Tue Nov 21 21:15:30 UTC 2023 We have fresh 6.6 kernels in /testing! You may notice that on the 32-bit side we have done away with the -smp labeled kernel packages, but it's actually the other kernels that were retired -- the non-SMP, non-PAE ones. If you were previously using kernel-generic-smp or kernel-huge-smp, you'll need to make some adjustments to your bootloader setup to load kernel-generic or kernel-huge instead. About the only non-obsolete CPUs that may have an issue with this are the first generation Pentium M chips, which supported PAE but unfortunately did not advertise this in the CPU flags. But these will support PAE if the kernel option "forcepae" is appended at boot time. Enjoy! :-) a/gettext-0.22.4-x86_64-1.txz: Upgraded. a/kbd-2.6.3-x86_64-3.txz: Rebuilt.

# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE:
# The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. Line
# up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and the '|'
# on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. You must
# make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also
# customary to leave one space after the ':'.

kernel-generic: kernel-generic (a general purpose Linux kernel)
kernel-generic:
kernel-generic: This is a Linux kernel with built-in support for SATA, NVMe, and most
kernel-generic: commonly used filesystems. It is recommended to use an initrd with
kernel-generic: this kernel for best results. For more information about creating an
kernel-generic: initrd, see the README.initrd file in the /boot directory.
