        It is clearly noted on the very first page of Xan forum:
        XanMod is a Linux kernel compilation of pf-Kernel base with custom modifications. Optimized for take full advantage in high-performance Workstations, Gaming Desktops, Media Centers and others.
        with all links given...
        Support for pf-kernel (apart from source) kind of lost momentum after abrupt closure of its forum. Yes, most of us learned about Xan kernel on pf-natalenko forum. But, it must be said, that Xan kernel went since at least couple of steps further. How to obtain binaries for newest pf-kernel?
        Code:
        :~$ cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/pf.list
        deb [arch=amd64] http://77.244.44.75/debian/ testing main
        deb [arch=amd64] http://akernel.ml/debian/ testing main
        deb [arch=amd64] ftp://big-bum.uni.cx/pf-kernel /amd64/
        deb [arch=amd64] http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/24870763/linux-pf/ amd64/
        
        after apt-get update:
        
        W: The repository 'ftp://big-bum.uni.cx/pf-kernel /amd64/ Release' does not have a Release file.
        N: Data from such a repository can't be authenticated and is therefore potentially dangerous to use.

        E: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.

            I did it as many times before (as much for myself as for others that do not have full know_how to do that themselves) but I do know that many users prefer (no comment) cooked versions... You did provide them for quite some time so I (wrongly) presumed that it would continue. I know how big and time-consuming is such endeavour so do not get me wrong. Just a suggestion, I'll leave it at this.

              Talking exceptionally about official pf-kernel binaries, they were abandoned almost 3 (three) years ago due to lack of donations. Why even remembering that?

              Now official pf-kernel binaries are provided for 2 CPU architectures for Arch Linux only.

                I did not know that, I was talking about sites mentioned on Your forum and http://77.244.44.75/. I must have mixed something in this old head of mine. Sorry to hear that and I know how hard is to get any donation and HW does not grow on trees... All the best.

                  As I stated many times before, 3rd-party binaries aren't (and weren't) supported by any means.
