Pete, is this kernel of yours 'PREEMPT'?

The config is included at /etc/modules/DOTconfig-6.1.1-221222

Swapped in and running well in the current VoidPup64 and S15Pup64 pups, both with LXDE ydrvs, and in a pruned bdrv driven non-savefile install of fossapup64 9.6, JWM WM and tray + PcManFM. My Atheros wifi cards continue to be supported in kernel. All tests so far are on the all intel i5 based Fujitsu S761 and S762 laptops.

Good clean boot and dmesg in all, idle resource unchanged from earlier 6.x.x kernels in all 3 pups, lidsuspend ok. Daily use split between the VoidPup64 and the fossapup64_9.6 installs now.

Thanks,

Update: Enough runtime/suspends so the lidsuspend fail related to tpm_tis showed up in my F96_4-CE_radky4 install running @peebees' 6.1.1 kernel. Reported earlier with 6.1.0 in VoidPup64 here: viewtopic.php?p=76050#p76050 under 6.1.0. The patch I used there in /etc/acpi/actions/suspend.sh works fine in this instance also. This almost certainly is hardware dependent so I view it as a note only.

@peebee

I noticed that your kernel got frozen on AMD Ryzen CPU's upon starting the udev. Upon checking the kernel config. The some ryzen support was not yet enabled. Could you please enable Ryzen cpu support to your kernel?

Cannot blame them much for PCs built before 2006 when manufacturer's worldwide standard moved to 64bit PC for consumer+businesses.

In today's corporate business climate, every corporation in every Western Industry is losing workforce...thus we will continue to see a major decline in anyone dedicating resources for old hardware going forward. It has already happened to many of the distrowatch offerings seen over the past 2 years.

Not an unusual state of change without people to do the work. Thusly, as unpleasant as it is, we too will have to adapt.

Thanks as always peebee!

LTS Kernel 6.1.x-x86_64 is now being built on GitHub and will appear in future workflow runs:

https://github.com/puppylinux-woof-CE/w ... el-kit.yml

LxPupSc both 32 & 64 updated to 23.01+2

see: viewforum.php?f=121

Quite a significant update for various reasons:

Slackware Current has updated to openssl3 with many consequential updates..... (heading to beta of 15.1)
Python2 is dropped from devx (not openssl3 capable)
Abiword, Gnumeric and Samba are updated to new versions
Woof-CE updates
etc.

openssl3 builds of Sylpheed are needed to fully complete the update to openssl3 (@OscarTalks ?)

from here

Kernel Build 6.3.0-lxpup64 (x86_64) downloaded and running OOTB in LxPupSc64 23.01 +2 (AUFS) and with usrmerge adjusted kernel modules structure in jammypup64 E1 (overlayfs). The usual Fujitsu S761 hardware, 2nd gen i5 all intel laptop circa 2012. Clean boot -no delays- in both, idle resource and glxgears FPS good and pretty much unchanged from version 6.1.xx kernels in both, one dmesg warning not seen before in LxPupSc64, not in jammypup64:

[   24.104023] warning: `wpa_supplicant' uses wireless extensions which will stop working for Wi-Fi 7 hardware; use nl80211

Some normal daily use in both at this point, nothing to note as yet. No multimedia or USB drive installs tested as yet with it in either pup. I'll run with it in both for now. Posting from LxPupSc64 23.01 +2 with it now using a reasonably up-to-date Brave portable, Version 1.50.120 Chromium: 112.0.5615.121.

Thanks,

WoW....Superb kernel build! I'm on an Acer Intel chromebook ....
I could not find the firmware in the linked address, nor the kernel sources. I will try a build with the DOTconfig .... the intel i5 sst needs realtek codec, and via drivers also, needs skl and kbl for sst audio. There is now a new driver AVS https://www.phoronix.com/news/Linux-5.19-Sound'# CONFIG_SND_SOC_INTEL_AVS is not set' but it's not fully developed for my hardware.

It's almost perfect!

I have not been able to compile 6.3 .... can you provide your sources?
Did you have trouble compiling aufs-utils and patching the sources with aufs?

My raydium touchscreen works with a new module added to blacklist. My skl kbl sst sound card is detected and i hear pops and hisses....i think a codec is missing....not sure.....could be another conflicting module.

On fatdog the 6+ kernels have some change, or aufs-utils, but load_sfs.sh needs modification to load sfs files on loop nodes properly.

If you recompile here are my suggestions, oh ... and an rt version please!

thanks again!

What are you building on? I'm using a version of LxPupSc64 with devx and kernel-sources installed.

No problems here building aufs-utils or any part of the build.

I'm using kernel-kit from Github Woof-CE - the only "sources" are the kernel config which you already have and the build.conf attached.

If I want to rebuild the kernel or compile out of tree modules I will need the kernel-6.3_sources.sfs from your compile, as it will already be patched and setup as /usr/src/linux structure. It cannot just be a vanilla source, as I am using your kernel as is.

thanks

@stemsee zcat /proc/config.gz will give you the kernel configuration file
