Best LE 13 Nightly for Intel N150 (Alder Lake-N)

    Hi everyone,

    I’m currently running a Blackview MP60 (Intel N150 / Alder Lake-N) into a Denon X3800H AVR. I’ve had success with sky42’s 12.0.2 (#250416),Kernel 6.12 version, which seems to be the only version that doesn't suffer from freezing LE after a few seconds of running.

    However, I’m seeing more and more videos of the N150 running LibreELEC 13 (Kodi 22 Piers) and I’d like to move to the internal SSD with a nightly that is "known good" for this specific hardware and AVR handshake.

    Current "Success" State:

    • Kernel: 6.12 (Stable, no freezes with C-states disabled in BIOS).
    • Handshake: Using getedid create to survive the Denon X3800H sync.

    The Question: Is there a specific LE 13 Nightly build date that is currently considered the "stable" choice for the N150?

    If anyone is running an N150 as their daily driver on LE 13, I’d love to know which specific nightly you are sticking with before I wipe my internal SSD again.

    Thanks!

    I'm not aware of any general issues with freezing/stalls on N100/N150 devices. There are less than a handful of reports with that kind of issue and most were triaged to some form of PEBKAC, or AI analysis of kernel crashes points to buggy wifi drivers (which newer kernels in nightlies might resolve) or users failed to provide meaningful information to investigate.

    TL/DR; The latest nightly would always be the staff recommendation. The only known issue is a long-running one with [email protected] playback and pass-through audio on HDMI connections, but that has a known workaround (reducing display bit-depth).

    If you then see issues, report them.
