I tested Caja with the RC3. It doesn't crash but it has used a lot of CPU resources. (40%)
After a logout and login, Caja works with low CPU resources again.

Please test the kernels.

Thanks,
Christian

That's interesting. I don't see caja using lots of resources once the desktop has loaded. When I ran top I didn't see it near top of the list. So on my system it doesn't appear to be using much CPU time. It does however leave evidence in dmesg. Seems to calm down after a while as I don't see more crashes after booting.

In any case, I tested the RC3, and it all looks good. Boot speed normal. Normal in use. Shut down quickly.

Hypex,

Thank you for testing the RC3.

Thanks. I've been interested in dracut after finding out about it. But AFAIK it conflicts with initramfs-tools. Unless they can cohabitate?

I don't think they can cohabitate. I had to install dracut because mkinitramfs doesn't exist on Void. Dracut is the successor of mkinitramfs.

I have released the stable long-term kernel 6.12.6 with EFI GUID Partition Table (GPT) support.

Please test it.

New for the RC4:

• NFS client fixes
• USB / Thunderbolt fixes
• DRM fixes (including Radeon fix)
• Networking fixes
• MMC fixes
