Ubuntu (and Zorin) will plan to update 22.04 to 6.6 LTS kernel?

24.04 will come to 6.8 kernel. It would be a VERY logically, that 22.04 will come the 6.6 LTS kernel update...

Ubuntu 22.04 LTS End of life - Apr 2027

Linux Kernel 6.6 LTS End of life - Dec 2026

If it will happen, we will get a really good and long supported kernel+base distro!

(Yeah i know that possible to install 6.6 with custom PPA, but i not like this sollutions...)

When Canonical delivers the 6.6 LTS Kernel to Ubuntu 22.04 Zorin should get this Kernel too because Zorin uses the Kernels that Ubuntu use. So, the Question ist: Will Ubuntu 22 LTS get the 6.6 LTS Kernel?

We will see. Maybe Canonical take the 6.7 Kernel; could be a Posibility, too.

Regarding kernels update see the previous post.

I had the same question , i think zorin will get everything ubuntu 22.04 will have in the future

in the meantime here a good kernel alternative (both 6.6 and 6.7)

i don't like custom repos, but it is a interesting project... Stéphane Graber are (old) Canonical employee that develop LXC containers.
