[05:58] <xnox> slangasek: 3.13.0-4-generic is known to be buggy in a few ways. -1 or -5 are all fixed.
[06:08] <pvl1> if im going to compile a custom kernel, should i use the ubuntu kernel's instead of kernel.orgs?
[12:06] <apw> jarkko_, "hard patching" assuming you mean "is every ubuntu kernel patched relative to its mainline equivalent" then that is a yes
[12:07] <jarkko_> what those patches usually are? fixes or drivers?
[12:07] <apw> jarkko_, and we use ufw by default (for network security) which uses a simple "DENY everything EXCEPT" framework using iptables at the kernel level
[12:07] <apw> jarkko_, fixes which arn't yet upstream yet, extra drivers not yet upstream, that is about it, plus our own configs
[12:19] <slangasek> xnox: yah, that's what rtg tells me
