Greg Kroah-Hartman proudly announced on August 20 that the branch 3.4 of the kernel Linux se will keep for at least 2 years. |
The famous Linux kernel developer said he would still keep the Linux 3.0 kernel for another year, and the Linux 3.5 kernel until the Linux 3.6.1 kernel is available.
"As I am getting some questions about this, and as I realized I never sent an email about it, yes, the 3.4 kernel tree will be the next long-term kernel that we will keep for at least 2 years."
“I am currently keeping the following kernel trees stable for the following amount of time: 3.0 - for at least one more year, 3.4 - for at least two years; 3.5 - 3.6.1 to release, ”Greg Kroah-Hartman said in the email announcement.
I have the kernel: Linux hikaru-x01 3.4.9-1-ARCH # 1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Aug 15 18:11:01 UTC 2012 i686 GNU / Linux what is the latest kernel? the 3.5 I think? o no owo
I upgraded to version 3.5 and ran out of Wifi; I gave it to look for proprietary drivers and although it finds them it does not install them. I removed that version and put 3.4 and it doesn't recognize Wifi either; so I had to leave the 3.2.029 I had.
I am using LinuxMint13 KDE 64 bits and I have kernel 3.2.0.29, is it necessary to update it to 3.5?
Well I'm new to this in the linux world, what kernel uses ubunto 12.04, how can I know the version that is being used and how can I update to version 3. 4 😉
As a stable version it is 3.5 and now 3.6 is in testing but if your machine works well, I do not recommend updating it.
if it works bn, but pk is it not good to update it? Or: many bugs?
