Sparky news 2022/06

The 6th monthly Sparky project and donate report of 2022:
– Linux kernel updated up to 5.18.8 & 5.15.51 LTS
– Added to repos: NotepadNext text editor, WineZGUI a Zenity based simple GUI for Wine
– Created a new community on Mastodon
– APTus installs virtualbox-6.1 Oracle deb, instead of Debian Sid debs on Sparky 7 now; it makes less problems with dependencies and building vbox module
– Added Sparky Linux kernel LTS to repos (amd64 only)
– Removed Sparky Linux kernel RC from repos
– Removed Sparky Linux kernel 686pae Latest from repos

It means, no more Sparky 686pae in Sparky repos, but, added a new LTS kernel to repos; the Sparky’s Latest and LTS kernels can be installed on amd64 machines only now.
There are 2 reasons to make such changes:
1. The 32 bit architecture is not much popular, so the default Debian kernel is perfect to keep your 32bit machine running; anyway, Xanmod still provides i686 kernel, which can be installed via APTus AppCenter;
2. The LTS kernel (now 5.15) is good choice if your machine require newer kernel than 5.10 but older than 5.18 (via backboard) on Sparky Stable 6; it is also good choice on testing line of Sparky 7, if you can not compile some external modules on the latest kernel (now 5.18)

Many thanks to all of you for supporting our open-source projects. Your donations help keeping them and us alive.

Don’t forget to send a small tip in July too, please.
