   Hallo Benny!   
      
    BP> we today are limited to 7 bit with multiple problems to solve   
      
   Speak for yourself.  This was never an issue that I was ever aware of.  What   
   was an issue way back when, is silly fidonet sysops who got suckered into   
   thinking that CP437 is higher/upper ascii.  There never was any 8 bit   
   characters in ascii and I doubt there ever will be.   
      
    BP> oh never mind got a new kernel....   
      
   kv-5.8.13 has serious usb issues.  As of today my "stable" boot is using   
   kv-5.4.69.  No penguins with intel graphics but everything else seems to be   
   working including i915drmfb.
