Request MX19 - XanMod Kernel [closed]

[elgrande71]

Please, is it possible to provide with XanMod Kernel as a package for MXLinux 19 ?
XanMod is a general-purpose Linux kernel distribution with custom settings and new features. Built to provide a stable, responsive and smooth desktop experience.
https://xanmod.org/
Supports all recent 64-bit versions of Debian and Ubuntu-based systems
Thank you

Xanmod has 5 different branches so may be a tricky one to add without confusion. It's quite easy to add their repository if you need it.
It has been discussed (can't recall if here or elsewhere) that Liquorix is likely preferable for things like media production unless you really need the RT version for a CNC router or something. Liquorix is in MXPI.
I did try XanMod recently but found no advantage (and several disadvantages) so went back to Liquorix.

I thought about lts and stable branch for packaging .
About disadvantages with a XanMod kernel, could you give me more information about these ?

IIRC, Liquorix has better config for low latency audio production. It was a couple of months ago I tried it so don't remember details.
Also one of the more knowledgable posters at Debian forums has a pretty low opinion - http://forums.debian.net/viewtopic.php? ... od#p725762

Ok I see . I stay with the Liquorix one which gives me a good hardware support for my AMD Ryzen 3 3200G .
