I installed updates to my 14.04 system about once a week, including any
new kernel versions that came along (I always did "apt-get dist-
upgrade"). In other words, there wasn't really one specific kernel
version that I was using.
My dad's computer, which has pretty much the same hardware as mine (same
model motherboard and CPU, I even bought the hardware for both computers
at the same time), is still running 14.04 ("Ubuntu 14.04.5 LTS",
according to the 'lsb_release' command). The kernel version that it
currently reports (with 'uname -a') is:
Linux wkst0 3.13.0-93-generic #140-Ubuntu SMP Mon Jul 18 21:21:05 UTC
2016 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
As far as I can remember, his computer has been having the issue ever
since I first installed 14.04 on it: if there are no USB media present
upon shutdown, then the computer will successfully power off, but if any
USB medium is still connected, then it will reboot.
I refrained from upgrading his computer to 16.04 because under that
release, the computer will reboot, instead of powering off, even without
any USB media present. Now that I have at least a workaround for this
issue, I was considering upgrading his computer after all, but I hadn't
gotten around to it just yet.
