Your system is out of date no matter if you’re using the testing or unstable branch. Please make sure you’re up to date before requesting support.

❯ mbn info linux66 | grep 'Branch\|Version'
Branch         : unstable
Version        : 6.6.66-2
Branch         : testing
Version        : 6.6.65-1
Branch         : stable
Version        : 6.6.63-1

Either way, the cifs module is indeed included:

❯ sudo pacman -Fyl linux66 | grep cifs
linux66 /usr/lib/modules/6.6.66-1-MANJARO/kernel/fs/smb/client/cifs.ko.zst
linux66 /usr/lib/modules/6.6.66-1-MANJARO/kernel/fs/smb/common/cifs_arc4.ko.zst
linux66 /usr/lib/modules/6.6.66-1-MANJARO/kernel/fs/smb/common/cifs_md4.ko.zst

P.S. Your profile says you’re using the stable branch. Might want to update that. :wink:

The problem was indeed solved after I upgraded. I have an unstable version of the system paired with a stable version of the kernel.

Why would you do such a thing?

PS

Partial-upgrades are unsupported.
