Here comes a backport of kernel 4.18.12 to add support for hw not supporte by the 4.14 longterm kernel. Atleast people using newer Amd and Intel Gpus wants theese for added/improved performance and so on... (and some just wants "latest" kernels :) ) Note that we dont provide prebuilt kmods in backports. This is the same as currently in cauldron so its already being tested, and I also run x86_64 server and desktop kernels on mga6 here... So just check that it installs, boots and works...

I don't get it: in the tessting repo I find 4.14.74 as test packages, no trace of 4.18.12 ????

Hmmmmm, forgot to enable backports, sorry.
MGA6-64 Plasma on Lenovo B50 No installation issues. Boots OK, makes Wifi connection, can open pictures and documents. Should be OK.

Intel Core i7-4790 (-HT-MCP-) NVIDIA GM204 [GeForce GTX 970] Mobo: MSI model: Z97-G43 (MS-7816) Installed desktop and server kernels, rebuilding kmods on the fly. Removed one of the older kernels. Ran drakboot --boot to reorganize grub2 menu. Rebooted to 4.18.12-desktop-1.mga6. Common applications run fine, stress tests completed, networking OK. NFS shares mounted automatically from fstab. virtualbox and celestia work.

I've got a newish Skylake HTPC that is pretty much limited to running kodi, qbittorrent, browsers for some surveillance cameras and streaming, occasionally kaffeine for OTA ATSC tv recordings. I installed the kernel and kernel-devel and no noticeable problems for a day or so. Thanks.

Enough tests for this as it's only a backport and new ones are coming... validating and moving
