    Hej Benny!

    Looks like it is falling behind from this angle as your tagline claims "Linux/6.18.5-gentoo-dist".

    No ubuntu or gentoo required.

    Hej Benny!

    "Linux/6.18.5-gentoo-dist".
    yes it was not updated

    I have plans to revert back to the 6.12 branch until I regain my confidence ... either that or retire. I see that 6.18 has just been declared the latest longterm branch. Not sure what others are seeing in that branch but it hasn't been very kind to me. :-/

    kernel.org> mainline: 7.0-rc1 2026-02-22

    Not sure what to think about this.

    No ubuntu or gentoo required.
    no winndows vista either :)

    Never was and never will be. I can say the same about any incarnation of windows that ever was, is, or will be.
