Kusemthethweni: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS izofaka i- i-kernel I-Linux 4.4 LTS. Kusukela izolo, ngoFebhuwari 1, 2016, inguqulo entsha ye-Linux kernel ingasetshenziswa ne-Ubuntu. ICanonical ilayishe inguqulo ezinzile yakamuva yamaphakeji we-kernel ezinqolobaneni ze i-distro lokho kuzofika ngo-Ephreli olandelayo, ukuze abasebenzisi abathanda ukuzama izinto ezintsha bavele baqale ukukusebenzisa.
Como ya dijeron nuestros compañeros de Linux Adictos, el i-kernel I-4.4 LTS iza nezici eziningi ezintsha. Uma kwenzeka ungakhumbuli ukuthi ziyini, ake senze ukubuyekeza okusheshayo:
- Ukusekelwa kwe-AMD Stoney, ama-APU alandelayo akhishwe yi-AMD.
- Ziningi izithuthukisi nezengezo ezithinta kahle ama-AMD GPU njengeCarrizo, iTonga neFiji. Yize kungakabikho ukusekelwa kokuphathwa kwamandla kwamakhadi ahlukile, kuzoba nezimagqabhagqabha zalokhu ku-Linux 4.5 kernel.
- Okusajingijolo Pi KMS Driver okufakiwe ngenxa yomsebenzi ka-Eric Anholt we-Broadcom, yize ingakasingathi ukusheshiswa kwehardware ye-3D, kepha isivele iyasetshenzwa.
- I-Los Abalawuli beNouveau nabo baletha ukuthuthuka ukuzinza kwama-NVIDIA GPUs, kepha akukho okuphawulekayo. Kukhona nokunye okunye ukuthuthuka kwemidwebo yeQualcomm's Snapdragon 820 SoCs, nama-chips we-Intel's chips, ikakhulukazi iSkylake neBroxton.
- Ukuvuselelwa kwama-ARM angama-64-bit kanye nezithuthukisi ze-EFI zalezi zakhiwo. Kukhona nokuthuthuka kwamanye amapulatifomu e-ARM asuselwa ku-ARM.
- Izinguquko eziningi ngokuya ngamanethiwekhi. Enye yazo ukwesekwa kwamakhadi we-Realtek RTL8xxxU WiFi, ukusekelwa kwe-Very Highputput MESH ku-Atheros ATH10K, ukuxhaswa kweVRF kusitaki se-IPv6, ukusekelwa kwezinhlelo ezingezona ezimpande ze-eBPF nokunye ukuthuthuka ngokwamamephu nezinhlelo ezine-eBPF, njll.
Izinto azihlali kulokho esisanda kukutshela, ngoba Ithimba le-Ubuntu Kernel eCanonical ngokulandela eduze umjikelezo wentuthuko yalesi sisekelo se-soprote eseluliwe, esathola ukukhishwa kwaso kokuqala kwesondlo ezinsukwini ezimbalwa ezedlule. Lokhu kulethele abasebenzisi ubuchwepheshe bamuva obuvela kufayela le- i-kernel njengoba bekhululwa.
