The GNU Linux-libre project announced today the release and general availability of the GNU Linux-libre 6.10 kernel for those who seek 100% freedom for their GNU/Linux computers and software freedom lovers.
Based on Linux kernel 6.10, the GNU Linux-libre 6.10 kernel is here to clean up newly added drivers upstream, including Panthor, Intel IPU6, PRUEth SR1, rtw8703b, tps23881, air_en8811h, Intel ISH HID, and pcm6240.
It also adjusts the cleaning up of the Intel i915, rtl8xxxu, qla2xxx, and QCAI sahara drivers, cleans up various new AArch64 devicetree files, removes the clean up of the Prism2.5/3 USB driver as it was removed upstream, and clean up blob references of new files in Adreno, Intel IPU3, and PRUEth drivers.
The GNU Linux-libre 6.10 kernel release also fixes errors triggered by upstream changes in cleaned-up bits that haven’t been modified, namely a qla2xxx Kconfig error, and a couple of Intel i915 warnings that may be turned into errors.
The GNU Linux-libre kernel is targeted at software freedom lovers and Linux purists who want to build a 100% free GNU/Linux computer without any proprietary drivers or code. You can download the latest release’s compressed tarballs right now from the official website.
Ready-to-use binary packages for Debian-based (DEB) and Red Hat-based (RPM) distributions can be found at the Freesh project and RPM Freedom. The GNU Linux-libre kernel can be installed on virtually any GNU/Linux distribution alongside or as a replacement for the standard kernel.
