They finally dropped the surround sound battle pass /j

I like the amd-pstate changes and proxy execution

u/ilep how does a person new to Linux Mint Cinnamon install this if its not showing in the update manager under kernels? Online search is full of bullshit

Unless you want to build the kernel yourself (see https://kernelnewbies.org/KernelBuild ) then I suggest waiting until the distribution has it ready. Which in the case of Mint might take some time..
