Linux 6.19.4 Released

Linux 6.19.4 is now available as a stable update in the 6.19.x series, bringing small but important fixes across the kernel.

This release includes:

• ext4 fixes
• Intel graphics (i915) adjustments
• NVMe improvements
• Intel Wi-Fi driver updates
• Minor power management refinements

On my ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 (i7-1185G7, Tiger Lake), this mainly means incremental stability improvements in graphics, storage, and power behavior.

I’ve also updated my ThinkPad X220 (used as a testing machine), and it continues to run perfectly fine on 6.19.4.

I’m building the kernel using the original SlackBuild scripts from Slackware-current’s testing tree, preserving the official packaging structure and only updating the upstream source.

Build notes are documented here:
