I'm just trying zen kernel 5.2.13 zen1 (manually compiled) and it seems to be working ok.
I don't know if this is included in the liquorix ppa
I'm not sure if liquorix carries the same patches.
If anyone doesn't know what futex/fsync patch is, it is an improvement of the esync implementation to better integrate to Proton and improve performance, some proton games have a huge benefit in terms of performance from that patch.
You might want to update because this is a newer kernel than the 5.0.20 at the valve ppa repo.
Some reason my Mesa and AMDVLK driver doesnt work with any newer Kernels above 5.0
Ubuntu 18.04.3
zen kernel only maintains 5.2, 5.3 and 5.1 branches.
i install Ubuntu 18.04 and some reason no Kernel Above 4.18/4.19 plays games properly, their is huge fps drops like 50% performance
Ubuntu 19.04 Works properly with any Kernel, but ubuntu 19 not working with some games
i used ukuu to install 4.18 just to check performance and it goes back up to normal
idk if i have to upgrade my llvm RADV idk i rather use Ubuntu 18, cause i can swap sessions to SteamOS for the Console look
if im install Kernel wrong can some one advice me on how to do it
it's a long term support kernel so it should be safe to use daily
just download the file that's named
linux-image-unsigned-4.19.75-041975-generic_4.19.75-041975.201909210733_amd64.deb
open a terminal go to where the file is located , probably you need to cd to Downloads folder like this
cd ~/Downloads
and then install it with this command
sudo dpkg -i --force-all linux-image-unsigned-4.19.75-041975-generic_4.19.75-041975.201909210733_amd64.deb
It would be useful to know what's you hardware maybe this is some regression affecting your hardware? not sure. I'm on polaris hardware and it's been more than three years since I had any regression.
Unfortunately the fsync patch hasn't been ported to older kernels. But esync should work.

They customize Linux for optimal desktop experience.
Once upon a time they had a wiki that explained everything. Unfortunately they lost it for ever and now nobody really knows. Since every information about the project is lost for ever one should wonder how it is still going.
thanks for the clarification so zen 5.2.13 and upwards should have the patch. Hopefully zen 5.3.2 will carry it too.
