I have this errors......my kernel version is the 2.6.21-ARCH, maybe is this the reason? How can I upgrade the kernel?
thx

I'm not sure this is the right way do do it, but i usually delete conflicting files and then do the upgrade.

check which package owns the files with 'pacman -Qo $pathtofile'
If it is now owned by a package you can safely force the package to install with 'pacman -Sf kernel26'
If the files are owned by a package then there they are conflicting and the path to follow will be different for each situation.
If you are not sure what to do post here which package (if any) owns the files.

solved! I tried with
pacman -Sf kernel26
and then it has all been solved
thx a lot
