Add support for Workstation 17.6.0

Open philipl opened this issue 1 year ago • 8 comments

This isn't really mergeable given how this repo is constructed but it's a working 17.6.0 source tree with the compatibility patches we need for 6.9.0 and 6.10.0. (and 6.11 doesn't seem to require anything additional)

It works fine on openSUSE Tumbleweed with kernel 6.10.7-1-default

Remember to turn off Secure Boot

You are a life saver. This should somehow be merged back into new workstation-17.6.0 branch

Should this be compatible with 6.11?

Yes, it seems to work fine without additional patches.

This got me out of a real bind - thank you!

Works great on Fedora 40 with kernel 6.10.11-200.fc40.x86_64

Works like a charm on Pop!_OS 22.04 with kernel 6.9.3-76060903-generic

I've opened a new PR #288 for 17.6.1
