Re: Linux 4.9.7

Hi,

Any reports of 4.9.7 breaking X?
I run arch and keep it up to date. With todays updates and 4.9.7 built here X will not start kde correctly. Reverting to 4.9.6 fixes things. Config is the same for both builds. I have three btrfs patches and the BFQ 4.9.0-v8r7 patchset applied on top of stable git's 4.9.{6|7}.

Suggestions on what to look for or to try reverting (via git)

xorg-server is 1.19.1-1
xf86-video-amdgpu 1.2.0-2
mesa is 13.0.4-1

kernel is x86_64

Thanks
Ed

I'm announcing the release of the 4.9.7 kernel.

All users of the 4.9 kernel series must upgrade.

The updated 4.9.y git tree can be found at:
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-4.9.y
and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser:

thanks,
