From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

When I shutdown my computer last night, it gave me this error message. It seems to be working fine but should I be considered? (sopuli.xyz)

I'm not sure what fixed it because I tried multiple things yesterday, but it shutdown normally last night.

A kernel update, if it's done right, shouldn't cause a panic. But not every distro does updates right.

If you know the old version and the new version then it might be useful to reach out to the Mint community and see if they're aware of issues like that.

I don't know what the previous version was but I'll still post about it to the forums. Thanks.
