A new year, and an all-new Linux kernel to help power it along!<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Yes, the Linux 6.7 kernel is now officially released \u2014 and it\u2019s a substantial one, packed with a variety of new features, new hardware enablement, and more.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Based solely on commit size, Linux 6.7 is one of the largest in recent history. This is an indication of just how much effort has been invested in refining the latest release.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
