@Thomas A, from qa-discuss i presume that is your 32 bit P4 and RV200 GPU ?

OK 64 bit:

Installed
- cpupower-5.5.6-2.mga7.x86_64
- kernel-desktop-5.5.6-2.mga7-1-1.mga7.x86_64
- kernel-desktop-devel-5.5.6-2.mga7-1-1.mga7.x86_64

- virtualbox-kernel-desktop-latest-6.0.18-4.mga7.x86_64
And rebooted.

My machine "svarten": Mainboard: Sabertooth P67, CPU: i7-3770, RAM 16G, Nvidia GTX760 (GK104) using nvidia-current; GeForce 635 series and later

Disk&Filesystem: SSD with EFI and ext 4 /boot, then an encrypted partition for LVM, containing swap and ext4 /home & /

Plasma desktop.
Thunderbird, LibreOffice, FreeCad, Ktorrent, Syncthing, Nextcloud client...
Video with sound in Firefox
CUDA and OpenCL detected by BOINC, and used OK.
Stress test: BOINC use all cores to 100%, videos do not stutter.

Will keep using it.

__Virtualbox: (-6.0.18-1.mga7)

(Minor glitch once: when windows guest stared booting it immediately in its window stopped dead showing  "FATAL: Keyboard error:995"
But restarting the guest, it boots OK. And subsequent boots also OK. Weird)

This is the same windows guest as used in Bug 26238
Tests OK:
  Dynamically resizing guest window by mouse
  Shared clipboard, bidirectional
  Shared folders bidirectional copying
  USB2: flash stick
  Sound, Internet, performance: playing video in Firefox while host is heavily loaded.

That's the one. I should have been more specific. TMB had me try a preliminary version of this kernel to see if his fix had done the job, and I was just confirming to him that it's still OK on this version.

i5-2500, 16GB RAM, Integrated Intel graphics, wired Internet connection, 64-bit Plasma system.

All packages installed cleanly. Rebooted to a working desktop. Tried several apps, including a Windows XP guest in VirtualBox. No issues noted.

Looks OK on this hardware.

Amd Phenom II X4 910, 8GB RAM, Radeon HD 8490 graphics, Atheros wifi, 64-bit Plasma system.

All packags installed cleanly. Rebooted to a working desktop. Performed the same tests as in Cmment 6, with no issues noted.

Looks OK on this hardware.

Installed 14 packages and rebooted.  Mate desktop restored, running nvidia-current.

Kernel: 5.5.6-desktop-2.mga7 x86_64
MSI model: Z97-G43 (MS-7816)
Intel Core i7-4790 type: MT MCP

Advisory, added to svn:
type: security
subject: Updated kernel packages fix security vulnerability
CVE:
 - CVE-2019-XXXX
src:
  7:
   core:
     - kernel-5.5.6-2.mga7
     - kmod-virtualbox-6.0.18-4.mga7
     - kmod-xtables-addons-3.8-4.mga7
description: |
  This update is based on upstream 5.5.6 and fixes atleast the following
  security vulnerability:

  A flaw was found in the way KVM hypervisor handled instruction emulation
  for the L2 guest when nested(=1) virtualization is enabled. In the
  instruction emulation, the L2 guest could trick the L0 hypervisor into
  accessing sensitive bits of the L1 hypervisor. An L2 guest could use this
  flaw to potentially access information of the L1 hypervisor
  (CVE-2020-2732).

  Other additional fixes in this update:
  - a fix for broken radeon on 32bit (mga#26237)
  - broken iwlwifi for some (mga#26248)
  - a bugfix for pipe optimization backported in the 5.5.4 update

  For other upstream fixes in this update, see the referenced changelogs.
