Re: Unknown source of kernel lock-ups?

There are Windows bugs that have been there since Windows 3.1 even though the thing has been rewritten from the gound up 4 times. Production users don't use the latest kernels, they use mature kernels from months or even years ago. About the only Linux version using a 3.17 kernel at this point is Fedora 21, and they are at 3.17.6. Not sure we need a minor upgrade every few weeks. letting them simmer a little might make for a better kernel....
