The build 1.2.5 resolves localization issues, incorporates the en_GB locale into the default locale list to accommodate British English, and rectifies a problem where the installer ubiquity does not adhere to the system theme. The package cracklib-runtime has been incorporated to improve password security.
The list of changes in the X86 kernel includes fixes for various issues, such as split 1024-byte hexdumps, SND_AICA dependency on SH_DMA_API, and more. The list also includes fixes for USB 2.0 host detection failure, wlan_ctrl_by_user detection, and CGX Receive counters. Other improvements include introducing NULL check in uclogic_input_configured(), introducing the devmem_only flag for allocation, and fixing LDO5 shutdown causing SD card timeout.

AnduinOS 1.3, a Linux distribution inspired by Windows 11 and based on GNOME 48, has been updated to version 1.3.1, incorporating minor fixes and enhancements. The tasks encompass addressing Nautilus crashes, modifying image text during boot, incorporating the en_GB locale, rectifying Nautilus admin:/ command errors, and correcting the installer's default fallback order. The update mechanism is currently handled through a bash script but will be integrated into the sudo apt upgrade command in the future.
Linus Torvalds has announced the sixth release candidate for Linux kernel 6.15, with a slightly higher number of commits than in rc5, but this is not a significant difference.
The release schedule still has two weeks left, and it seems to be on track. The changes include drivers, architecture fixes, filesystems, core networking, and other random stuff. The changes include enabling InterTouch on various devices, adjusting GPU and NPU clocks in nominal DTSI, fixing pm notifier handling, and improving responsiveness of fbnic_mbx_poll_tx_ready. The kernel also includes fixes for a more liberal vmin/vmax update for freesync, a more liberal call for FP Protect Before Mode Programming/Mode Support, and adjustments to interrupt-controllers for stm32mp25 SoCs and stm32mp21 SoCs.
