### Install NVIDIA Driver

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Installs the NVIDIA proprietary driver version 595. Use this after adding the XanMod repository with the non-free component.

```bash
sudo apt update && sudo apt install nvidia-driver-595-open
```

--------------------------------

### Install XanMod Kernel from .deb Files

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Installs XanMod kernel image and headers directly from downloaded .deb files. This method is useful if you prefer not to add the APT repository. Ensure you have downloaded the correct .deb files.

```bash
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-*xanmod*.deb linux-headers-*xanmod*.deb
```

--------------------------------

### Update and Install XanMod Kernel

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Updates the package list and installs the XanMod kernel. Ensure you have registered the PGP key and added the repository first.

```bash
sudo apt update && sudo apt install linux-xanmod-x64v3
```

--------------------------------

### Add XanMod Repository with Non-Free Component

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Adds the XanMod APT repository, including the 'non-free' component, which is necessary for installing proprietary NVIDIA drivers. Ensure the PGP key is already registered.

```bash
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/xanmod-archive-keyring.gpg] http://deb.xanmod.org $(lsb_release -sc) main **non-free**" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xanmod-release.list
```

--------------------------------

### Install Minimal Dependencies for External Modules

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Installs essential dependencies required for building external kernel modules, such as DKMS. Use this if you plan to compile modules against the XanMod kernel.

```bash
sudo apt install --no-install-recommends dkms libelf-dev clang lld llvm
```

--------------------------------

### Add XanMod APT Repository

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Adds the XanMod APT repository to your system's sources.list.d. This command automatically detects your distribution's codename.

```bash
echo "deb [signed-by=/etc/apt/keyrings/xanmod-archive-keyring.gpg] http://deb.xanmod.org $(lsb_release -sc) main" | sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/xanmod-release.list
```

--------------------------------

### Register XanMod PGP Key

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Registers the PGP key for the XanMod APT repository to ensure package authenticity. This is the first step before adding the repository.

```bash
wget -qO - https://dl.xanmod.org/archive.key | sudo gpg --dearmor -vo /etc/apt/keyrings/xanmod-archive-keyring.gpg
```

--------------------------------

### Verify XanMod Kernel Version

Source: https://xanmod.org/

Checks the currently running kernel version. This command is useful after a reboot to confirm that the XanMod kernel has been successfully loaded.

```bash
cat /proc/version
```
