Ukuu – The Kernel Upgrade Utility

📅 September 7, 2019
If you are running an Ubuntu-derived distribution, you can always download the latest mainline kernel from kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa to see what is available and try it out. However, this requires a manual visit to the page.

Wouldn’t it be easier to have a program check on your behalf and notify you if a new kernel release is available? If you choose to upgrade the kernel, how about a friendly GUI to guide you through the process?

That is exactly what Ukuu does, and it can make kernel updates easier than before.
