Hello. Currently testing it with Xenial. Booted and working fine so far on X1000. Modules loaded look like sound module. Do see a harmless message about unmatched mount options in dmesg.

Hi All,
Here is the
RC4 of kernel
6.19 for X1000 and e5500 machines (X5000/20, X5000/40, Mirari, and QEMU VMs).
Could you please test this kernel because of the new cross-compiling environment in a Docker container?
@Mirari users
Please test the USB3.0 Renesas controller because of the firmware file from the git. I hope, I have uploaded the correct firmware to the git.
Download and further information:
github.com
Thanks,
Christian

Tested on my Mate and Debian installs. Booted up fine. Working well as I type.
