I regret upgrading to plasma 6.1, as it crashing a lot. The latest kernels are also giving SELinux Alert messeges, and opening the lid of my laptop after sleep the sreen goes black and nothing works only the light of power button stays on.
Can someone guide me how do I downgrade to Plasma 6.0 and downgrade to a stable kernel which supports plasma 6.0 and which did not had the seLinux issue?
Downgrading to the older and known buggy version of plasma does not seem a good idea.
Can we help with the selinux issue?
you can download different fedora kernels from their copr repo https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/groups/g/kernel-vanilla/coprs/ but i agree with the others comments about downgrading to a buggy plasma version
I’ve tried many solutions to the selinux issue including some renaming files command from this post, nothing has fixed the issue. But yes, if you can help it would be great help.
Won’t downgrading to some older kernel with newer software and newer firmware updates create some problems? If it’s okay, do you know what kernel verison was fedora using before 30 days, as I started facing this issue for around 28 days.

Booting to an older kernel usually works. Assuming you boot to a kernel used during the f40 life time.
If you are willing to change selinux mode to PERMISSIVE from ENFORCING you could do that until a fix is available. The setting is in /etc/sysconfig/selinux. After changing reboot.
Moderators have asked us not to do this, as it’s not safe. Going to try this workaround for now.
I agree its better to have selinux on. Where did you see that advice?
I’d like to read the background.
I read it somewhere in this post. One of the mods wrote it.
I cannot see that advice when I read the thread. Of course it would be better to have a fix.
Given the trade off with downgrading a lot of software or going to PERMISSIVE mode I would switch to PERMISSIVE.
