.

Download: opensnc-linux-powerpc.tar.gz



Please test the kernel.

Cheers,
Christian
