Greg Kroah-Hartman has announced the immediate availability for download of Linux kernel 3.4.50 LTS (long-term support).

Linux kernel 3.4.50 comes with just a small number of improvements and changes, just like the previous version.

Highlights of Linux kernel 3.4.50 LTS:

• VBT modes are now preferred for SVDO-LVDS over EDID (drm/i915); • PowerSave is now disabled by default (ath9k); • migrate_entry_wait_huge() has been added (mm); • A stack overflow crash has been fixed in resume_kernel (powerpc).

“I'm announcing the release of the 3.4.50 kernel. All users of the 3.4 kernel series must upgrade.”

“The updated 3.4.y git tree can be found at: git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git linux-3.4.y and can be browsed at the normal kernel.org git web browser: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-stable.git,” said Greg Kroah-Hartman in the email announcement.

Users of the Linux kernel 3.4.x branch are urged to update to the new version as soon as possible in order to fix any issues.
