It may be trying to remove whats already there. Just say no then i guess.
Error installing, conflicting dependencies.
That’s fine it won’t install it unless you said yes because of the conflict. I’m just not sure if it would work so i don’t want to mess it up further just in case.
Gotcha. I’m just confused now lol
For context: When I installed I made sure I wouldn’t lose Windows when doing so, ended up losing it anyways and had to figure out how to find it. Couldn’t connect wifi so I found my roommates long ethernet to update EOS and everything after install, and now i’m here hahaha
What kernel are you running on EOS?
That is a good question. I just updated to newest I believe.
Edit: 6.10.7-arch1-1 is current version installed.
On the installed system you can check.
uname -a
If you want you could try the lts kernel. You just need to install akm which is a package to manage kernels. Or you could use the terminal to do it all.
yay -S akm
Then from the menu launch akm and you can install the lts kernel and headers and then reboot. See if any difference with the wifi. If not you can use akm to remove the lts kernel and lts headers.
I’m unselecting the Arch options, yes? Just want to make sure
No you install the lts kernel and lts headers and don’t unselect anything. Then you’ll have both the current kernel installed and lts and then when you boot you can select either kernel by letting it boot default or going into advanced and selecting which kernel to boot.
Edit: I didn’t even check with you if you are using the default systemd-boot when you installed or you used grub.
Grub is what it selected, I defaulted everything.
Edit: if need be I can make a new ISO drive and reinstall the entire OS. Not like I’m very far into the updates lol
Okay …but systemd-boot is default unless you selected grub.
Edit: If WiFi still doesn’t work on the lts kernel maybe future updates might get it working.
Edit: It’s showing a module but nothing loaded on the current kernel.
Device-2: Realtek driver: N/A modules: rtw89_8851be pcie: gen: 1

I also notice this arch post where the user reset the CMOS or could remove the CMOS battery from the board and reset.
After installing akm and lts, it still only shows the initial two options in grub
Did you check the advanced menu in grub.
Yes, before and after advanced menu has two options. From that post, I did not check hibernate or secure boot. I’ll check that and see
Hopefully you installed both the lts kernel and the lts headers.
Yes, I selected both. I’ll try cmos after the windows settings.
Secure boot should be disabled as well as CSM.
This doesn’t make sense. If you installed the lts kernel along with the current kernel it will boot on the lts most likely but if you go into the advanced menu in grub it will have both kernels listed and you can boot either or.
