I had a a problem wit python 3.9 update
python: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.8.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Was “solved” linking the library from python 3.9
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libpython3.9.so.1.0 /usr/lib/libpython3.8.so.1.0

Now works fine

❯ python -V
Python 3.9.1

No it’s not:

Switch to a console using Ctrl+Alt+F2
Log in as Admin user
Execute:
```
sudo -s
```
to become root

execute:

diff --side-by-side /root/.zshrc.pacnew /root/.zshrc

See if you need to copy-paste anything from /root/.zshrc.pacnew to /root/.zshrc.
If you don’t, just delete the .pacnew
if yes, please use your favourite CLI editor to incorporate the changes (nano, vi, emacs) Not Kate / Gedit / Atom / …
exit the root prompt ASAP as that’s the way to ~~totally fùçk up~~ seriously mess up your system.

A post was split to a new topic: Errors after update

Alright!

For all of you having black screen with AMD GPU with kernel 5.10

For GRUB:

Open a terminal/TTY (alt+f2)
Enter sudo nano /etc/default/grub
Find the line: GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="
Add amdgpu.dc=0
Save, then run sudo update-grub

For systemd-boot:

Open a terminal/TTY (alt+f2)
Enter sudo nano /boot/loader/entries/manjarolinux5.10.conf
Add amdgpu.dc=0 to the end of the line options
Save & reboot!

Hope this helps!
It is a bug in the latest AMD drivers…

Fabby · 31 December 2020 01:25

Try again from a command line:

pamac upgrade

D.Dave · 31 December 2020 01:26

Kernel 4.14, Xfce.
All fine: I had to do the usual system maintenances to check pac files and rebuild AUR packages; however, now in the journal logs, I see a new warning:
systemd[1004]: -.slice: Failed to migrate controller cgroups from /user.slice/user-1000.slice/user@1000.service, ignoring: Permission denied

Which seems to need this Grub parameter:
systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=true
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=261330

I will try and report back.
EDIT:
Yes: I needed to add systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=true to grub to get rid of such error, but I’d like to know if it is ok.

The_Quantum_Alpha · 31 December 2020 01:26

Oh, thanks, but already updated… Wouldn’t even be able to run this, as pamac partially uninstalled itself for some reasons…

But sweet, all issues are fixed for me, now!!

Fabby · 31 December 2020 01:33

Your theme is not compatible any more… Try another one…

pietlu · 31 December 2020 01:35

Ah, ok, thanks.

Do I get that corrrectly: Commenting out that grub line would prevent the warning to appear, but also prevent the usage of systemd-fsck?
So I can ignore this warning?

Fabby · 31 December 2020 01:36

5.9 is EOL. Try 5.4 LTS (Long Term Support) Instead…

Nostradamus · 31 December 2020 01:36

Works…
Thank You…

~~Editing that into the known issues right now.~~
Edited in (with some minor modifications)

Pinkisjustnumbers · 31 December 2020 01:49

I am happy to say everything works sweetly!!

The AMD GPU driver did not work, but with the fabulous help of @The_Quantum_Alpha, it is up and running!!

Thank you for Manjaro updates

Wish a sweet sweet day!

Yochanan · 31 December 2020 01:51

Do NOT do that. Whatever AUR package you ran that produced that error needs to be rebuilt.

oguere · 31 December 2020 01:54

Hi,

I had a small issue, the bpython interpreter got uninstalled for some reasons, so I tried to reinstall it, there was a few file conflicts but removing them was enough to solve it, everything is back to normal now.

Also there is something I find weird :
I had nvidia 450 driver installed so far, and when I run mhwd -l, it’s not listed anymore in the avaiable drivers, which means it should have been uninstalled, but nvidia-smi tells me that 450 is still here, I also did a short test with pytorch and everything works fine, any explanation ?

@Fabby Thanks, that helps me
