What kernel do you use
Re: What kernel do you use
I get the same results as you, different kernels behave differently. My rule of thumb is the highest LTS kernel with the best EOL date available (in repos) for my 3 installed distros, without insane backporting, etc. Newer, stable and well tested kernels have better bug fixes and hardware compatibility. The highest version isn't always the best, anything above long-term is beta to me.bester69 wrote:I think differents versions's kernel behave differente in each computer, or, at least i felt that way,
in my case, i recentlly tried 4.7 bpo debian's kernel and 4.8 ubuntu's kernel, and i fell they performance worse than ubuntu's 4.7.6,
this last kernel --> 4.7.6 ubuntu's its working great in my computer, i fell it quicker and smoother, i tried two times others kernel (4.7bpo and 4. to see if it was placebo, and i feel they both dont performance as well as 4.7.6 ubuntu's in my laptop, so its kind of extrange, my final conclusion is that every kernel behave different in the same computer.
Now, im pretty happy with kernel's ubuntu 4.7.6
ill try 4.9 when it comes to see if it give me some gain, and i can keep moving onCode: Select all

,At least it has to be with performance or drivers compatibilities i dont understand your point!.
Old kernels must be for old computers,
You can try even you built 4.7,4.8,4.9++ kernel & headers it won't work with virtualbox.
Even you run /etc/init.d/vboxdrv setup it's not gonna work.
Re: What kernel do you use
My experience with Virtualbox, is that is better to install from official page, that package has kernel embedded headers or so, so you dont't need dkms packages, I usually update virtualbox with no problem for any kernel. I got into troubles when i try virtualbox from repositories..Innovate wrote:Virtualbox linux 3.16 kernel headers support.bester69 wrote:The question is, what gain do you get by using 3.16 kernel insteed of newers or latest kernel?

hehehe, now i've ubuntu's virtualbox package installed as i installed ubuntu's kernel 4.7.6 in stretch
i repeat, there is no point in using 3.16 kernel unless you're kind of paranoic looking for superstable system, you have issues driver or, your computer performance better with that old kernel.
but for what i see in regular posts, i think debian's users community are kind of paranoic stable stand for.. which i respect eh

Re: What kernel do you use
Just as I planned you'd answer by using FrankenDebian method by mixing Linux 4.7-4.8 kernel from Ubuntu repo.
If I didn't answer that ironic truth. You'll never understand what's Debian communities thinking.
You'll end up "Why?! Why!? Why!? you do still use 3.16 it's ridiculious. I don't get you guys Debianies" like you always did forever.
Everything that you've done up until now are according to my plan.
All your cocky statement I've made you answer like this on purpose.
Let's see what will Debian communities respond with your mixing Linux 4.7-4.8 on Debian with Ubuntu repo
Will they have better reason to stick with 3.16 than that or they're going to agree with your FrankenDebian method.
I'll looking forward to it.

Re: What kernel do you use
Oh my, I'm glad I read this news about 4.8
http://www.theregister.co.uk/2016/10/05 ... _linux_48/
I'll just skipped to 4.9 or 5.0 when it comes or stay back on 3.16, 4.7

Re: What kernel do you use
First of all, 4.8.1. was released immediately thereafter effectively removing "buggy crap". It is now at 4.8.3 and likely much more stable.Innovate wrote:Oh my, I'm glad I read this news about 4.8

Second, the next kernel after 4.9 is 4.10.https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v4.x/ChangeLog-4.8.1 wrote:commit 0b09f2d43201472327b80f9978cd768b46353a34
Author: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>

Using BUG_ON() as an assert() is _never_ acceptable
commit 21f54ddae449f4bdd9f1498124901d67202243d9 upstream.
That just generally kills the machine, and makes debugging only much
harder, since the traces may long be gone.
Debugging by assert() is a disease. Don't do it. If you can continue,
you're much better off doing so with a live machine where you have a
much higher chance that the report actually makes it to the system logs,
rather than result in a machine that is just completely dead.
The only valid situation for BUG_ON() is when continuing is not an
option, because there is massive corruption. But if you are just
verifying that something is true, you warn about your broken assumptions
(preferably just once), and limp on.

Re: What kernel do you use
OK, I see.
I'm redoing the Liquorix Kernel right now in the OBS because I added the patch to fix the Cow problem (CVE-2016-5195), so it'll take an hour or two. We're also going to have to add it to any unmaintained backports kernel, such as the 4.2 one in MX 15 x64.

Re: What kernel do you use
I found out why the video card fan idles slightly faster in newer kernels compared to older kernels...found this in boot.log/dmesg...
So the video card chip isn't racing at all, it's just the cooling fan got a little idle speed bump. Was wondering why the Radeon temperature is slightly lower at idle than older kernels. Well I'll be a monkey's uncle. FYI, after they system is up for a little while, the fan settles down somewhat.
