Linux Kernel 3.17 Is Out With Plenty of New Features
================================================================================
Linus Torvalds has announced the latest stable release of the Linux kernel, version 3.17.
![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Tux-psd3894.jpg)
Announced in his typical [laissez-faire style][1] in a post on the Linux Kernel Mailing List Torvalds explained:
> “So the past week was fairly calm, and so I have no qualms about releasing 3.17 on the normal schedule (as opposed to the optimistic “maybe I can release it one week early” schedule that was not to be).”
Due to travel Linus says he wont start merging changes for Linux 3.18 just yet:
> “I now have travel coming up something I hoped to avoid when I was hoping for releasing early. Which means that while 3.17 is out, Im not going to be merging stuff very actively next week, and the week after that is LinuxCon EU…”
### Whats New In Linux 3.17? ###
As with every new release, Linux 3.17 sees the kernel loaded up on the latest improvements, hardware support, fixes and so on. These range from the bamboozling e.g., [memfd and file sealing patches][2] to the sort of things most of us appreciate, such as support for new hardware.
Below is a short list compiling some notable highlights of this release. Its by no means exhaustive.
- Microsoft Xbox One controller support (without vibration)
- Additional improvements to Sony SIXAXIS support
- Toshiba “Active Protection Sensor” support
- New ARM support includes Rockchip RK3288 and AllWinner A23 SoCs
- “Cross-thread filter setting” for secure computing facility
- Broadcom BCM7XXX-based board support (used in various set-top boxes)
- Enhanced AMD Radeon R9 290 support
- Misc. Nouveau driver improvements, including Kepler GPU fixes
- Audio support includes Wildcatpoint Audio DSP on Intel Broadwell Ultrabooks.
### Installing Linux 3.17 on Ubuntu ###
Although classed as stable there is, at present, little need for most of us to “have it now”.
But if youre impatient and — **more importantly** — skilled enough to handle issues resulting from it, you can install Linux 3.17 in Ubuntu 14.10 by installing the appropriate set of packages for your system from the mainline kernel archive maintained by Canonical.
**Do not attempt to install anything from this link unless you know what youre doing.**

Linux Kernel 3.17 带来了很多新特性
================================================================================
Linus Torvalds已经发布了最新的稳定版内核3.17。
![](http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2011/07/Tux-psd3894.jpg)
Torvalds以他典型的[放任式][1]的口吻在Linux内核邮件列表中解释说
> “过去的一周很平静我对3.17的如期发布没有疑虑(相对于乐观的“我应该早一周发布么”的计划而言)。”
由于假期Linux说他还没有开始合并3.18的改变:
>“我马上要去旅行了- 在我期盼早点发布的时候我希望避免一些事情。这意味着在3.17发布后我不会在下周非常活跃地合并新的东西并且下下周是LinuxCon EU”
### Linux 3.17有哪些新的? ###
最为一个新的发布Linux 3.17 加入了最新的改进,硬件支持,修复等等。范围从有迷惑性的 - 比如:[memfd 和 文件密封补丁][2] - 到大多数人感兴趣的,比如最新硬件的支持。
下面是这次发布的一些亮点的列表,但她们并不详尽。
- Microsoft Xbox One 控制器支持 (没有震动)
- 额外的Sony SIXAXIS支持改进
- 东芝 “Active Protection Sensor” 支持
- 新的包括Rockchip RK3288和AllWinner A23 SoC的ARM芯片支持
- 安全计算设备上的“跨线程过滤设置”
- 基于Broadcom BCM7XXX板卡的支持用在不同的机顶盒上
- 增强的AMD Radeon R9 290支持
- Nouveau 驱动改进包括Kepler GPU修复
- 包含Intel Broadwell超级本上的Wildcatpoint Audio DSP音频支持
### 在Ubuntu上安装 Linux 3.17 ###
虽然被列为稳定版,但是目前对于大多数人而言只有很少的功能需要我们“现在去安装”。
但是如果你很耐心- **更重要的是**-有足够的技能去处理从中导致的问题你可以通过在由Canonical维护的主线内核存档中安装一系列合适的包来在你的Ubuntu 14.10中安装Linux 3.17
**除非你知道你正在做什么,不要尝试从下面的链接中安装任何东西。**
