[Stable Update] 2021-01-19 - Kernels, XFCE, Plasma, PulseAudio, Pipewire, Mesa, Firefox, Thunderbird, KDE Apps

There are some minor cosmetic problems that I realized.

  • xfce4-power-manager system tray icons are different from my choosen icon package. It wasn’t changed when I’d chosen a different icon package, it uses the same icon whatever I choose things.
    Downgrade package is resolve the problem for temporary.
  • Standard favorite apps seen on Whisker Menu has disappeared.
    I did not do anything.

As far as I can see, the update went fine on three computers:
1 * KDE and 2 * XFCE.

Thanks!

Yes, I rebuilt teamviewer but the crash still occurs. I’ll follow your advice and report to the bugtracker too.
Edit: Found an open bug report on this at Status Notifier crashes opening TeamViewer 13 o 14 (#6) · Issues · Panel Plugins / xfce4-statusnotifier-plugin · GitLab

After this update, on reboot I have :
Failed to start load kernel modules
and the system stop.
I don’t know to fix that.

After doing

pacman -Syyu

I get

error: gptfdisk: signature from "Evangelos Foutras <evangelos@foutrelis.com>" is invalid :: File /var/cache/pacman/pkg/gptfdisk-1.0.6-1-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst is corrupted (invalid or corrupted package (PGP signature)). Do you want to delete it? [Y/n]

Help appreciated.

On the upstream there is a fix for the xfce panel: statustray: Prevent crash when parsing properties (Fixes #379) (e4616236) · Commits · Xfce / xfce4-panel · GitLab
which has been appplyed two weeks ago; can you consider to push it on Manjaro’s branches?

Sorry: maybe is not related:

Everything went fine, apart from a broken power icon on XFCE.

Internal microphone down after the update.
Tried solving with ArchWiki/PulseAudio/TroubleShooting/Microphone_not_detected, now the microphone can be detected, but no sound can be recorded.
Working on it…

Tried to update using discover, and end up in this. Any solution? Sorry if I have made any mistake.

sudo pacman-mirrors --country “your country or a near one”
sudo pacman -Syyuu
Fixed the problem for me

Updated just now, no issues.

Is the black screen bug on boot with AMD and kernel 5.10 still persist?

Edit: nvm I saw it still persists, so I’m stuck in 5.9 for now unfortunatelly :confused:

Thank you that solved my problem too :smiley:

Update went smooth af on Manjaro KDE from the 2020-12-30 update. Thanks!

Such a huge update for me!
And no problem so far on xfce!

Thank you Manjaro team!

I have now an ugly power icon on XFCE. How can I get the previous one back?

Firefox Developer Edition is having problems. When I would try to run it by clicking the icon it wouldn’t open and the “force quit” popup would appear. When ran from the terminal here is the output.

I have downgraded to an earlier release.

EDIT: Upgraded again then restarted my system and everything works fine.

Regarding the icon for xfce4-power-manager in the panel, the issue has already been reported by philm:

And this is the same issue reported upstream in Xfce:
