After the update and a reboot, I got a wired issue, where the application window freezes but I can move my pointer, access the menu but I am unable to open other applications via the GUI. But able to open them up via terminal. I had to kill all the applications. I again rebooted it’s working fine now.
I run gnome.
Couldn’t update with sudo pacman -Syu for the same reason, files exist in filesystem. Tried via Package Manager and the installation was successful. Got a message that some files were backed up somewhere, now I don’t remember a thing, should pay more attention in the future.
All seems to works fine (Package Manager icon is still black) and grub version is 2.04~manjaro. Was that supposed to happen by itself, I was under the impression that I had to do it manually?
yes I know it’s an AUR package but in this case it seems to be a pamac issue w/ google-chrome it is the only aur package which is marked as orphaned … or should we stop using aur packages now?
AUR packages get orphaned when a maintainer drops it.
It is then (hopefully) picked up by another maintainer.
Many AUR helpers report such package status.
On the other hand … google-chrome is not currently orphaned.

I love the fact about the stable updates that it’s being tested first and then released. I rather wait a few weeks or even a month, and don’t worry about trying to fix a broken system! Updated 6 machines (KDE) without any issues. Thank you Manjaro team!

wine-staging 5.14 doesn’t seem to work at all. Nothing seems to work (via Wine) that used to work before.
Can’t even create a new fresh wineboot “bottle” ffs.

downgraded back to wine-staging 5.8 where everything worked semi well and seems to work semi well still now.
discord 0.0.11-1 seems to be also more crashy than before. Sadly there is no way to downgrade this because it automatically upgrades itself on launch.

Solution was installing 450 driver with dkms
yay -S nvidia-dkms

Update went well. No issues! 
Same here, but mine is amdgpu_bl1. Everything is fine (brightness, graphic,…) except this error during startup.
How does this work? Does it not mess with the MHWD setup? Would I need to do any extra configuration for Manjaro to use the 450 driver?

Also AMD GPU drivers seem to have got a lot worse. Tried both kernel 5.8.0 and 5.7.14.
edit:
Or this might be my Vega 64 overheating now suddenly. Cranked up the fan speed with CoreCtrl… idle temps lowered from 61C to 34C … will see if this will change anything with stability.
edit2: nope. not this. this is just so unstable stuff. everything crashing.
Firefox crashing; Discord crashing; Xorg server crashing; Even the effing xcfe4-terminal managed to close itself with coredump.
You first need to delete the 440 (or else driver) using mhwd:
mhwd -r pci video-nvidia-440xx
and then install the 450 version.
the rest of the packages like nvidia-utils I had to install from the arch stable repo :0
because mhwd db is outdated and doesn’t have the 450 driver

Hi,
the new kernel gave me a headache: linux58 doesn’t have support for my admittedly antediluvian Nvidia GeForce-210 (video-nvidia-340xx), so I’m still running 5.7.14-1-MANJARO. Apart from that, smooth as silk -great job once more!
One question only: is there any chance of new drivers for my card?
I haven’t tested all of it yet, but so far so good, apart from one very strange glitch: sound output was missing after upgrade and reboot. The DE was behaving as if it could not find any sound devices.
I had to try to run a movie file, which initially gave no sound, to get the sound icon showing normally in the system tray, and to get my on-board sound output acknowledged as existing. Still no actual sound. I rebooted again and the problem was gone.
I also have a few emojis greyed out, but not nearly as many as others report on here.
When I upgraded, I had a problem with my laptop and now when I start it, this appears:
[FAILED] Failed to start Load/Save mess of backlight:acpi_video0
What can I do to fix it?
I was looking on the Manjaro Forum but it’s a private post, and in Arch Linux forums (but it didn’t work out…)
No problems after a bit of use. Updated via command line.
Grub reinstall, no issues. UEFI install
linux54, vanilla gnome, core i5, intel graphics, various extensions.
Side note, I like the look of the new forum!
I can’t get xrun to work anymore.
I was on linux56 and agreed to update to the “latest” metapackage. I had to uninstall nvidia-xrun though because apparently nothing provides “nvidia” anymore despite having linux57-nvidia-430xx installed. I force installed xrun by removing the nvidia dependency from the pkg file but it doesn’t work.
That also could be a Pamac bug, I will check it.
