lost my net after pacman -Syu

Ok, i did a pacman -Syu for the first time in many months. Since then, i can only use the default Arch Linux kernel, i had one that i had compiled myself but after the upgrade, it will not recognize my two ethernet cards, ( one connects me to the net, and one connects me to a thinkpad )
ok,, any ideas of what went wrong? it may have something to do with udev being included in the Syu. i dont know a lot about it though.

thanks all for any suggestions,

Re: lost my net after pacman -Syu

maybe Pacman nuked the old modules,
check /lib/modules/name_of_kernel ,

if that's the case your own kernel don't got any modules anymore,


arch + gentoo + initng + python = enlisy

Or even better, don't have kernel26 installed at all.

Re: lost my net after pacman -Syu

if you do as Xentac says you should get your kernel source at kernel.org, not the same version as arch',
after that you can do "pacman -R kernel26"
I have.   big_smile
