[Flames_in_Paradise <1214462@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This is probably one of the very last bugs I'm reporting to Ubuntu.
Release-Notes 12.04/12.04.1/12.04.2 get overwritten... One can only
reconstruct it via history.

AND a camouflaged PAE-Kernel ...

Wonder how the other big distros handle the farewell to the 32-Bit Non-
PAE Kernel. From Fedora I 've read they at least establish the live CD
with a non PAE-Kernel.

Can't attach log-iles since whoopsie can't handle stuff like this.

Title:
  Kernel Description doesn't explain its a PAE-Kernel _ since 3.4.0.1.1
  _ Linus would not smile _.

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Dear Developers and maintainers,

  trying not to make a big fuzz about it:

  Let me just quote
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/baltix/+bug/930447/comments/97 from
  2012-06-05 (referencing the release-notes on 12.04.2):

  > The non-PAE version of the Linux kernel will be dropped completely
  > following the 12.04 release.

  Pls correct me and mark as invalid, if Ubuntu doesn't have to follow
  naming conventions given on the Linux-Kernel.

  Trying to find appropiate information in the package change-log:

  linux-meta (3.4.0.1.1) quantal; urgency=low

    * Open Quantal Quetzal 12.10
    * Temporarily disable LBM
    * Remove non-PAE i386 references

   -- mail adress hidden@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>  Wed, 02 May 2012 06:21:45 -0700

  Pls clarify this and correct Ubuntus Kernel-naming on i386 package if
  appropriate.If the leftovers in the package are PAE, the package-names
  are meant to say so Clear & Loud.

  Personally I think Linus wouldn't smile, even though if I thought the
  index-finger to Nvidia was a bit to rough. Personally I think this bug
  has security-potential.

  Thanks for helping to make Ubuntu better every day.
