[Valtam]

4.15 Linux Lite Kernel is now available for 32 & 64bit machines.

These kernels are built for:

- Series 2.x (beryl/trusty)
- Series 3.x (citrine/xenial)

See here for an overview of what's new - https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=a...ures&num=1

Open a terminal and do:

Code:

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install linux-headers-linuxlite-4.15.0 linux-image-linuxlite-4.15.0 -y

NB: The linux-firmware-image is no longer going to be built. See here for more information - https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit...7bb1ef7769

If you prefer the point-and-click option, go to Menu, System, Lite Tweaks and select Kernel Installer.



NOTE: If you use proprietary drivers, this kernel may break functionality with those drivers. If you have proprietary drivers installed and you still decide to go ahead with this kernel install, you should be competent in repairing your drivers. If you aren't, DO NOT install this kernel.

IMPORTANT: Only install this kernel if you need it or if you are adept at getting out of trouble from a TTY.
