Hey, thanks for this!

The latest AL2023 AMI from EKS still has kernel 6.1, not 6.10 or 6.12. I know we're testing it though.

Graphical desktop is a good callout, its never gonna be pre-installed on EKS AMIs but you can do it.

EDIT: 6.1.132, from https://github.com/awslabs/amazon-eks-ami/releases/tag/v20250419
