Hi everyone , I have been using Darkmatter for a couple of months with kernel 5.XX that only works on 10th gen intel processor . Is there a way to boot with kernel 4.XX ? I heard about using swift shaders but i dont know how to use it .

Short answer - yes
long answer ⤵
@BhaviGamer why would use older kernel version ?
If you are using 10th gen laptops with uhd graphics 620 you can boot from kernel 4.19.xx with mesa 20.xx.xx ( using kernel 4.9 or lower can result from booting into swiftshader or no booting at all)
Swiftshader is a graphics driver from google which uses software rendering instead of the igpu.
@BhaviGamer swiftshader is only used when there gpu acceleration is not available . It results in very very poor performance and opengl es 3.0 apps like most modern games wont work . ( to enable it you can add nomodeset xforcevesa in the grub command after quiet )
Using kernel 4.xx will also result in various acpi errors sometimes.
Now the fun part ,
if you have 10th gen icelake laptop with intel uhd graphics G1 or iris plus graphics ,kernel 4.19 , 4.14 wont even boot . Kernel 4.9 and 4.14(pheonix os) boots but with swiftshader leading to poor performance . You have to upgrade through gearlock to kernel 5.xx.xxx and mesa 20.xx/19.xx/18.xx to have graphice acceleration .
i have 10th gen icelake laptop with intel uhd graphics G1 ( i3 -1005g1) . Best , stable and performant kernel - 5.4.xxx with mesa 20.2.
You can use kernel 5.10 with mesa 21 but they are still unstable on 10th gen ( apps crash after 4 mins of starting darkmatter and some graphical glitches ) and there is no noticable difference in performance but you have to use this if you have 11th gen intel cpus .

I dont have much knowledge about 10th gen desktop cpu with intel uhd graphics 630 but can use kernel 5.4.xxx with mesa 20.xx.xx for best performance

Please help guys. I have i3 10100 desktop with onborad gpu intel uhd 630. I tried all ways, but still POS detects only swiftshader and shows 4.14 kernel. I don't know what to do.

I installed mesa 20 and kernel 5.4. The system shows kernel 5.4, but gl is still swiftshader. I tried almost all os, but no difference. Any suggestion??

There is bug in official pheonix os that although you use mesa 20 and kernel 5.4 it will use swiftshader . I recommend to use darkmatter exo 4.7(beta-2) as this does happen there and also darkmatter is just better .

The method i use is to first update gearlock to latest version and then reboot . It may take some time to boot so wait . Then open gearlock app and install kernel and type y when it asks to update firmware and then again type y for reboot . Then after reboot will be stuck at Darkmatter_x86_64 . No problem , just type gearlock and press enter . gearlock will run and then install mesa (Keep all kernel and mesa in gearload folder for easier access) .

It will again take longer boot time but not more than 10 mins . if takes more then you probably have to reinstall darkmatter because doing force shutdown during boot time corrupts the ext4 filesystem and makes it read - only .

I tested with DM 4.7 and did all you said, but in ntfs mode. It still shows swiftshader. Mesa 20 and Kernel 5.4.

You must try in ext4 because ext4 is better , faster and optimized and you can still access windows drives from DM 4.7

it happened to me many times
i repair fs with gearlock recovery and mout fs as rw
then it solves
