Hey Red!

The upgrade to x86_64-moosile-linux-gnu on the EuroPoint looks great from this angle and required no duct tape ... yet. Here are the gory details that matter;

/lib/libc.so.6:
GNU C Library (GNU libc) development release version 2.34.9000.
Copyright (C) 2021 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
This is free software; see the source for copying conditions.
There is NO warranty; not even for MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A
PARTICULAR PURPOSE.
Compiled by GNU CC version 11.2.0.
libc ABIs: UNIQUE IFUNC ABSOLUTE
For bug reporting instructions, please see:
<https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/bugs.html>.

Note it is a development version and not a release. However glibc-2.35 is only a month away and, as I predicted to Benny, glibc-2.34 ended up being skipped over. In the meantime this partition will probably be the default root/boot system until then unless something ugly reveals itself. I still have the previous partition in reserve. :-)

Life is good,
Maurice

2.34 is unstable in gentoo, 2.35 is not in gentoo yet

so i am still at 2.33 stable

it will come kernel 5.16.x with gpu optimizing before 2023 :=)

no hope for fb0 keep showing pengiuns yet

but atleast amdgpu is optimized in 5.16

Hey Benny!

2.34 is unstable in gentoo, 2.35 is not in gentoo yet

I believe 2.34 is unstable, and 2.35 doesn't exist yet.

so i am still at 2.33 stable

Understood. I am in the same situation ... up to now that is. The EuroPoint doesn't require graphics or even a monitor. Also it uses i915 and is lowpower so no need for anything other than server type apps.

it will come kernel 5.16.x with gpu optimizing before 2023 :=)

I am betting 5.18.x will be when this branch comes together.

no hope for fb0 keep showing pengiuns yet

We'll get there I am sure.

but atleast amdgpu is optimized in 5.16

I haven't tried it yet. As of this boot;

cat /proc/version:
Linux version 5.15.12 (root@heatsink) (gcc (GCC) 11.2.0, GNU ld (GNU Binutils) 2.37) #1 SMP Sun Jan 2 17:05:58 UTC 2022

Note that heatsink is the hostname where the EuroPoint resides.

Life is good,
Maurice
