Hi, not to mention the war again but you do have a alternative (stream) and the fabled kernel-ml which has been working fine in production servers according to my experiences (fleet of over 400 servers virtual and physical). And assuming you are talking about CentOS 8.x there are several

Thanks Johnny. And to Joshua -- my hardware is NOT REAL recent. This said, I WAS HAVING a lot of thermal issues in the past few months. After tweaking  things in my BIOS, updating my BIOS and uninstalling a fair amount of services I wasn't using that were doing nothing but using up cycles,

That's great Kay, thanks for the info! Question, if you don't mind my asking: how new is your hardware? The reason I ask is that certain newer Intel processors (11th generation mobile "Tiger Lake" i5 and i7) have a thermal issue where it's throttled down to 400MHz in certain heavy loads. There

I'm not sure how much freedom you have with your setup, but you could always try to use the elrepo-ml or elrepo-lt kernels. The elrepo-ml kernel follows the published version pretty closely, so for example right now I'm running 5.17.3 on my el8 boxes. The newer kernels solve a lot of hardware

Hello folks -- Is there any write up for the most recent update to kernel 4.18.0-373 specifically with respect to sound setup or anything really? I had been using an "alpha" driver for my Intel sound that was appended to my boot line up until this latest. This not only did not work but caused
