Hi @b_quest, thank you for your feedback. For me gnome-sogtware did the trick. A little bit annoying thing: it upgraded a bunch of flatpak packages automatically, without asking nor letting me taking note of what it was doing.

Luckily it worked.

what happens if you remove the pamac-flatpak-plugin and pamac-snap-plugin?

pamac remove pamac-flatpak-plugin pamac-snap-plugin

We had a similar issue in v10.0 we are currently testing. Seems something changed and affected also the stable release.

You can also disable the plugins like so:

sudo sed -i -e /EnableSnap/d /etc/pamac.conf
sudo sed -i -e /EnableFlatpak/d /etc/pamac.conf

I have an issue after update my system. I use Cinnamon edition, and after update i have NO menu. I only see desktop icons, and canā€™t access other applications.

32

To solve this problem:

sudo mv .config .config_NEW

sudo mv .local .local_NEW

33

Updated my gnome System, everything went smoothly.

Kudos to Manjaro team. :innocent:

(KDE) Great. Normally, every update breaks the rtl8723de wifi chipset driver and I have to spend some time fixing it but this time it just worked. Update changes the Chromium zoom and UI levels as well, it retained the changes I had made this time.

Thunderbird 78.5.1 breaks Cardbook functionality. A fix is to install the latest Cardbook version, see this page for details.

@alfeo.silvestro

Thanks for the info you provided. I wasnā€™t able to figure out how to get the pamac to work reading the Wiki, but it worked after I followed your notes. :slightly_smiling_face:

If anyone got problems with rendering on firefox, especially with white popups in extensions see this link:

A workaround is to disable gfx.webrender.all in about:config.

Printer service remains unavailable through reboots after update, KDE official release. Is this the right solution? https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=185298

Just use the CUPS related commands showed in Known issues and solutions from above.

No issue with the update (Plasma). However, Iā€™ve noticed that the shutdown time has increased: it has appeared a black screen with the mouse cursor that lasts 10 seconds more or less. It seems that, after killing plasmashell, wallpaper etc., thereā€™s a process that now takes more time to kill.

Iā€™m on a Thinkpad T480S with encrypted home folder.

Plasma fresh install = unstable 100% CPU usage Panel unusable. Temporary fix available but not worth it as issue comes back after a while. Awaiting permanent solution.

I use plasma in testing, Xorg version works flawlessly. Wayland version was always unstable.
