If 4.1.7 is working OK for you, stick with it. It's getting much less important now, as btrfs matures, to keep up with the _very_ latest. Purely on gut feeling about issues we see on IRC and here, 3.19 or later would be reasonable at the moment. Compared to, say, 3 or 4 years ago when running late -rc kernels was often preferable to running the latest stable, and things have improved quite a bit. :) Hugo. -- Hugo Mills | For months now, we have been making triumphant hugo@... carfax.org.uk | retreats before a demoralised enemy who is advancing http://carfax.org.uk/ | in utter disorder.
