> [@olividir](#): > > If Ethernet is wi-fi, then yes. I have only used this computer with wi-fi. No Ethernet is by connecting a cable. It uses realtek driver. Wifi uses your Intel wifi card. These are very different from each other. I suggest to change your title to “no wifi after hard freeze and AUR package installation” ---

> [@olividir](#): > > When I install the lts kernel, is there any tutorial on how to make the system select one kernel all the time? it will display it at boot as an option to select in grub. But you have to refresh mkconfig. Please make a backup before making system changes. 1. Install kernel `sudo pacman -S linux-lts linux-lts-headers` 2. Then update grub config ```auto grub-mkconfig -o /boot/grub/grub.cfg ``` [See arch wiki](https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/GRUB#Detecting_other_operating_systems) This post explain nicely why lts kernel > [@Should I use a LTS kernel?

The main reasons not to would be: You just like having and testing the absolute latest stuff You have very new hardware which requires a more recent kernel There is some new feature introduced that is must have for you To install the LTS kernel you can use: sudo pacman -S linux-lts linux-lts-headers Mainline non-LTS kernels can sometimes introduce issues early in their lifecycle.

> [@olividir](#): > > Will clean up FreeCAD and FreeCAD-git now I don’t use these programs so wouldn’t know why you want to install both and whether they are the same (conflict with each other) or not. If the git version install caused the freeze in the first place you may want to remove it and see if that fixes the issue. At least that’s what I would try. These are the two separate options (with lts kernel option posted above) that I would try. Good luck! (Have to go to work 😁) Edit: btw I see an Icelandic flag, I lived in Iceland for 3 years. Whish though my Icelandic would be better. I think I recall things like svepir and vatn 🤣 ---

Well, when I install the git version, the normal one gets over written or uninstalled automatically. I haven’t been able to have both installed simultaneously. The git is usually bit better if it doesn’t crash 😂😂 ---
