Linux developers have released a new version of the kernel under the number 4.3.3. This version adds support for 4G-modem XS Stick W100-2, also fixed some bugs ext4 file system and problems with the latest processors Skylake.
Although it is not mandatory, but it is recommended to upgrade to the latest kernel version . It is important to take into account that 32 and 64-bit kernels are incompatible with each other.
It is important to note that some distributions jar upgrade packages already compiled kernel (example - Ubuntu / Linux Mint / elementary OS), for others they need to collect and compile from source. If you look from a user perspective, upgrading the kernel expands hardware support.
Also note that in addition to version 4.3.3 there is also a LTS-kernel version 4.1.15. Related Products :
