Question about #ubuntu #linux #kernel...
My updated ubuntu 26.04.01 is still using a 6.17 OEM kernel:
$ uname -r6.17.0-1032-oem
But it looks like a newer 7.0 kernel has been installed:
$ dpkg --list | grep linux-image | grep "^ii"ii linux-image-6.17.0-1032-oem 6.17.0-1032.32 amd64 Signed kernel image oem
ii linux-image-7.0.0-38-generic 7.0.0-38.38 amd64 Signed kernel image generic
ii linux-image-generic 7.0.0-38.38 amd64 Generic Linux kernel image
ii linux-image-generic-hwe-26.04 7.0.0-38.38 amd64 Generic Linux kernel image
Should I update to use the 7.0 kernel? How do I do that?
@Khurram Wadee - you let us know when updating your kernel. Any advice for a luddite?
Currently, if running Apple M1/M2 Macs & wishing to put Linux in, one should use the Asahi Linux kernel.
There are drivers not yet mainlined, but bit by bit all is to go into the upstream Linux.
Nice OOTB experience for Apple's Arm-based hardware on mainline Linux will happen in near future; then there'll be no need to specifically use Asahi Linux.
