Hi,Firstly thanks to everyone for their time and effort in coming up with and maintaining these fantastic alternatives to Windows, its very much appreciated. I have been using Ubuntu and other Linux based operating systems for number of years now, and will never return to Windows....no way ! My knowledge of Linux is quite limited, I am more of a open the box and plug and play type user ( maybe I should learn more ) ! I write to you in the hope that you can explain to me ( in plain English please ) the unstable issue in the enclosed attachment C Library GNU C Library version ( Ubuntu GLIBC 2.24-3 Ubuntu 2 ) 2.24 ( unstable ) I suppose my question is ..if this is unstable why is it been released as part of the download for the current version of Ubuntu ?
Sincere thanks for your time. Kind regards Mike.Title: HardInfo (0.5.1) System Report
