Kernel doesn't want to update from 6.9.7-arch1-1

running #pacman -Syu doesnt show any newer .

Strange.

Please post the output of:

sudo pacman -Syyu

Notice the yy.

Refresh your mirrorlist.

Also, are using EnOS or Arch?

I don’t see endeavouros among your repos.

I just noticed that too. After a restart all the EOS apps are gone. What could cause this?

Shit’s breaking. Time for my monthly reinstallation, I guess.

Shit doesn’t break on EOS. :laughing:

Consult your /var/log/pacman.log for the last couple days of activity. it may show what happened to the EOS apps.

Almost sure someone followed an old guide and accidentally/intentionally edited/replaced a file, not knowing what would happen. :eyes:

The advantage of monthly reinstallations is that you don’t have to do (m)any updates in between.

:thinking:

I’ve installed and re-installed EOS several times on my laptop, never because “shit’s breaking” but because that laptop was my distro-hop rig until I settled on pure Arch.

As for my desktop, I installed EOS in February, '24 and it’s still running buttery smooth. While I had a couple minor hiccups along the way, they were never anything that I couldn’t find help or advice for within this forum or from the EOS Wiki or Arch Wiki.
