I ran pacman -Syu and upgraded kernel. now almost nothing works.
I have no USB, ethernet, video (got a command line), alsa/audio, etc. Even fallback does the same thing. lshw doesn't find the ethernet device (or usb), nor does ifconfig. I'm not sure what other information to post, but I'll post more if needed. and re-running mkinitcpio didnt help.

I also ran a "pacman -Syu" today and now I have some error messages durring bootup related to alsactl and my intel hdmi output, as well as the loss of my mouses scroll feature. (can't scroll in dolphin, konqueror, or anywhere else)

Does anybody have a link to an old kernel26 packages (x86_64) before this update???
I would like to downgrade and see if it fixes my problem except I ran a pacman -Scc a few days back.

I also started getting GPU hang errors on updating. I just downgraded to previous kernel and it hasn't happened since. Sorry VALIS I do have old kernel package but its i686.

you can take 2.6.37.6 from here: http://dev.archlinux.org/~tpowa/kernel26-2.6.37/

Thank you completist and JokerBoy. I had just found this old package repository link: http://schlunix.org/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/
and have downloaded your 2.6.37.6 and the older 2.6.37.5 from the schlunix page.
Hopefully this works and thank you for the link.
EDIT: kernel26.37.6 works perfectly! fixed my HDMI audio output and my mouse scrolling issue. (intel i5-430M here on KDE 4.6.2) Thanks again.

running alsaconf as root fixed the alsa problem for me.

Please, do not just downgrade but also report these problems. They wont get fixed if you don't let the devs now about them. They should probably go upstream on the kernel bugtracker.

No problems here:

Linux vollgummi 2.6.38-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Mar 30 07:14:27 UTC 2011 \ i686 Intel(R) Atom(TM) CPU N270 @ 1.60GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux
You scratch my back, I'll ride on yours

My guess the kernel can't load your modules? Did you try loading a module manually through modprobe? If that fails, you should run depmod and perform a reboot.

Always keep a kernel26-lts in case a kernel upgrade breaks things

as root, run:
alsactl store
as well as the loss of my mouses scroll feature. (can't scroll in dolphin, konqueror, or anywhere else)

Well, I did read the wiki first, and I searched the forums next and found this thread.
I knew that I had already cleared my /var/cache with a pacman -Scc and I didn't feel like building an old kernel26 from source, and when I read the next part about ARM I was way too impatient and only skimmed the first paragraph and saw "The site is in a state of flux as of this date" which made me impatiently scroll down before reading the rest of that part... so I missed the part about how easy it would be to have add a different repo to pacman.conf and use -Suu...
and for some reson I still havent added the module needed for LVM snapshots so that part wouldn't of worked either.
I really was just looking for a quick link to an old package repo that I have used before for similar problems... it's just real easy to download a package from a page and then pacman -U it to see if that was the reason of the problem in the first place. I even found that web page http://schlunix.org/archlinux/core/os/x86_64/ when searching some other pages. (right before jokerboy posted a second link to another repo with old packages)
But the ArchWiki is the #1 reason I'm an Arch user, everytime I try to leave Arch for another distro I just can't believe how much better the ArchWiki documentation is than any other distro except maybe Gentoo... I guess I was just being lazy and impatient last night cause I didn't even check the bug pages for the true fixes to my problems (just like Ramses de Norre suggested), and like I said above... I should have read the section about ARM more thoroughly.
Thank you bangkok_manouel and off220 for your answers, and thanks again for everybody that has helped.
I'm going to re-install the new kernel and run alsactl store and add that line to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-synaptics.conf and see if that works... if not then I'll just downgrade again.
