I've just flashed Ubuntu 22.04 offered by Friendlyelec. RKPNU driver has version 0.9.3
I tried to launch LLMs but had no success at least with those prepared by Pelochus.
I tried to upgrade and compile the newest kernel, and even managed to install it without errors, but bumped into the boot problem. It is still booting the old kernel. I don't know how to update the bootloader

Perhaps I should search more broadly. How can I get the RKNPU driver update v0.9.6 for my CM3588 device? Any suggestions, preferably without having to compile kernels and deal with all that geeky linux stuff?

Looks like some the arbian community is triyng to upgrage the kernel for CM3588 - https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/7082
A bit too complicated for my level though

To update the bootloader and ensure it uses your new kernel in Ubuntu 22.04, you can follow these steps. First, check if the new kernel is installed correctly by running dpkg --list | grep linux-image. You should see your new kernel version listed. If it's there, update the bootloader configuration by running sudo update-grub in the terminal. This command scans for available kernels and updates the GRUB configuration. After that, reboot your system with sudo reboot. If everything goes smoothly, your system should boot into the new kernel. If you still encounter issues, make sure your new kernel is not set to be hidden in the GRUB menu by checking the /etc/default/grub file for any settings that might be causing this.
