The Fedora laptop is currently running on 6.7.7-200 kernel. (I'm
typing this on the laptop, but currently I'm logged into my main
desktop upstairs using No Machine.) When I login into Fedora it says
when I have updates (notice appears on the top-right corner) so I
just run 'sudo dnf update' — it works fine.

There is also 'sudo flatpak update'.  'sudo dnf upgrade' doesn't catch
those.  I may have a newer kernel ready to go but I haven't rebooted
for a month. I'm running the KDE spin so the notice is on the toolbar.

got rid of it. I didn't know about the flatpak update command, so I
guess I need to run that as well tonight.

 
Now up to 6.7.9-200. No flatpak apps installed on this computer, though
flatpak, itself, is installed.

It's only one version behind stable now:

$ uname -a
Linux lm 6.8.0 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Mon Mar 11 11:08:43 PDT 2024 x86_64
x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

(I built it Monday morning, but only booted it this morning.  Had other
changes to the system that I wanted to make sure weren't affected
by changing kernels.)
