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.

What is the next LTS kernel and when is it slated for release? 24.04-ish?

They are usually released at the end of the year.

  • 6.1 - 2022-12-11
  • 5.15 - 2021-10-31
  • 5.10 - 2020-12-13
  • 5.4 - 2019-11-24
  • 4.19 - 2018-10-22
  • 4.14 - 2017-11-12

But when you say "24.04" it sounds like you are asking when the next Ubuntu LTS is released?
