@dedguy21 this repository (and its PKGBUILD) are used to build the binaries found in my custom repository
I do not intend to enable the used modules config by default as that is not what would resemble the binaries provided in my custom repository. I could try making it do that by checking for an environment variable in the PKGBUILD but I won't be doing it by default. The other thing is that I want the kernel to be able to build and run on pretty much any system that has a compatible CPU, regardless of the remaining hardware.

Effective on 6.18 release date, this project will be retired and no longer maintained.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This package will be flagged out of date soon.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:
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:
