A set of shell scripts that automatically download, patch, and compile custom Linux kernels (version 5.4 and newer) with a selection of desktop and gaming-oriented patches. Patches and build options are configurable via a config file or an interactive install script, with support for Arch, DEB/RPM, Gentoo, and generic distributions.

Use cases

• build a custom linux kernel with gaming patches
• compile the linux kernel with a tuned cpu scheduler
• patch my kernel for better desktop responsiveness
• build a kernel optimized for zen CPUs
• install a custom kernel on arch linux
• reduce kernel build time with fewer modules
• try sched-ext schedulers on my kernel

When to choose

• you want a pre-patched kernel tuned for desktop or gaming workloads
• you need fine-grained control over kernel config, scheduler, and compiler options
• you run Arch or another supported distro and want automated kernel builds

When to avoid

• you just want a stock distro kernel without maintenance overhead
• you lack the disk space (20-25GB+) or time to compile kernels
• you need guaranteed stability and vendor support rather than experimental patches
