KernelCheck is a a program that automatically compiles and installs the latest Kernel for Debian based Linux distributions (Debian, Ubuntu, Mint, etc.). The program also allows for automatic installation of proprietary video drivers via EnvyNG.

A kernel is the base of any operating system – in our case, the Linux operating system. KernelCheck will fetch the latest information from http://www.kernel.org, which hosts the source packages for the Linux kernel, and ask the user which one they would like to compile into a .deb package (with the option of installing the kernel after the compilation).

Features

• Fetch latest kernel information (mature kernel, mature kernel patch, stable
development prepatch)
• Download and compile any 2.6 kernel into a .deb package
• Auto-fix for ALSA sound in new kernels
• Auto-optimize new kernel
• Option to configure kernel options manually
• Option to install the nVidia kernel module/driver on reboot
• Option to reconfigure the X server
• Custom kernel patching
• Multiple CPU jobs for faster compilation
