**Manjaro 24.0** mostly shipped with the **linux69** kernel, which got removed in today's **stable** update. So some people manage to get unbootable systems or the **Nvidia** driver uninstalled, due to **pamac's** automatic conflict resolution. There was a **Nvidia** driver update as well, and no **extramodules** update for the dropped kernel. Some issues: - https://forum.manjaro.org/t/cannot-get-to-desktop-after-latest-system-update/168749 - https://forum.manjaro.org/t/nvidia-driver-update-broke-nvidia-drivers/168761 - https://forum.manjaro.org/t/cannot-change-to-a-different-kernel-from-6-9/168728 For now I created a new meta package, which installs the **linux610** packages as needed: [PKGBUILD](/uploads/8f15763315e614f14422a0f0e1718909/PKGBUILD) Since pamac has already the kernel management to install extramodules based on the current kernel, would it be not possible to automate the EOL kernel removal via pamac and update the next available kernel series? However, we might need to patch pacman to do a similar thing. For now those meta packages handle it with replace and conflict functions.
