   I too have 5.1 installed on two machines. my main machine, that I am   
   writing on now is running fine. The other that had barely been   
   installed and was having a few applications run up was rebooted last   
   night and failed to complete the process. This morning I discovered   
   that it would do so under kernel 4.4.30! I do not have the time to   
   investigate further until later on.   
      
   One of this morning's updates was Firefox to version 45.5.1. I think   
   the packagers are doing a terrific job under difficult circumstances.
