I have a life, and its a chore to reboot the 3 boxes after every upgrade. It runs my phones, my TV, my house security, and my mail and webserver and booting them all is a PIA. If it is raining security holes with every kernel upgrade, that is a big problem, and that is before all these appliances. Advice? Who am I to give advice? On the face of it, I would say they need to harden the kernel base release. But I am not qualified to give anyone advice. If a kernel can't be reasonably secure in a 2 year period, as a consumer I can only be unhappy about it and a bit dismayed. But no one owes me anything. -- So many immigrant groups have swept through our town that Brooklyn, like Atlantis, reaches mythological proportions in the mind of the world - RI Safir 1998 http://www.mrbrklyn.com DRM is THEFT - We are the STAKEHOLDERS - RI Safir 2002 http://www.nylxs.com - Leadership Development in Free Software http://www2.mrbrklyn.com/resources - Unpublished Archive http://www.coinhangout.com - coins! http://www.brooklyn-living.com Being so tracked is for FARM ANIMALS and and extermination camps, but incompatible with living as a free human being. -RI Safir 2013 _______________________________________________ Kernelnewbies mailing list Kernelnewbies@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.kernelnewbies.org/mailman/listinfo/kernelnewbies
