Specific way to apt install tools for Linux Tkg? Linux Mint (Ubuntu without eewy snaps) Edition

[blunelsongamer]

I get it, its in experimental because its not arch, but i tried to apt install an specified package for what it told me, and it says unable to find it. It DID Install the linux tools, but its common, not eevdf, making it hard for me to install package cpupower in general. I know it sounds stupid, but its because im semi-new to linux anyway.

• Linux Mint
• Can't install tools specifically for the linux-tkg.
• cpupower
  WARNING: cpupower not found for kernel 6.11.1-tkg

You may need to install the following packages for this specific kernel:
linux-tools-6.11.1-tkg-eevdf
linux-cloud-tools-6.11.1-tkg-eevdf

You may also want to install one of the following packages to keep up to date:
linux-tools-eevdf
linux-cloud-tools-eevdf

sudo apt install linux-tools-eevdf
[sudo] password for blu:

Here's what I recommend for anyone stuck on mint (so far)

It's going to be CPUPower only, the rest is insured till further notice.

sudo apt install cpupower-gui.

Make sure to open that and use the highest with the maximum CPU cores you can get, as it works similarly without need of commands. Also try to keep it as "performance" to have faster results as well, though try this at your own risk. As I and they are not responsible for it.

Regarding that linux-tools package thing, it seems to be pretty much not used nor useful anymore (see https://packages.ubuntu.com/noble/linux-tools-generic - the package only contains documentation). From what I could find Debian broke this into specific packages (three of them or so, a USB device sharing utility, KBuild infrastructure, and performance analysis tools) and Ubuntu is taking a couple years to adapt as usual 🐸
