Solus Users Receive Linux Kernel 4.8.10 and Vivaldi 1.5, QOwnNotes Lands as Well

We’re using the distribution, so we just want to inform you as well about what landed today, November 24, 2016, just in time for the Thanksgiving holiday. First off, Solus is now powered by the latest Linux 4.8.10 kernel, which adds a bunch of networking improvements, and the recently released Vivaldi 1.5 web browser is available too. It’s been only three days since the last sync, but it looks like the Solus devs were quite busy updating various applications and utilities that are essential for the good operation of the distribution. If you look at the attached screenshot, you’ll notice lots of goodies, including sudo 1.8.18_p1, node.js 7.2.0, Vim 8.0.0096, and GNU Make 4.2.1.
