Hello Liquorix creator and forum users.
Thanks for reading my topic.
I have used for an long time kernel updates for Ubuntu LTS since 20.04.
I always had installed the kernel updates from Tuxinvader from link below
https://launchpad.net/~tuxinvader/+archive/ubuntu/lts-mainline
However not more updates are being done in Tuxinvader's PPA.

Ubuntu not update the kernel version for LTS. Only update the kernel for current versions.
Ubuntu mainline kernel are available, but not are signed being for test doing problems for some softwares.

I have tested your Liquorix current version in Ubuntu 24.04.
Really the OS are more faster. I only see an issue with ZRAM not being totally used, but not understand if was done an OOM killer in any software.
Liquorix kernel not has cpu power profile power saver so is good only for high processing softwares and not for office and internet usage.

I not see an solution for install kernel generic current version in deb format file in Ubuntu.
Perhaps you can help me and other users too.
Please consider to release an Liquorix kernel generic version too.
You has all tools and skill to do it.
Perhaps another solution is Xanmod kernel, but I not has tested ... if have cpu profile power saver is good. Is as is similar as Liquorix too.

Thanks for making that amazing kernel.
Have an nice week for you and forums users.

Modern generic or stock kernels have always been available, you just need to run a modern rolling release distribution, or update your frozen pool distribution every 6 months to the latest release.

Ubuntu does supply a mainline PPA but for some reason it's not updating at the moment [1]. Canonical pays engineers to support this endeavor, so why would I do this by myself for free?

Liquorix will continue as is tracking latest stable with the alterations that makes it the kernel what it is, for power users that need certain performance characteristics. If you don't need those alterations, stock will do just fine.
