Fsck hook is not needed, we have a systemd hook that takes care of it.

Hi. I’m using Gnome. I have a USB mouse that I set its primary mouse button to the right button (Left handed setting). When I disconnect the mouse and reconnect it, the setting appears to remain the same in the mouse settings graphical interface, but the primary button is switched to the left button (Right handed/default). Anyone else has this problem? Any idea how to solve?
What makes it problematic for me is that I’m also facing an issue where the mouse keeps reconnecting automatically (without unplugging) and the button keeps switching every now and then. This reconnecting issue is not related to the update though.
In KDE sometimes the sound output through PulseEffects to the device is disabled (muted).
Sometimes it doesn’t work right after the system boots, sometimes later for no clear reason. But for sure, if you try to change the output in the settings, then the output through PulseEffects stops working.
These two entries appear in the journal at that moment:
06.11.2020 21:47 plasmashell org.kde.plasma.pulseaudio: No object for name "alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1b.0.analog-stereo.monitor"
06.11.2020 21:47 plasmashell kf.plasma.core: findInCache with a lastModified timestamp of 0 is deprecatedAfter updating on my Dell Inspiron 3558 running the KDE edition, PulseAudio doesn’t switch from headphones to speakers like it did prior to updating.
For anyone else having a similar issue, I got it working again by commenting out the downgrading to an older version of pulseaudio and it’s dependencies.load-module module-switch-on-port-available line in /etc/pulse/default.pa.

looking gooooood
and another linux lesson for me

Updated two systems - KDE - no problems this side.
My KDE system has the busybox hooks by default. Is there a benefit or risk to switching over to the systemd hooks?
Anything else need to be done besides making the changes to the .conf file and updating mkinitcpio and grub in Terminal?
I second that, Manjaro as Guest in VMware Workstation Pro 15 does not work well. Especially Visual Studio Code becomes unusable. I had the same problem with OpenSuSE.
I tracked it down to the recent mesa update. Downgrading from 20.2.1 to 20.1.8 solved my problem.
Seems to be already fixed upstream: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/3599.

Had the same issue with Workstation Pro 16. Downgrading mesa to 20.1.8 did the trick, thanks! Looks like it was fixed in the master branch but wasn’t backported to 20.2.x branch.

@psii, thanks a lot. I also can confirm, that Downgrading mesa to 20.1.8 did the trick.
It doesn’t work well for me – it switches sound to headphones, but plasma still says it is speakers and pulseeffects equalizer doesnt change its profile until i manually change speakers to headphones in plasma
Works on bare metal.
I’m running Manjaro Gnome on my Lenovo C340 Convertible.
Since the update I have problems with the tablet mode
The physical keyboard still gets disabled (as it should be).
But at the same time automatic screen rotation and the onscreen keyboard won’t get activated like before the update.
Using the systemd hooks has shaved off 1 second from my boot time. I have not experienced any adverse effects. 
Nope.

Update went fine…
Gnome + Linux59
All went well on two machines: Kernel 5.8, XFCE
Just updated this morning. so far, so good. 
Updated to manjaro-release-20.2pre-1 on Nov. 5th, and since next reboot I now have a very strange behavior:
- Manjaro via grub works as usual, graphical environment is ready for login within approx. 10 seconds
- After login, the Xfce desktop shows up within 5 seconds, but: with Manjaro default background
- thereafter, without any input or mouse actions, my customized background shows up approx 60 seconds later.
- after that, most applications that I start will come up almost immediately, as usual, but some have an annoying delay: for example, thunar starts up immediate but takes 60 seconds before my Home directory is displayed, and rejects any response to mouse actions until then.
I looked for anything strange in dmesg and system journal, but found nothing that might give an indication of whats going wrong.
Obviously, this misbehavior seems to be related to programs accessing the (home?) file system.
I will be grateful for any hints on how to solve this issue.
