Hey, so as of yesterday or today, problems have arisen such as no audio in Youtube and kernel errors with VirtualBox and a few other things here and there like the splash screen appearing on boot up instead of the two lines showing loading kernel ramdisk and which kernel. I am on Linux-Cacule, so just wondering if something in the kernel update recently was broken?
I have restored an old snapshot where everything is working again so no issues so I don't see posting logs as useful in this situation, but will post terminal output anyway. Thanks

There were issues but they should solved already according to @ptr1337
Well I don't think they're solved as I updated like an hour ago and restored back to an old snapshot and then I updated again and same thing. But no I haven't tried another kernel yet, didn't get the time too but will now thanks. I'll let you know
Sorry I've been a while, been helping my mum as she's moved into a bungalow so been setting up art dishwasher, washing machine and unpacking and moving and lifting the heavy stuff. Anyway though, installed Zen and it's dkms package and booted into it and upgraded and it worked without any issue. No issues like on CacULE. So definitely a CacULE issue I would say
Actually, I've been holding off on 5.13.11-3 too because of problems after an update. Didn't even check the audio, everything was just too slow to work with, so I just reverted the update and added IgnorePkg = linux-cacule linux-cacule-headers to my pacman.conf. Been updating normally since then.

Good to know it's not just me then so thanks for posting. Outta interest, what guide if any do you follow for compiling the kernel? I know there's the arch wiki but a nice guide would be easier to follow. But yeah hopefully this issue gets fixed soon so that I can compile it for the first time.
To be honest, I’m not the one to ask. I clone it, install dependencies, and makepkg it like any other aur package. Then I select my CPU type when prompted. I’m 100% sure there are better ways. I’ve tried to flag for using all cores once and it did not go well so I do it the slow way.

Whats that UUID is for?

Ah, I suppose I should try that one. Didn’t realize it was already available to build
@all
For compiling your Kernel yourself, just change pull the wanted Kernel with:
cd linux-cacule-* (depends which you have pulled)
the kernel will autodetect you cpu march and will optimize them.
Kernerls with *-llvm are compiled automatically with lto.

No question: 1 for optimized?
No clue tbh. Didn't even see it
Thanks, but any clue why I may be having issues stated in the top post? No clue what could have caused it

BTW
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/linux-cacule.git
cd linux-cacule/
makepkg -s
I never use paru.
Need more details
Yes, 1 will detect your CPU and add it to the config file.select *=y and remove the upper one to have the old configure.
but the autodection is running good. tested on several devices.

paru -G is completly working fine.
paru -G = git clone "wantedpackage"
same for yay -G

Try without
Just checked, that's my swap file
Anyway I'm currently compiling the kernel so it can be optimised for my CPU and to see if that fixes issues as I installed it through the setup assistant originally I think.
What about the headers? Or you can install that as usual through Pacman or paru?
