3. New Image
New image: Ubuntu 14.04.2
The point release of Ubuntu 14.04.2 again includes an LTS Hardware EnablementStack (HWE) for better support of new hardware in the Ubuntu LTS release.
This includes a more recent kernel (3.16) and the X.org stack from Ubuntu 14.10. Clients who would like to use the HWE stack can install this via APT:
apt-get install --install-recommends linux-generic-lts-utopic

Please note that support for Ubuntu 14.10 expires three months after the release of Ubuntu 15.04. After this, a switch to the kernel/X.org stack of 15.04 is necessary with the same nine-month support period to January 2016.
