I haven't read this 'froup since the morning of the 4th.

Now it's full of stuff that might or might not be interesting.

Allow me to add to that: Linux 7-rc7 is out. (I'm soaking
in it.)

Also, the standard release NVIDIA driver has a higher
version number than the beta, so I guess 595 is
the new hotness.

LOL!

Bloaty made a funny!

I also applaud you for stating that "Linux 7-rc7 is out." might or might
not be interesting.

It's not so much, for me, because it's just another release candidate;
they come so often it's hard to keep up.

"Linux 7 is out" WILL be big news.

I think your "kernel rc is out." posts should highlight several new
features or functionalities you find most interesting. Give us
something to chew on!

I had already reported that 595.45 has FINALLY eliminated
the CONFIG_MMU_NOTIFIER requirement.

I have been demanding this for over a year.

They finally have obeyed my orders.

The drivers now are fully open source for cards above
Turing.
