Graphics Issue After Updating Manjaro

hello everyone,

I’m new on this forum and also newbie on Manjaro Distro.
I installed and update manjaro to the latest (stable) version but after restarting, I found issue with graphics, cursor become grey square and on login screen after booting, everything is looking so weird.

Welcome to the forum! :wave:

Since you’re new on this forum, I’d recommend you take a look at the link below:

Please update your post accordingly.

Please be more specific and define “weird”. There were important changes to Gnome’s appearance since the release of Gnome 40 a few update cycles ago. See the announcement thread below:

Thanks!

I’m not able to attach a pic or share a link… unable to share why I use term Weird here.

So no need to tell us again:

:wink:
The rest of your inxi looks fine…

Please read this:

:crossed_fingers:

updates with screenshot of actual issue.

Did you try changing your user icon after the issue?

Was it a default system icon, or maybe a custom image of your own coming from another disk/partition? Another disk/partition not necessarily mounted at boot, thus the grey square?

And as already said

is not really precise/helping.

its not icon. it’s cursor image change automatically after upgrading Manjaro.

Then have you tried changing the cursor in Gnome-tweaks? What is your default cursor name?

i do the same and it works for desktop but unfortunately nothing changed on Lock Screen. Also when I disable Wayland Sessions, cursor looks good but other things become miss arranged.
