This is pretty much the reality of using any out-of-tree kernel |
| 7 |
module, and especially the case for a proprietary module like the |
| 8 |
nvidia drivers. They're often not compatible across kernel 4.x |
| 9 |
version changes, and upstream projects often do not target mainline in |
| 10 |
their official releases. |

IMO you're better off still sticking to longterm, such as 4.14. |
| 13 |
Otherwise you're still dealing with stable dropping support for your |
| 14 |
version but the out-of-kernel module takes a week to support the new |
| 15 |
version. There isn't any overlap in linux stable support release |
| 16 |
across versions - they stop one and start the next. Only the longterm |
| 17 |
releases get overlapping support windows. |
