List of Ubuntu Versions with Corresponding Linux Kernel Version












60















Is there a list of Ubuntu versions with default corresponding Linux kernel versions somewhere?



I would specifically like to know the most recent version of Ubuntu that still used Linux Kernel 2.x.










share|improve this question























  • I landed here looking for kernel versions in point releases, which wasn't in the answers below. This link was helpful: wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Support It gives major and point releases, their kernel version and support schedule, for fairly modern releases. I didn't add as answer because it doesn't really help cross-referencing kernel 2.x, as OP wanted, but it might help others like me that land here just looking for kernel versions in point releases.

      Thank you for including the "or newer" comments. It seem there is not always a 1:1 correlation between Ubuntu version and Linux kernel major version. I recently obtained a Trusty Tahr ISO via ubuntu.com and installed it into a VM. The kernel version was 4.2. I believe this corresponds to the "trusty linux-lts-wily" table at people.canonical.com/~kernel/info/kernel-version-map.html and this: launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/… At the same time I have a laptop with Trusty Tahr whose kernel version is 3.19 (still receiving updates).

    Take a look at this version table or this directory listing. I think that is what you are interested in.

              Thank you for including the "or newer" comments. It seem there is not always a 1:1 correlation between Ubuntu version and Linux kernel major version. I recently obtained a Trusty Tahr ISO via ubuntu.com and installed it into a VM. The kernel version was 4.2. I believe this corresponds to the "trusty linux-lts-wily" table at people.canonical.com/~kernel/info/kernel-version-map.html and this: launchpad.net/ubuntu/trusty/+package/… At the same time I have a laptop with Trusty Tahr whose kernel version is 3.19 (still receiving updates).
