I used v5.4 kernel on digsy_mtc and tqm5200 last year, and v5.10 kernel is also known to work. >What are the typical distro release cycles for those machines >you list: do you move from one LTS kernel to the next each year, >or are they getting more sporadic over time? these machines are in embedded systems and do not get regular distro updates, therefore more sporadic over time. >Do you expect the machines with the lowest memory such as the >32MB digsy to stop getting kernel updates before the others? No. There are also digsy variants with 256MiB DRAM. Thanks, Anatolij
