Hi,

grep 'linux (' /var/log/pacman.log | tail -1

does show the previous kernel.

You could install the kernel from testing.

pacman -U https://sgp.mirror.pkgbuild.com/testing/os/x86_64/linux{,-headers,-docs}-5.2.4.arch1-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

At the moment I'm using the kernel from testing and Ctrl+Alt+Fn as well
as Alt+Fn are working. Actually I'm used to use Ctrl+Alt+Fn only, but I
tested Alt+Fn right now. I don't know if it 'sometimes' won't work.

Regards,
Ralf
