[NEWS] Linux 6.16
« on: July 27, 2025, 08:41:48 pm »
It's finally out! A massive release IMHO. Lots of improvements for NVIDIA GPU driver. Unfortunately not much changes on the POWER side.

My AMD Radeon RX6600 continues to work with this new version.

The point now is to understand when there will be stable support for the new rdna 4 instead, I would like to buy for example the radeon pro 9700 to upgrade my 5700 after a long time... We'll see what happens in the next few months...

I am more interested in discrete Intel GPUs even though I know Intel's been laying off teams working on Open Source softwares lately.
