Re: New kernels

Hi All,
The merge window is over. Linus Torvalds has released the RC1 of kernel 6.18 for testing.
I have compiled it for X1000 and e5500 machines (X5000/20, X5000/40, Mirari, and QEMU VMs).
The kernel developers have activated the power management for all devices connected to PCI and PCI Express.
Unfortunately not all devices are working with these modifications. For example AMD Radeons HD6870 and HD5870. There are some kernels available with different patches for testing.
Download and further information: github.com
Kernel 6.18.0-rc1 testing:

Please test the kernels.
Thanks,
Christian
