Arch Linux User Repository

Tired of compiling? Use this binary repo instead! Add this at the end of /etc/pacman.conf :

[linuxkernels]
Server = http://nhameh.ovh/$repo/$arch
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll

good to hear! I dont use the "CONFIG_EFI" module and it had upstream trouble.

@eggz: v6.8.6-2 worked for me. Thanks again!

Okay, if 6.8.6-2 doesnt work I need to find out what the problem is. This can take a while.

@eggz I was also affected by v6.8.5, so I rolled back for now.

Just wondering if you have tested v6.8.6 yet? Would you say it's okay to update?

Thanks in advance!

On this moment, linux 6.8.5 does not boot on my AMD CPU hardware. It's reproduced on serveral AMD CPU systems and my amd kernels. The only kernel that works is my slimmed down linux-slim, pointing to an upstream bug somewhere in more complex kernel configs. Because of the number of commits in the 6.8.5 and no debuginfo (the kernel crashes right after the initramfs pivot), I am currently at a loss what the problem specifically is.

Those dkms modules run fine here so I can't really replicate the issue

This might be LTO issue I have in my build. It's just weird it's not happening with any other kernels

I get the following errors:

As you can see it's almost every dkms I have installed. I download the module pre-compiled direct for the provided link http://nhameh.ovh/$repo/$arch, I will try to go to the AUR and get the uncompiled version see if I get the same errors

@dedguy21 I would think this depends of the individual dkms modules updating their code or not? It would be at the very least useful to tell which dkms modules are having problems (and their versions).

I've been getting a lot of DKMS build errors since the move to 6.6 was hoping these error would be resolved by 6.7 but still getting them. Is anyone else?

@eggz, nevermind, I thought your config file entirely differs from archlinux's official kernel. I meant on archlinux kernel's github page, there's a patch for every version (i thought they were exclusive for archlinux), now I think they don't really matter
