Want to install the latest Linux Kernel 6.5? It’s there in your Ubuntu 22.04 system repository!<\/p>\n

Linux Kernel 6.5 was released a week ago with exciting new features, including initial USB4 v2, MIDI 2.0 support, much faster parallel direct I\/O overwrite on EXT4, Acer Aspire 1 Arm laptop, Sony Xperia M4 Aqua phone, open-source driver support for Lenovo ThinkPad X13s laptop, enhanced load balancing for Intel hybrid CPUs, Intel SoundWire ACE2.x support, and more.<\/p>\n

Ubuntu built the Kernel package in the Mainline PPA<\/a>, which sadly only installs in Ubuntu 23.10 so far due to dependency issue.<\/p>\n

Now, for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS, Linux 6.5 has been made into the main repository as OEM Kernel!<\/p>\n

What is OEM Kernel<\/h3>\n

Ubuntu LTS has a few different Kernel series. They include GA Kernel that is default in first stable release, HWE Kernel (6.2 at the moment) backported from newer Ubuntu short-term releases and default in point release (e.g., Ubuntu 22.04.1, 22.04.2).<\/p>\n

The OEM Kernel is an Ubuntu derivative kernel, specifically for use in OEM projects.<\/p>\n

It is a staging Kernel series with shorter life cycle. It will get rolled off to the next HWE kernel once all the fixes have been forward-ported. Meaning, Linux 6.5 will probably be the default in next Ubuntu 22.04.4.<\/p>\n

The OEM Kernel is made and officially supported by Ubuntu Team. It’s SAFE to run in any machine according to the Wiki page<\/a>.<\/b><\/p>\n

How to Install OEM Kernel 6.5 in Ubuntu 22.04<\/h3>\n
