Davidlohr's answer is correct: This is not an "Ubuntu kernel". 3.13.y.z is an "extended stable" kernel which follows the same rules as the kernel.org official stable kernels. It contains no Ubuntu-specific patches, and supports the same arch's as mainline. More details about this and the other Canonical-funded-and-hosted "extended stable" kernel versions is available here: > For more information about the 3.13.y.z tree, see > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/ExtendedStable -Kamal -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
