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.

Image manifest



You can see which packages are pre-installed as mentioned at: How to get a list of preinstalled packages?



E.g., on Ubuntu 18.04, the packages are at: http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.manifest



Then, since I know that my kernel is located at: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic, to find the package name I did:



apt-file search /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic


which gave:



linux-image-4.4.0-141-generic: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic


So I just search for linux-image- in the .manifest and it gives:



linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic   4.15.0-29.31


so I conclude that Ubuntu 18.04 comes with Linux kernel 4.15.



packages.ubuntu.com



If you search for the package name on Google: linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic, it also leads us to the packages.ubuntu.com page: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic



Then, on the breadcrumb navigation in that page, there is a link to the "kernels" section: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/kernel/



And by searching for linux-image- in that page, we find several kernels that can be installed in the system.

      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).

    You can see which packages are pre-installed as mentioned at: How to get a list of preinstalled packages?



    E.g., on Ubuntu 18.04, the packages are at: http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.manifest



    Then, since I know that my kernel is located at: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic, to find the package name I did:



    apt-file search /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic


    which gave:



    linux-image-4.4.0-141-generic: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic


    So I just search for linux-image- in the .manifest and it gives:



    linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic   4.15.0-29.31


    so I conclude that Ubuntu 18.04 comes with Linux kernel 4.15.



    packages.ubuntu.com



    If you search for the package name on Google: linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic, it also leads us to the packages.ubuntu.com page: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic



    Then, on the breadcrumb navigation in that page, there is a link to the "kernels" section: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/kernel/



    And by searching for linux-image- in that page, we find several kernels that can be installed in the system.

        You can see which packages are pre-installed as mentioned at: How to get a list of preinstalled packages?



        E.g., on Ubuntu 18.04, the packages are at: http://releases.ubuntu.com/18.04/ubuntu-18.04.1-desktop-amd64.manifest



        Then, since I know that my kernel is located at: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic, to find the package name I did:



        apt-file search /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic


        which gave:



        linux-image-4.4.0-141-generic: /boot/vmlinuz-4.4.0-141-generic


        So I just search for linux-image- in the .manifest and it gives:



        linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic   4.15.0-29.31


        so I conclude that Ubuntu 18.04 comes with Linux kernel 4.15.



        packages.ubuntu.com



        If you search for the package name on Google: linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic, it also leads us to the packages.ubuntu.com page: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/linux-image-4.15.0-29-generic



        Then, on the breadcrumb navigation in that page, there is a link to the "kernels" section: https://packages.ubuntu.com/bionic/kernel/



        And by searching for linux-image- in that page, we find several kernels that can be installed in the system.
