Linux 6.19.1 Released To Ship Some Early Fixes & Device Quirks

For those preferring to wait for the first point release of a new Linux kernel version before upgrading, Linux 6.19.1 is out today to address some early bugs that made it into the Linux 6.19 kernel stable release one week ago.

Linux 6.19.1 is now available and accumulates various small fixes for the past week. Linux 6.19.1 isn’t all that big and nothing really scary for early fallout from this first major kernel version of 2026. There are small fixes to some wireless networking drivers, storage and file-system code, SMB fixes standing out as a lot of them, an HP ZBook Studio G4 audio quirk, and the Bluetooth USB driver adding a new ID for the Edimax EW-7611UXB. Nothing too outstanding but just a small assortment of different fixes and some device additions.

If you aren’t yet ready for the Linux 6.19 series, Greg Kroah-Hartman today also released Linux 6.18.11 for that latest LTS series as well as Linux 6.12.72 and Linux 6.6.125 with various accumulated fixes.

Linux 6.19.1 and other latest kernel versions are available from kernel.org.
