| alkisg | Hi, linux-hwe-generic doesn't exist in trusty. Is there any way to specify that "in all my Ubuntu LTS installations, I always want the newest hwe stack" ? | 04:44 |

| mlankhorst | alkisg: no because switching between hwe stacks is a manual process | 09:38 |
| mlankhorst | you can switch the kernel, but you would need to switch xorg-server too | 09:38 |
| alkisg | mlankhorst: so what does linux-hwe-generic stand for? | 09:38 |
| alkisg | When it's to be used? | 09:38 |
| alkisg | E.g. what would happen if I installed that back in 12.04.2? It would install lts-quantal? | 09:39 |
| mlankhorst | no idea.. try to find out I guess. :P | 09:39 |
| mlankhorst | i guess it might be just kernel | 09:39 |
| alkisg | hwe is just about kernel, yes, but I'm not sure when to use it | 09:39 |
| mlankhorst | seems to be kernel only | 09:39 |
| mlankhorst | there's no hwe stack for utopic yet, so I guess that's why that package does not exist yet | 09:40 |
| alkisg | It would be nice for it to exist for documentation purposes though | 09:42 |
| alkisg | linux-hwe-generic depends on linux-image-hwe-generic | 09:43 |
| alkisg | linux-image-hwe-generic depends on linux-image-generic-lts-trusty | 09:43 |
| alkisg | ...since it's "depends" and not "recommends" or something, I really wonder how that will work with point releases... | 09:43 |
| alkisg | Or maybe hwe is only for the next lts kernel...? | 09:43 |
| alkisg | And not for point releases? | 09:44 |
| mlankhorst | theres no lts kernel for trusty yet | 10:44 |
