| highno | <reply> A higher version number does not mean that it's better. Especially with packages such as the linux kernel. The packages in the Ubuntu repositories are stable and will work fine. You should have a better reason than "newer" when considering compiling from source or using 3rd party repos. | Added by PriceChild Date: 2007-07-27 20:06:24 Last edited by PriceChild Date: 2007-07-27 20:06:36 Requested 89 times |

| hotornot | <reply> We tend to strongly discourage hot-or-not style discussions about women, as they're known to discourage female geeks from participating in communities. Female participation in geek communities is really low (less than 2% on average :( ), so lets not discourage any more!
