A task (i.e., a synonym for thread) is the minimal entity that Linux can schedule. However, it can also manage groups of threads, whole multi-threaded processes, and even all the processes of a given user. This design leads to the concept of schedulable entities, where tasks are grouped and managed by the scheduler as a whole.
Default runlevels are typically 3, 4, or 5. Lower runlevels are useful for maintenance or emergency repairs, since they usually offer no network services at all. The particular details of runlevel configuration differ widely among operating systems, and also among system administrators.

Ubuntu releases are also given code names, using an adjective and an animal with the same first letter – an alliteration, e.g., "Dapper Drake".With the exception of the first two releases, code names are in alphabetical order, and except for the first three releases, the first letters are sequential, allowing a quick determination of which release is newer.

On newer kernels (since 2.6.12 [7]), it is possible to have more fine-grained control over how the magic SysRq key can be used. [8] On these machines, the number written to /proc/sys/kernel/sysrq can be 0, 1, or a number greater than 1 which is a bitmask indicating which features to allow.
In order for a project schedule to be healthy, the following criteria must be met: [7] The schedule must be constantly updated (weekly works best). The EAC (Estimation at Completion) value must be equal to the baseline value. The remaining effort must be appropriately distributed among team members (taking vacations into consideration).
