Code:

sudo cat /var/log/dpkg.log | grep upgrade

helps finding all packages which has been upgraded

i somehow managed to install 17.6 in the past hour (via ethernet), but that doesn't help fixing the wifi

Code:

2017-11-12 20:49:57 upgrade xbian-package-config-shell:armhf 20171001-1 20171108-0
2017-11-12 20:50:35 upgrade linux-image-bcm2836:armhf 4.9.58+-1508858583 4.9.60+-1509910371

after looking when installed that package, this seems to be the time my wifi was broken

how to i set back to an older kernel if that may be the solution? never done that

1) get all versions available:

Code:

sudo apt-cache policy linux-image-bcm2836

2) Install version you want:

Code:

sudo apt-get install linux-image-bcm2836=<the version you want>

for example sudo apt-get install linux-image-bcm2836=4.9.60+-1509910371
