[Stable Update] 2020-12-30 - Kernels, KDE, Cinnamon, LibreOffice, Python 3.9, Mesa 20.3.1

I got ttf-nerd-fonts-symbols and nerd-fonts-terminus are in conflict. Nerd-fonts-terminus is a dependency required by manjaro-i3-settings and manjaro-ranger-settings. I had to uninstall both and install i3-gaps and the rest manually before updating.

Brightness keys didn’t work in 5.10, even xbacklight doesn’t help. I resorted to using the light package and I think I’m good for now.

I also got issues with Nvidia but I managed to resolve them.

Not anymore. Fixed with nerd-fonts-terminus 2.10-4.

I had two problems, I fixed both:

  • My grub cryptoboot failed with the message “cryptouuid not found”. I had to disconnect my external hard drive to make it work again.
  • My X didn’t start, the rolling NVidia drivers weren’t installed for the new kernel 5.10. I installed them afterwards.

Update went fine. However now there is this periodic click sound in speakers. Also there is this new thing in journald (this has been only once so far and doesn’t correlate with clicks):

jaan  02 08:32:22 Zen pulseaudio[1490]: ALSA woke us up to write new data to the device, but there was actually nothing to write.
jaan  02 08:32:22 Zen pulseaudio[1490]: Most likely this is a bug in the ALSA driver 'snd_hda_intel'. Please report this issue to the ALSA developers.
jaan  02 08:32:22 Zen pulseaudio[1490]: We were woken up with POLLOUT set -- however a subsequent snd_pcm_avail() returned 0 or another value < min_avail.

kernel 5.10

Hi, I recently updated my system, but after an update, I just noticed that the apps installed via snap doesn’t open.
I tried using terminal, and i get an error saying

> subl
cannot query current apparmor profile: Invalid argument

Any help would be appreciated!

Edit: Switching to kernel 5.10 solves the issue

Thank you for this advise.

Do you know, if this issue will be fixed soon?
(I ask because I experience the same problem. But in the following post someone stated that he/she could not log in into the system anymore:

[Can't shutdown the system / hangs at black screen]

If the problem is fixed soon, I would wait some days for this update. But if a fix will be there in two or three month, I would try your solution… I simply do not like to reinstall my system (and spend a lot of time) when this will be fixed soon. (Yes, I am lazy.))

Mod-edit: Output formatting.
Please use correct formatting and don’t combine output of different commands, it will make them unnoticed.


Hello,
After update i got issues with Nvidia drivers, i remove old ones and reinstall new one - that works.

But problem is with no HDMI output device. It completly disapier from iommu group after update. Radeon graphic still has HDMI audio node.

@philm please help with this one. Thanks

Cannot launch mugshot. "AttributeError: ‘ElementTree’ objects Has no attribute ‘getiterator’

This thread is not for trouble-shooting, please open a thread for you problem :wink:

Same here. Found this: #976245 - mugshot: Muhshot fails with AttributeError: 'ElementTree' object has no attribute 'getiterator' in console - Debian Bug report logs

mugshot is fixed. Wait for the update.

Hi @chaot,

honestly I don’t know if there will be a fix soon, but the workaround should be working if you’re using a gnome desktop and change the correct service files.

For progress in development, check the tickets in gnome-session project:


and

About the ticket you’ve mentioned:
I don’t know what a source of the problem is, but it sounded like that it could be related to that one. From the inxi output posted you can read that the system is using kde, therefore the same fix cannot be applied here.

Since I have an NVidia GeForce 9800 GT card, X wouldn’t start. Yes, I didn’t pay attention to the warning that old NVidia drivers got dropped. Just assumed that since I’m on LTS kernel (5.4) the drivers are not gonna be pulled from under me. This assumption was obviously wrong.

Since I didn’t want to build anything, I just went to the pacman cache directory and did

sudo pacman -U linux54-nvidia-340xx-340.108-80-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst lib32-nvidia-340xx-utils-340.108-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz nvidia-340xx-utils-340.108-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

For now X is working, though I don’t know how long it’s gonna last.

Hello, my steps to successful update from kernel 5.4, nVidia 440 (GeForce GTX 1060), GNOME:

  1. sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300
  2. Manjaro-Configuration (Manjaro-Einstellungsmanager) Select & Install video-nvidia
  3. reboot system
  4. Update system with sudo pacman -Syyu

Thanks manjaro team and happy new year. :grinning:

After merging (deleting) all .pacnew files from previous updates I updated today without a problem.

Kernel 5.9, AMD RX 470

After deleting all nvidia pcakages and installing video-nvidia, I could boot successfully. The only new issue I have now is that all entries of my grub are displayed twice, and grub customizer is no longer supported (unable to satisfy dependency ‘grub’ required by grub-customizer). Running os-prober and update-grub does not fix the issue either. But that is an issue for another thread I guess.

What I tested so far (Bluetooth, sound, WiFi card) seems to work flawlessly.

Hi everyone…

To @philm and team Manjaro especially!
After the latest stable update, I’ve discovered a nasty bug, which thankfully it seems to be reproducible. It happens in manjaro KDE plasma with kernel 5.4 LTS. (Nvidia - Intel Optimus Laptop)

When I try to copy a folder to a location which already has a folder with the same name, a dialogue appears asking me what i want to do (Skip - Megre Into - Cancel). So far so good. Typical KDE plasma stuff. When i click on “Apply to all” checkbox, the dialogue crashes, and no folder is merged with the existing one. Previously I was able to check on the “Apply to all” checkbox and then I could choose either Skip or “Merge Into”

OS: Manjaro KDE plasma (this update)
Kernel: 5.4 lts

This bug happens every time, and it is a critical one which needs to be fixed.
Please let me know, if someone else has this issue!

Hi

tested it with Kernel 5.9 and 5.10 and it crashes, thus same error here.

That’s good news actually!
We should be expecting a fix soon(?). Good to have systematic errors…
Thank you

I now boot into a snapshot that was made prior to the last stable update from last year with kernel 5.9. There was no error like now.
