Have you made some hardware changes since the last "normal" boot?

AFAIK, no later than 6.6 is planned for mga9 I guess it may show up as backport though if Cauldron gets it and there is interest and packager have the time. If you want to help out QA testing, 6.6.22 is in updates_testing, bug 32985. And if you want to help packaging that is also much welcome of cou...
