Effective on 6.18 release date, this project will be retired and no longer maintained. Due to upstream being perfectly usable, having all the patches and the extras in this kernel not resulting in a significant performance improvement, I have made the decision to sundown the project. This will free up some resources on my end and make more time for other things.

I recommend switching to either the upstream kernel or one of the other custom kernels like Zen.

This package will be flagged out of date soon.

Thanks to everyone for your support and for using the kernel.

The prebuilt kernel is built using Clang/LLVM.

The linux-nitrous binary package can be installed by adding following lines to your /etc/pacman.conf:

[linux-nitrous]
Server = https://github.com/xdevs23/linux-nitrous/releases/latest/download/

Then you can install the package using your AUR helper or pacman (e. g. sudo pacman -Syu linux-nitrous linux-nitrous-headers)

You probably need to add the keys before being able to install my packages:

sudo pacman-key --recv-keys E52F66792B423413EA5F8B3BBCAFC8F93FFA4C23
sudo pacman-key --lsign-key E52F66792B423413EA5F8B3BBCAFC8F93FFA4C23

Can you please include in this kernel the new Intel Xe graphics driver? It was added in 6.8 .

@fmc000 Yes, I have enabled it in the configs. The next release will include it.

@Korialo As you already mentioned, the configs are enabled. I didn't see the edit until now. Perhaps you need to add the elan_i2c module to your mkinitcpio.conf in MODULES so that it gets loaded early?

superboringdev commented on 2023-07-24 15:02 (UTC)

@Korialo Yes, that's the same thing you asked for. As I said, I'll enable the configs soon.

Korialo commented on 2023-07-24 14:04 (UTC)

@superboringdev thank you for your quick reply, also I found this in the Linux-Clear github https://github.com/clearlinux/distribution/issues/2252 maybe related?

superboringdev commented on 2023-07-24 13:56 (UTC)

@Korialo sure, I'll enable MOUSE_PS2_ELANTECH_SMBUS and MOUSE_ELAN_I2C_SMBUS in the next release.

Korialo commented on 2023-07-24 13:51 (UTC) (edited on 2023-07-24 13:59 (UTC) by Korialo)

Can you enable this:

psmouse serio1: elantech: The touchpad can support a better bus than the too old PS/2 protocol. Make sure MOUSE_PS2_ELANTECH_SMBUS and MOUSE_ELAN_I2C_SMBUS are enabled to get a better touchpad experience.

since I can't see any option to do it in PKGBUILD, as in a way to mo Kconfig, ...etc. Thanks.

Edit: NVM, I checked the .config both are enabled, by default. I wonder why this message appears in my journal.
