The AHS Update package will bring in the latest Liquorix kernel which would be 6.12.17-1
that's what i thought

thanks again :)
You CAN specify which liquorix kernel you want to run, including version! You do NOT have to run the latest (ie 6.15.x version) If you go to the enabled tab and search for Liquorix you will find just about every 'last version' of each kernel, and 6.12 still has ALL of the minor versions as well. )

I run liquorix, but using the Enabled Repos tab I *pin* my version to a specific one until I have tested the next version I am going to run.
ok, thanks, but now you're forcing me to show my ignorance! how do i pin my version to a specific one?

I do that the easy way of:

- Run mx package installer
- Search for liquorix
- Change to the Enabled repos tab
- Select TWO things for the liquorix kernel you want:
-- Image
-- Headers
- I always check the "Also Install 'Recommended Packages" as well
- Click install.

This method installs a specific version and you dont get auto updated!

Example: if you wanted the 6.12.10 version for amd64 (, then you should check:
linux-headers-6.12.10-1-liquorix-amd64
linux-image-6.12.10-1-liquorix-amd64

Once installed and you reboot, your QSI should show your running this kernel. If not, and it installed properly, then goto MX Boot options and specifically choose it, then reboot.

Where this varies: If you chose Liquorix 6.12 from the Popular Applications kernels section, then that is a Meta package, which means each new minor version you get auto updated - until there are no more minor versions.

ie so i fyou installed at the popular applications - kernels tab.. then the current 6.12 liquorix version would have kept updating you until 6.12.17 which I believe is the most current 6.12 kernel .
