Looks Like Debian 12 “Bookworm” Will Ship with Linux Kernel 6.1 LTS
With only three or four months left until the Debian GNU/Linux 12 “Bookworm” hits the streets, the development team is hard at work preparing the Debian Installer with new features and improvements. The biggest changes so far are the inclusion of non-free firmware by default and the move to Linux kernel 6.1 LTS in the official images.
That right there is very good news for fans of the Debian GNU/Linux operating system who aim to install the Bookworkm series this summer. Both the inclusion of non-free firmware packages and the long-term supported Linux 6.1 LTS kernel, which will receive updates until December 2026, will definitely boost hardware support for new installations.
