Just a quick headsup for Cinnamon users (and yeah, when I find some time, I’ll try to dig up my Mint forum account and report back there too):
The Cinnamon 5.4 release apparently reworked some things, so other things are now kinda broken. Stuff I noticed (and some I reported before ):
all display settings were gone after updating, so monitor layout and orientation was back to default: fixed by going into the Cinnamon System Settings > Display dialog and redoing them
touchpad settings were gone, so for example “Tap to click” was disabled: fixed by going into the Cinnamon System Settings > Mouse and Touchpad dialog and enabling that feature
the input level meter in the System Settings > Sound dialog is broken and not showing if a microphone is active: using the PulseAudio Volume Control app works correctly
all individual Cinnamon Settings dialogs are gone from the Start menu, so typing “sound” or “display” in the Start menu does not work anymore and you have to go through the System Settings dialog
Agreed display doesn’t work but most of the others do.
Display works now!
Same issues here and I add another one: The keyboard applet on the status bar made the whole right part of the bar grow and overflow off the screen whenever I changed keyboard layouts. Removing the applet and adding it back again seems to have fixed the issue.
Edit: it broke again after restarting
For me all my Extensions stopped working. Cinnamon Maximus, gTile, Smart Panel, Transparent Panel. I’ve got 7 computers running Manjaro Cinnamon. 2 of them are production machines where I really need the desktop working perfectly. I’ve downgraded one of them and the other one I’m not touching until I’m sure the extensions works again. Updating the other machines rolling to be aware of when the extensions are working again.
Hello, I used another topic for relating some cinnamon bugs since 5.4 update, but it seems here is a better place. (look for “cinnamon-update-problem” in the forum, for some reason I can’t include links…)
Hello, since last update of manjaro / cinnamon, i have problems too :
Hot corners doesn’t work anymore : I have to deactivate / activate them in parameters to let them work … only some minutes
Screen Power Saving mode doesn’t work anoymore : Screensaver works but screen does not turn off anymore after 10 minutes as before (my own delay). It seems it turns off 2 seconds (black screen), and then wakes up for another 10 minutes screensaver round …
Note that my manjaro install is from 2015 … never had to reinstall since
Should I change some parameters ? Where are cinnamon config files ?
thanks for your help
If you check the github of most of the extensions you’ll see they’re not working on any distro running 5.4 not just manjaro. I know transparent panels extension hasn’t been updated on over 12 months so may not be maintained any more
I’ve just updated and also encountered problems. The main one for me is that the window-list applet won’t load, so I can only switch windows via Alt-Tab, not by clicking buttons on the panel.
There are a load of related errors in .xsession-errors that seem related, although I’m not really sure how to interpret them.
Yeah, Linux Mint is getting ready for the Linux Mint 21 release. They did some major overhaul of various parts, rebasing the window manager, changing how display configs are handled, and much more. Article link .
Maybe Linux Mint applies migration scripts for updates, but I guess we just get the packages when we update.
So, depending on what you’re using and what got changed around, different stuff may have got broken for different people/systems.
I’m using pretty much bog standard Cinnamon: no extensions and just a few standard settings changed around or features such as hot corners disabled. Apart from some annoyances and the display settings shakeup, I’ve been relatively okay. But yeah, if you’re stuck with something you use all the time now broken, that’s pretty annoying.
That said, I’d give it a couple of months if you can live with that. Linux Mint 21 is supposed to be released soon (Any Time Now ™) and when they do, there will be plenty of extra eyes on the changes/brokeness and I expect some more fixes then. Manjaro being what it is, we’ll see those fixes sooner rather than later.

What bugs me the most is that the systray applet doesn’t work properly and the icons it contains are not accessible when the taskbar is set to auto-hide.
And that the taskbar always twitches around when you move the cursor to the bottom of the screen to open it (in auto-hide mode) is the second point that bugs me a lot.
The fact that the extension for the bar transparency does not work at the moment I find not quite so tragic because I have changed the appropriate transparency values directly in the theme.
However, the prospect of having to wait for months for the fixes for the two problems mentioned above I find again super tragic…
I think I would like to downgrade cinnamon since I’m also missing the separate control for the window borders but I honestly don’t know exactly how to do it, it seems quite complicated if not impossible…
I’m adding another problem since this update :
If I switch on my PC while monitor is off, when I switch on the monitor,… black screen…
I have to reset PC
If monitor and PC are both on, it seems OK
Nothing in journalctl that i can understand…
There’s some new cinnamon updates been pushed to testing this morning. I’ll see if I can replicate your error.
All the other errors seem to be extensions /add ons etc which obviously need to be updated to work with cinnamon 5.4. There’s no much manjaro can do about them, but that’s up to the extensions maintainers
Apparently that is a feature not a bug
With The 5.4.0 update to cinnamon the Title Headers & Bordes Icon is missing in the theme in the settings. The org.cinnamon.desktop.wm.preferences still exists in the dconf but now has no effect.
@oberon & @Yochanan
If you downgrade you are going to have issues on a rolling release sooner or later

Yes, I know that it’s a feature but I feel it is an unnecessary restriction of possibilities.
And yes, you are right with the rolling release aspect and therefore I’m feeling a bit trapped right now…
I tried many desktops and settled on Gnome until Unity drove me from Ubuntu to Mint. Needing a bleeding edge kernel for new hardware drove me from Mint to Manjaro, where I was happy to find the Cinnamon community edition. Lately I have been thinking of giving KDE another try as a more mainstream and officially supported Manjaro desktop. I mean, the grudges I hold are against KDE 3/3.5. Much has changed.
So, don’t feel trapped. Make some time and experiment. The conclusion may be that it’s worth holding out for a bit and sticking with Cinnamon and/or even compromising on some changes you don’t like. But by then it will be your choice to do so and not something forced onto you.

From cinnamon-looking-glass; the error seems to be that it can't find a .js module..

Everything’s fine here since the last Manjaro / Cinnamon update - systray and taskbar are working correctly since…
Good! The latest update didn’t change a lot for me, since systray was already/still working as expected for me. The only thing I still notice is that the keybindings for snapping/positioning of windows are behaving a little different when you have multiple displays and occasionally I have trouble moving a window to another screen with the key combinations.
I followed the steps after a lot of research:
sudo pacman -S manjaro-cinnamon-settings;
sudo pamac reinstall cinnamon;
sudo pacman -Syyu
the last one showed me that many packages were missing, however it brought my system back and so far everything is working
I hope it helps
Not sure how many extensions have been fixed but transparent windows works now but you need to download/install in manually from here GitHub - yuansl/cinnamon-spices-extensions: Extensions for the Cinnamon desktop until they get merged into the linuxmint master

Not sure if this is specific to manjaro cinnamon or across the board but there’s an issue with libc or something:
