Others will have to do another kernel release to include the more recent fixes. [01:24] there's an odd clause in that insights blogpost though [01:24] "Ubuntu users of the 64-bit x86 architecture (aka, amd64) can expect updated kernels by the original January 9, 2018 coordinated release date, and sooner if possible. " [01:25] does it not affect 32-bit, or...? [01:32] I've not seen anything in the papers or the patches that suggests x86 32-bit isn't affected. I suspect that sentence is a focused oversight [01:34] yeah, I hadn't seen anything either. it is odd. [01:34] *shrug* will just wait and see what they come out with [05:50] good morning to all [05:50] heya :) [05:50] hey daftykins [05:51] !kpti [05:51] Spectre and Meltdown are security issues that affect most processors, mitigated by a set of Linux kernel patches named KPTI. | General info: https://spectreattack.com/ | Ubuntu (and flavors) info: http://ubottu.com/y/ubukpti/ | An Ubuntu Security Notice will be released when updates are available, subscribe at https://usn.ubuntu.com/usn/ [05:51] any news yet?
