I have been having quite a few problems with the 2.6.31 Kernel is there a way to roll back the Kernel to 2.6.30

Have a look at the 'Downgrade Packages' wiki page.

what kinds of problems?

When I am using the 2.6.31 Kernel it seems to lock up and freeze nothing responds. I saw else where on the forums that some people were having problems with it when using wireless. because sometimes it will happen right after I install from the CD, do a pacman -Syu then reboot it will start locking up

All of the 2.6.31.x kernels have cause some minor freezing / locking up issues for me, too, so I'm hoping that 2.6.31.6 that was released earlier today will fix those problems.

You can get the older kernels here:

...but note that you might have to downgrade certain other packages as well if they depend on a certain kernel.

a few weeks ago i was trying to compile the zen kernel on my desktop. and for the life of me, i couldn't get 2.6.31 to compile at all no matter what. i wonder if whatever problems people are having with it might be the same sort of problems causing my compile issues with it.....

i ended up using 2.6.32RC, its running stable, no problems with it. i would have used 2.6.30 but i needed the x-fi drivers
