Linux kernel packages 5.9.6 for Debian buster with 4k page size available
pocock:
For Fedora, I have now opened a change request to use the 4k kernel by default in Fedora 34. There is a new thread for that
For Chromium: I'm not currently using Chromium on this platform, I did have a brief look at the issues related to qtwebkit but I have not returned to that yet.
I'm really glad we made progress on this issue. I'm still trying to get an RX 6800 XT so I can try the same set of packages.

Yes I saw your post on Fedora, I'm trying to install a Kernel with some changes made by me in the options but at the moment of making it readable I can't complete all the operations and that guide you posted to me doesn't work unfortunately. Now I have to try another procedure, we'll see if I can complete it. Chromium can't get it to work and it's very strange because it should be available in the same way as it is for other distros, it seems strange to me ... By the way Firefox is back as a version and in any case the Debian team you have to give a wake up call because they are really too backward, both as a Kernel and as the rest of the system. I can already report a bug in any case regarding the use of Debian with Navi 10. If you let the necessary time pass and you let it go to stand-by, you know that Debian after a set time which by default is set to 5 minutes, it darkens the screen and then you have to move something to make it resume, well if you make it do this with Navi 10, once the screen goes dark, you don't shoot it anymore, it stays black and you have to restart ... it's about 6800 XT, there is too little availability of those cards, it will be hard to get it quickly unfortunately and in any case it still seems very young to work well on our Power systems ...
MPC7500:
You can't compare Debian and Fedora. Fedora is close to upstream (which means up to date packages) and Debian is focused on stability (which means they don't use the latest packages).
MauryG5:
Yes MPC I know that Fedora makes use of recent packages and also serves as a test for Red Hat but it is also true that Debian uses software too but too old ... too old in my opinion ...
