  2. Ubuntu Live Patch Service might apply kernel patches automatically. XRT is not tested against live patches. To prevent compatibility issues, turn off kernel auto-upgrade.
  3. Ubuntu 18.04.4 Desktop version enables HWE by default, but the server version does not.

    For version details, refer to the Ubuntu website.

Note: During installation, the kernel-headers package is required. CentOS only provides the kernel-headers package for some releases. XRT only supports CentOS OS versions that provide kernel-headers packages.
