And test the heck out of it starting now! Don't worry, 4.9 is already running on more than the half of my boxes now. So far, transition (from 4.4 mostly) went very smoothly, even on embedded hardware where I'm always a bit more concerned about regressions. While some computers gave the feeling of being a bit slower, there is no data that substantiates it. The only thing that requires checking is the X server in a KVM guest that fails to start. But since I haven got around to take a closer look yet, I preferred not the bother anybody for the time being. Christoph
