Kernel for Meltdown/Spectre
Posted: Sun Jan 14, 2018 3:40 pm
Any suggestions on a working kernel/video driver combo with meltdown patches?
I'm using Linux Mint 17.3 Rosa Xfce (had upgraded from 17.1) with the recommended 3.16.0-38 kernel and fglrx driver. Linuxmint.com says to use 3.13.0-139 but with that I lose the cpu temp sensor. I also tried 4.4.0-109 which brings back the cpu sensor, but there are serious lags, like a second or two switching windows (Alt-Tab). I only tried either kernel for a short time so I don't know if there are other problems.
Or should I try upgrading to Mint 18.3?
Edit: oh, I have the fitlet iA10
