Hello, noob here.
I got a new laptop and installed Manjaro (coming from Ubuntu). One of the first things I wanted to do was switching to the LTS Kernel. So I installed it, rebooted and selected it. But then: nothing. First only the manufactors logo for a long time and then a black screen. Uninstalled it, reinstalled it, tried other Kernels. Everytime the same.
So I can only boot from the Kernel that was installed in the beginning.
Also (dont know if it has something to do with it) I tried to boot POP OS via USB and again it wouldnt boot (booted normally on my other pc). But the Manjaro USB is booting normally into Live OS.
In between (after my first attemt of switching to other Kernel) I also had an Error, I dont remember what it exactly was (I had so many problems, so I dont remember everything now…) but I had to deactivate secure booting. (also dont know, if it could have something to do with it…)
I have no idea what information I can give you other then:
uname -r

hmm no, its not showing the tls flag…? The latests LTS I see is the 5.4
5.10 is the latest LTS kernel
Thank you! That indeed worked!

Welcome.Glad it worked… sometimes old kernels don’t work with newer hardware…

U can check kernel development status here

Some hardware won’t boot with specific kernels as there is no support for them in those older kernels. For example, I cannot boot into Kernel 5.4 with my Radeon RX 5700XT, but I can in Kernel 5.6 and onward (but much much better with Kernel 5.10 and 5.11 now)
Some stuff are backported to some LTS kernels, but not everything.
If you want to learn more about each kernel changes, you can check it out here:
Phoronix has some good outlines as well
