Odd … after the fourth reboot it worked out.
i heard pamac has a small bug its better to use sudo pacman -Syu i always use the terminal and never have an issue
System76 Oryx Pro running Manjaro KDE
Update went very smooth. The download was slow, but that’s probably a demand issue. Restarted and updated the Kernel. After restart 5.11 shows as installed but not running. Probably inexperience here, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to make it active.
optimus-manager-qt requires optimus-manager 1.4,you need to wait for Manjaro to update the one in the repos to 1.4 and then you update the optimus-manager-qt,so wait for now.

Did you select the kernel in the GRUB?
Got it. Thanks! And no, I did not select it in GRUB. My past experience has been that it just chooses the most recent kernel. I’ve never had to manually change it.
- I replaced mesa-git and lib32-mesa-git with mesa and lib32-mesa respectively.
- Updated system
- Then replaced mesa and lib32-mesa with mesa-git (AUR) and lib32-mesa-git (AUR) respectively.
(the community/multilib versions are only named “git” but have nothing to do with “git” really)
the new KDE start menu is now a lot less easy to use
Check this post I made on Testing branch, it is easy to get the old one back
I made a tutorial actually
Plasma 5.21 brought a new version of the Application Menu (called KickOff internally). To get the previous version back, it is simple, two possibilities: Automatic Installation Install ocs-url from the Arch User Repository, from terminal run pamac build ocs-url (or use your preferred AUR helper) Go to the KDE Store page Legacy Kickoff - KDE Store. Click the Install button on top right corner, and click the kickoff plasmoid file In the popup that appears, click INSTALL, it will ask t…
No issues on reboot. However I noticed that the icons on the new plasma taskbar are bigger than before. I ran xrandr because I thought the update changed my res but confirmed that’s not the issue.
How do I change the icon size of the apps on the taskbar? I don’t see the option in the menus when I right the bar.
Also it’s only the app icons on the left side of the bar the right side icons are expected size. Was this done by the plasma team on purpose?
Same issue here, for me I uninstalled ksysguard and I think that might be part of the problem. After installing it back I notice that plasma-desktop wasn’t installed so I did it and I got almost everything back. Had to mess around a bit to get latte-dock back, but everything seems to be working now.
Hope it helps.
Yep, exactly that I also uninstalled ksysguard to go and install the new system monitor (only to learn ksysguard is a dependency on plasma-systemmonitor). Plasma-desktop was dependent on ksysguard. My fault for not reading when removing packages.
Thanks for the help
Dude you need to look what it uninstalls when you uninstall one package and you see a bunch of other packages…
pamac remove ksysguard
Preparing...
Checking dependencies...
To remove (5):
plasma-desktop 5.21.1-1 extra
accountsservice 0.6.55-3 extra
polkit-kde-agent 5.21.1-1 extra
plasma-systemmonitor 5.21.1-1 (Depends On: ksysguard) extra
ksysguard 5.21.1-1 extra
//EDIT: at least you have the list of what you probably removed now. You should use TimeShift to create system backup, in case of ‘dumb’ things like that, sometimes you can really mess the system to a difficult state to recover. TimeShift allows you to go back to previous system state
I’ll for sure take a closer look next time, haven’t used Linux in a while and decided to give Manjaro a go, it’s been great until this minor issue. Thanks!
Running KDE 5.10 kernel and everything went smooth
Most everything went well as far as I can tell except for one issue. The issue was that the screen seemed to be minutely/rapidly moving up and down; maybe 1 pixel up/down. It was most noticeable when I had something open such as Alacrity, Konsole, Firefox, Libreoffice, etc.
A few weeks ago I was giving EndeavourOS a test drive (luckily as it turns out) and remember someone posting about the same issue after Plasma 5.21 was released. EndeavourOS Forum post: “Since 5.21 there are glitches or something like that on my screen” The fix is from post #7 The fix. I tried the first suggestion, and it seems to have worked (after a reboot). Also, I’m using on board (Intel) graphics (I assume that’s relevant):
Graphics: Device-1: Intel Xeon E3-1200 v3/4th Gen Core Processor Integrated Graphics vendor: Hewlett-Packard driver: i915 v: kernel bus ID: 00:02.0 chip ID: 8086:0412 class ID: 0300 Display: x11 server: X.Org 1.20.10 compositor: kwin_x11 driver: loaded: intel resolution: 1920x1080~60Hz s-dpi: 96 OpenGL: renderer: llvmpipe (LLVM 11.1.0 256 bits) v: 4.5 Mesa 20.3.4 compat-v: 3.1 direct render: Yes
Reminder for anyone that runs kwin-lowlatency to switch to normal kwin from the official repo before upgrading otherwise your gonna get a freeze when you try to login. Had the same issue and it was resolved by installing normal kwin before restarting for the update.
Small screen artifacts when selecting text or clicking buttons (ie. pin button of krunner).
This has not happened before.
I’m currently running 5.11
kernel but I’m unable to remove the 5.10
kernel.
I’m getting this error:
:: removing linux510 breaks dependency 'linux510' required by linux-latest
:: removing linux510-headers breaks dependency 'linux510-headers' required by linux-latest-headers
Shouldn’t linux-latest
point to linux511
instead of linux510
?
same here.
Same here too
optimus-manager-qt requires optimus-manager 1.4,you need to wait for Manjaro to update the one in the repos to 1.4 and then you update the optimus-manager-qt,so wait for now.
that’s what i thought after looking around a bit and seeing both optimus-manager-qt and optimus-manager got updated on their respective Github page.
do you mind looking at my thread and explain to me why in Pamac, optimus-manager seems to be installed both from Aur and official repos?
i just did the 28.2 update through Pamac and it failed to update optimus-manager and optimus-manager-qt. when i refresh the Database it tries to build both of them from the AUR,but my optimus-manager is from the official repository.also i clicked apply by mistake,but it failed anyway. how do i update both? [Screenshot_20210228_200931] Edit i removed optimus-manager-qt for the time being,but i don’t understand why pamac shows optimus-manager both from the AUR and official repo as installed …
