Reasons for this is cause an app I use supports only older kernel versions.And I need newer Ubuntu versions cause they're supported(still have repos)and support for gnome shell.I currently use Ubuntu 10.04.
so i am building a series of custom kernels...
for one of them i am using a kernel that is older than my currently installed ones.
i am using rpm to install this kernel and it will not install, period.
does anybody know a work around, i don't get why i can't install this....what does it matter
On my portable computer Alienware M11x running Ubuntu, any kernel version after 3.0.0.12 boots up in an appallingly slow fashion.
3.0.0.12 will boot at least 3 or 4 times faster then any of the newer kernel. Any idea what changed post 3.0.0.12 that would explain this ?
Newer kernels are of course nice but until I figure out why booting them is so slow it will be hard to switch.

I encountered a bug in one of the newer kernel versions. There is no workaround; if I want to have sound at my system at all, I have to boot an older kernel version.
I'm running the current stable Ubuntu version (Oneiric) but have issues with the shipped kernel.
With talk of a massive power regression in the recently released Linux 3.5 kernel, yesterday I began benchmarking some different systems with varying versions of the Linux kernel looking for any new kernel power regressions on different hardware.

With the recent look at the major Linux power regressions taking place within the Linux kernel, some initially wondered if the increase in power consumption was correlated to an increase in system performance. Unfortunately, it is clear now that is not the case. With that said though, here's some performance...
Why does RHEL (and its derivatives) use such an old kernel? It uses 2.6.32-xxx, which seems old to me. How do they support newer hardware with that kernel? As far as I know these kind of distributions do run on fairly modern hardware.
Hello,
recently I uprgaded Ubuntu from 3.2.0-29 to 3.2.0-30 and the boot process fails shortly after the Ubunu logo shows up. Up to two dots below marking the progress show up and then it hangs. However if I boot with the older 3.2.0-29 Kernel it still works.
Is it better to downgrade again and wait for newer versions where the problem may be solved. If so, how to downgrade?
