Linux zen kernel....

The Linux zen kernel is a kernel replacement built using the best configuration and kernel sources for use on everyday systems. I Know that installing a custom kernel might not be for everyone, but at some point you may want to try getting better performance when gaming or performing multimedia tasks & this might be a great option to look into.

To install this kernel on Ubuntu based systems you only need to do three things.

  1. Add the ppa & update your sources….
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:damentz/liquorix && sudo apt-get update
  1. Install the meta-packages….
sudo apt-get install linux-image-liquorix-amd64 linux-headers-liquorix-amd64
  1. Reboot and start using the zen kernel….

On arch based oses the zen kernel is available within the repos. There’s also packages available for almost any other Linux distro like slackware, gentoo, opensuse or fedora (just to name a few).
