=== richi235_ is now known as richi235
juergh@tomreyn, that page was modified today so IMO should be updated.07:36
juergh @apw https://people.canonical.com/~kernel/info/kernel-version-map.html is missing impish and jammy.07:37
juerghmaeh. apw ^^07:37
juerghhirsute looks outdated as well.07:38
juerghhrm. it all looks outdated. so either broken or no longer maintained.07:39
=== lan3y is now known as laney
=== gpiccoli_ is now known as gpicocli
=== gpicocli is now known as gpiccoli
crorafjuergh, it is still outdated as far as I see, the focal linux-hwe shows no kernels.15:48
juerghcroraf, yes, it's outdated but I have no visibility into what is generating that page. apw might have.16:23
apwjuergh, yeah that mapping is sad currently20:20
apwit is generated (for poorly explained reasons) by cve-autotriage, which i think moved and noone told me.20:21
apwcroraf, its on my list of things which are broken at the moment already21:44
apwcroraf, what are you using that list to get information wise?21:45
apw(i am wondering if really that is actually a sensible source or not)21:45
crorafI used tried to use that to find what is the latest kernel for my distribution so I update to it.21:47
crorafAnd before I wanted to see the actual mapping to the mainline kernel.21:47
apwrmadison is probabally a better conduit for the first one, but the second is the primary meaning of that file.21:48
crorafI did found this command though: sudo apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-hwe-20.0421:49
crorafWhich helped me acheive my goal.21:49
apwanyhow, basically that thing is getting the information from a poor source, and needs a major overhall, so its going to take a while to repair most likely21:49
croraf(yes, someone suggested rmadison, tom I think, but I didn't catch it)21:50
crorafBefore I needed that list when some of my drivers was not working, so I tried to find which distribution and kernel I have to install to match the mainline that has a fix.21:51
crorafWould also be nice to have like a roadmap of future kernels.21:53
croraf(with mapping to mainline kernel)21:53
crorafIs it recommended to install kernel packages as linux-image-generic or linux-image-generic-hwe-20.0423:33
crorafinstead of linux-image-5.4.0-90-generic or linux-image-5.11.0-40-generic?23:33
sarnoldthe linux-image-generic and similar packages are the way you get kernel upgrades23:34
croraflinux-image-generic is the default, right?23:37
sarnoldI'm not entirely sure what's the default on eg our desktop installer images any more. each of the big clouds has their own, different hardware packages have their own, etc etc23:43
