I already run powertop for enabling all the C-states, I wonder if this can do more
And the wait begins again!
Yup, still staying on 6.11.5 until 6.12.x seems like it’s gonna be the last release for 6.12.
The wait for what?
The wait to see if this version is stable enough to be worth upgrading to. 6.12.1 broke a bunch of docker processes apparently and 6.12.2 fixed those but had its own issues from what I was seeing people post.
May have been people with very esoteric setups. Easy enough to test, nothing is going to break. Just back up usb key before upgrading. If it doesn’t work you just restore the backup, no need for panic.
FWIW both of my 6.12 systems upgraded flawlessly. I run a handful of common dockers on my main system and very few on my backup machine.
I’m toying with upgrading mine to the latest release remotely. I’m on the other side of the world away from my servers right now but not a significant risk imho. Supermicro IPMI makes it pretty risk free.
It does seem to have fixed the docker bug, so that’s good. I haven’t experimented too much yet because I also added a new drive so I’ve been letting it pre-clear. I’ll experiment more once that drive is up and running.
