nothing special. Except of a flaw in glibc is everything fine.

No issues. Very happy. I haven’t been able to boot the 4.19 lts since I think .50? It’s a kernal bug on amd vega 56/64 desktop cards.

With this new lts-kernel i don’t see a reason for using kernel 5.5. But i have old hardware, so i guess it makes no difference.

I am still in 4.19. How to install the new LTS?

update your mirrorlist … and run sudo grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg after updating…

AndreasDimo · February 13, 2020, 3:46pm

I done all that. Still the same

Elloquin · February 13, 2020, 3:55pm

So you are saying you had the old lts kenel 4.19 installed and then updated and still have 4.19?

AndreasDimo · February 13, 2020, 3:56pm

yes

Elloquin · February 13, 2020, 4:02pm

Odd. Well according to the arch wiki the latest LTS is 5.4.19-1. Sorry for being naive are you sure you are reading the output correctly?

AndreasDimo · February 13, 2020, 4:03pm

Sorry my mistake. I have now update my mirrors correctly and now the update came. All good. Sorry for the mess
