**Hyperion Kernel** is a custom Linux 6.19.6 kernel build engineered to be the definitive daily-driver kernel for every kind of Linux user โ gamers, developers, modders, tinkerers, and hobbyists. It combines the best configuration practices from CachyOS, XanMod, Nobara, Liquorix, and upstream Linux into a single, fully integrated, zero-compromise `bzImage`.

**v3.0.0 is the Universal Daily-Driver Pass** โ building on the Monolithic Integration Pass of v2.0.1, this release extends hardware coverage to every mainstream chipset, adds full compatibility with all major Linux distributions through multi-LSM support, fills every real-world hardware gap identified across thousands of deployed systems, and adds entire subsystems that were previously absent: Thunderbolt/USB4, WireGuard, V4L2/UVC webcam, SoC audio, drawing tablet drivers, modern Realtek and Qualcomm Wi-Fi, and comprehensive Bluetooth UART support.
