> March ISO refresh with latest LTS kernel 6.12 is ready to download. ISO with slightly older LTS kernel 6.1 is also available. Some noteworthy new features… A brand new Mabox’s home-made tool…
**Note!**
_It is not possible to deliver all new features as simple updates._
_So if you already have Mabox installed and want to configure new toys, see:_
[Mabox CHANGELOG (Openbox)](https://forum.maboxlinux.org/t/mabox-changelog-openbox/2194)
_I try my best to write instructions there about new functionalities and how to easily obtain them on an older installation._

I installed that kernel a couple of weeks ago: it boots using less memory than 6.1… but when I open YouTube with Firefox, the temperature and CPU usage spike 🚀 🥵 🌡 . If I use qtile instead of openbox (with your tint2), this doesn’t happen.

Works fine for me…
Anyway, thanks to the Manjaro Team we have a really comfortable way of installing multiple kernels, and select one of them at boot time 🙂
