Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.

Cannot boot after update. Getting Failed to Load Kernel Extensions error during boot and get put into Emergency Mode command line.

Edit: Booted into alternate kernel 5.7, which booted fine. Then proceeded to reinstall kernel 5.8. Rebooted into 5.8 fine afterwards. Issue resolved.

No issues here. XFCE via TTY.

Had some issues with this one, video stopped working, lost network, and lm_sensors.service fails.

Network:
adapter is a Realtek RTL8111H gigabit ethernet controller. The kernel driver wasn’t being loaded, fixed by:

modprobe r8169  

Then reinstalled drivers later via the GUI once graphics were re-established (this seems to have installed r8168).

Graphics:
Prior to this update, I had already installed nvidia 450xx. It seems like the cause of this issue was that linux58-nvidia-450xx was not installed in the update from kernel 57 to kernel 58, I fixed this by running

sudo mhwd -f -i pci video-nvidia-450xx  

haven’t solved the lm_sensors issue yet, since it is less critical, I will do that when I get the time, if anyone has any suggestions, the error is:

systemd[1]: Starting Initialize hardware monitoring sensors...
sensors[590]: No sensors found!
sensors[590]: Make sure you loaded all the kernel drivers you need.
sensors[590]: Try sensors-detect to find out which these are.
systemd[1]: lm_sensors.service: Main process exited, code=exited, status=1/FAILURE
systemd[1]: lm_sensors.service: Failed with result 'exit-code'.
systemd[1]: Failed to start Initialize hardware monitoring sensors.  

I have run sensors-detect, and it made no difference.
Edit: fixed, linux58-headers was not installed and so the zenpower module was not updated.

Clean the cache:

pamac clean --keep 0
pamac clean --build-files

and try again.

Try removing lm_sensors and purging the configuration files:

pamac remove --no-save lm_sensors

reboot, reinstall and detect again:

sudo reboot
pamac install lm_sensors
sensors_detect

If that doesn’t do the trick, open a new issue here and link to this post.

A small blockage during the update and installation of packages. I had errors like:

https://mirrors.shuosc.org/manjaro/stable/core/x86_64/core.db: Error resolving “mirrors.shuosc.org”: Name or service unknown http: / /pet.inf.ufsc.br/mirrors/manjarolinux/stable/core/x86_64/core.db: Unable to connect: I / O timed out on the connector https://mirrors.shu.edu.cn/manjaro/ stable / core / x86_64 / core.db: Unable to connect: Connection refused https://repo.rhindon.net/manjaro/stable/core/x86_64/core.db: Error resolving “repo.rhindon.net” : Name or service unknown

But I was able to solve them by changing the mirrors of the official repositories from “whole world” to “France”.

I can’t boot due to mysterious issues with LightDM

Posted more details in this issue.

Hi @kraNG,

I seem to have the same problem.
Could you please explain a noob how to do this from tty2? (I mean, removing the drivers)

Thank you so much, I was just about to reinstall all the system from scratch…

After noticing last night that I couldn’t use Vulcan with the 440xx driver I was able to use the GUI tool to switch it out for the 450xx driver and when I rebooted it worked probably because I had already uninstalled cuda.

Edit:
The above refers to the pervious stable update. I’m not sure I ever actually got this one. I remeber getting a small update of 27 packages. Maybe that was it? All went fine so I’ll mark that :slight_smile:
Even updated my mirror list and ran -Syyu but got nothing else.

I have the same problem: linux58-ndiswrapper is a required dependency of linux-latest-ndiswrapper, but linux58-ndiswrapper does not exist. Even upgrading the kernel from Linux 5.7.19 to Linux 5.8.6 does not help, because the upgrade does not supply linux58-ndiswrapper, and it’s not in the repos. I have linux57-ndiswrapper on my computer, but not linux58-ndiswrapper.

This problem was already noted here:

However, a solution to the problem was not provided.

No problem at all on two machines. Thanks to the team.

[kde - stable]

Hi, Just one frustrating problem:

I have many executable python scripts which i usually launch by double-click and choosing execute. On a clean install from iso (manjaro-kde-20.0.3-200606-linux56.iso), this works perfectly.

I did a complete re-install yesterday an did a ‘pacman -Syyu’. Now whenever I click ‘execute’ it opens the script in kate (the open behaviour). I have confirmed this by creating/testing/updating/testing in a vm.

If I right click the script an choose ‘execute in Konsole’ The scripts do execute (- without errors).

I have checked the file associations before and after the update I cannot see any changes.

I know the iso is getting a little bit old - I cannot confirm which of the updates I have installed in the past few weeks broke this. It may not be this one.

Other than that, this distro is brilliant - Many Thanks

This is my first post to the forum I appologize in advance if this is the wrong thread …

Sure :slight_smile: First I just uninstalled the nvidia-340 driver with pacman (not sure if you need to do this).

Then I used mhwd to find my driver:

mhwd --listinstalled

and then I just used the remove command with sudo:

sudo mhwd --remove pci video-nvidia-340xx

I’m also a total noob, so don’t know if you need to do these steps at all, but at least it worked for me :slight_smile:

Habe auch Probleme mit dem Update. Kernel ist 5.8.6.

Warnung: Kann “linux58-ndiswrapper” nicht auflösen (eine Abhängigkeit von “linux-latest-ndiswrapper”)
:: Das folgende Paket kann aufgrund nicht auflösbarer Abhängigkeiten nicht aktualisiert werden:
linux-latest-ndiswrapper

linux58-ndiswrapper ist nicht installiert und auch nicht im Repro verfügbar, dafür aber linux57-ndiswrapper.

Gruß

Boot with Kernel 5.4
Went into tty - pamac checkupdates -a and pamac update all went fine
Shut down- Boot up the new installed Kernel, 5.8.6-1
check:
sudo journalctl -p err --since today no errors

:blush: Thank you
