@solarisfire That's not good, suffocating the active cooler. I was affraid of that... Anyway, the Raspberry Pi guys said that their M.2 HAT features 16mm stacking header and threaded spacers so that it can be fitted to a Raspberry Pi 5 with the Raspberry Pi Active Cooler in place.

6.9-rc7 is now available for public testing at https://kernel.org/ and Linus Torvalds says that "the stats for 6.9 continue to look very normal, and nothing looks particularly alarming." Of course, this means that the final Linux 6.9 kernel should arrive on May 12th. Happy testing!
