[Bug 620755] [NEW] Lucid update to 2.6.32.19 stable

Thu Aug 19 22:47:32 UTC 2010

Public bug reported:

SRU Justification

Impact:
  The upstream process for stable tree updates is quite similar
  in scope to the Ubuntu SRU process, e.g., each patch has to
  demonstrably fix a bug, and each patch is vetted by upstream
  by originating either directly from Linus' tree or in a minimally
  backported form of that patch. The 2.6.32.17 upstream stable
  patch set is now available. It should be included in the Ubuntu
  kernel as well.
