    Hey Etta!

    I like this better than the last kv-6.16.0 root/boot, mpstly because of gpm mouse on the console. Also note the brand spanking new gcc.

    Linux version 6.15.9 (root@bitskii) (gcc (GCC) 15.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.45) #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Aug 8 16:03:20 UTC 2025

    Life is good,
    Maurice

    I noticed that too. My desktop is 6.16.0 but I've held the others at 6.15.* for now.

    Indeed, I think GCC needed an update for glibc-2.42.

    Hey Alan!

    I noticed that too. My desktop is 6.16.0 but I've held the others
    at 6.15.* for now.

    I considered doing the same but opted out for 6.15.9 due to the mouse thingy. It works, and probably is safer for cut n' pasting on the commandline, but I was more annoyed than having a secure feeling.

    Indeed, I think GCC needed an update for glibc-2.42.

    A recent 15.1.1 snapshot also works.

    Дуже груви,
    Maurice
