From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

For what it's worth, even if you're sticking to a lts release like 24.04, a 6.14 kernel is a very worthwhile thing to do. I found substantial reduction in load average and CPU time wasted in wait state on my busier servers.

Did you compile the kernel by yourself, or used Mainline to install?
