The latest version of the stable Linux kernel 3.10.17 LTS has been announced by Greg Kroah-Hartman, but it is a little smaller than anticipated.

This branch of the Linux kernel has been deemed as LTS (long term support), which means that it’s going to get a lot more updates.

“I'm announcing the release of the 3.10.17 kernel. All users of the 3.10. kernel series must upgrade.

“The updated 3.10.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-3.10.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git;a=summary,” Greg Kroah-Hartman said in the email announcement.

If you are using any of the versions released until now in the Linux kernel 3.10.x branch, you should update to the newest one as soon as possible.

A complete list of commits in this branch of the kernel can be found in the official announcement. Download Linux kernel 3.10.17 right now from Softpedia.
