I'm looking to move to Linux, but I've seen there is a gaming bug related to the kernel. The issue is reportedly fixed in 6.9, but I can't find the version used in the current release on GitHub.

I'm currently looking at Bazzite, but knowing how to locate the kernel version (prior to download) would be helpful for any distro.

To be honest I'm surprised I'm having a hard time finding the precise version from their site.

It appears that they are using the atomic edition of Fedora if that helps you search it down.

I imagine if you downloaded the source for bazzite the kernel information would be in there, I'm on my phone or I would check myself.

No worries, I appreciate the guidance. I'm just getting started so everything helps!
