@ Joseph Salisbury I am afraid to do so,since it is my personal desktop machine,Will there are any consequences while installing latest upstream kernel. How can i go back to current kernel after testing it with latest one if there are any issues. is it like we can uninstall upstream kernal after testing as per the section "Uninstalling upstream kernels".
I have followed the steps till applying patches (upto 0006-configs- based-on-Ubuntu-4.10.0-6.8.patch) but bit hesitant to do the final step. Below is my current kernel images: dpkg --list | grep "linux-image" rc linux-image-4.4.0-62-generic 4.4.0-62.83 amd64 Linux kernel image for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-image-4.4.0-63-generic 4.4.0-63.84 amd64 Linux kernel image for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-image-4.4.0-64-generic 4.4.0-64.85 amd64 Linux kernel image for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP rc linux-image-extra-4.4.0-62-generic 4.4.0-62.83 amd64 Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-image-extra-4.4.0-63-generic 4.4.0-63.84 amd64 Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-image-extra-4.4.0-64-generic 4.4.0-64.85 amd64 Linux kernel extra modules for version 4.4.0 on 64 bit x86 SMP ii linux-image-generic 4.4.0.64.68 amd64 Generic Linux kernel image -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1666365 Title: Desktop Effects were Restarting due to graphcal reset in Kubuntu 16:04 Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Desktop effects got hung intermittently while browsing videos in browser.
