I primarily use the box as a roon endpoint, so I don't really need the latest features and can live with 8.3.0 release for a while. That said, I do want to keep current.
Do you know when we would see the kernal fix as part of a Moode release? or are you still waiting for some things before you include the kernal fix as part of a new Moode version/upgrade?
If I decide to go the patch route prior to Moode inclusion, can I patch 8.3.0 directly and upgrade to 8.3.5 or do I need to upgrade to some other Moode version prior to installing the kernal patch?
We only use official Raspberry Pi kernel packages to ensure stability. Currently moOde uses kernel 6.1.21 which is the latest official kernel package.
A quick run of apt update / apt list --upgradable on an 8.3.5 system does not show a new kernel package yet.

pi@moode:~ $I'll check again before doing the release admin/testing for upcoming 8.3.6 (Q3) and hopefully a new kernel package >= 6.1.35 which is the kernel containing the Allo fixes will be in the upgrade list :-)
It looks like just a few posts earlier @chaetura mentioned that the kernel patch won't interfere with moOde in-place updates. The patch will however not include our three driver enhancements: pcm1794a 384k, aloop 384k and the rtl88xxau driver for Comfast CF-912AC WifFi Adapter. If you don't use any of these then it won't have any effect on your setup.
