Esontweni eledlule, uLinus Torvalds wajikijela i-Linux RC yesibili eyayinkulu kunokuvamile, kodwa yazi kahle ukuthi kwenzekani. Emahoreni ambalwa edlule usinike I-Linux 6.1-rc3, futhi isenkulu kunokuvamile. Noma kunjalo, njengoba echaza, ukuthi ubukhulu bukhula kuleli sonto buvame kakhulu, ngakho-ke akabonakali ekhathazekile. Okuphambene kungaba izindaba.
I-Linux 6.1-rc3 kukhulu nje kunokujwayelekile, ukuze ibe nalo sayizi, izinkinga zesonto eledlule kudingeke ukuthi zihlanganiswe nokuthi abantu sebeqalile ukuthola okufanele kulungiswe. Kulokhu, usayizi uhlobene nezindawo ezimbalwa, hhayi nje eyodwa njengaku-RC 2.
I-Linux 6.1 izofika ekuqaleni kukaDisemba
Ngiyazi ngishilo ngesonto eledlule ukuthi i-rc2 ibinkulu ngendlela engajwayelekile. Kuvele ukuthi i-rc3 icishe ilingane ncamashi nosayizi. Kodwa okungenani ngenguqulo ye-rc3, lowo sayizi omkhulu ujwayeleke kakhulu: yilapho abantu beqala khona ukuthola izinkinga futhi bazithumelele izilungiso.
Ngakho-ke, ngenkathi i-rc2 ibinkulu _kakhulu_ kunokujwayelekile, i-rc3 indlwana nje kunenguqulo emaphakathi ye-rc3. Kodwa kusekukhudlwana. Ngiyethemba ukuthi izinto ziqala ukuqina futhi siqala ukubona lawa ma-rc encipha ngosayizi. Ngiyacela?
Ngokungafani ne-rc2, asikho isizathu esisodwa senqwaba yezinguquko ze-rc3. Esikhundleni sazo zonke izinhlobo, ngokusatshalaliswa okuvamile: abashayeli bayabusa (inethiwekhi, i-gpu nomsindo yizona eziphawuleka kakhulu, kodwa kukhona okuncane kwakho konke).
Uma konke kuhamba kahle, i-Linux 6.1 kufanele iqale Disemba 4. Ngaphandle kwalokho, ukufika kwakhe kuzobambezeleka isonto lonke, futhi ubezotholakala mhlaka-11 kuyo leyo nyanga. Uma isikhathi sifika, futhi njengenjwayelo, abasebenzisi baka-Ubuntu abafuna ukuyifaka kuzofanele bazifakele bona, ngokuzenzela noma ngokusebenzisa amathuluzi afana I-Mainline. Ubuntu 23.04, ezofika ngo-Ephreli 2023, kufanele isebenzise i-6.2 kernel.
