[Stable Update] 2021-03-08- Kernels, Plasma 5.21.2, Haskell, Kodi, Grub, KDE-Dev

after edit etc/default/grub all is ok


With new chromium 89 : not a bug but a feature :smile: connection to google account is no longer possible

A post was split to a new topic: Icons in System Tray are not normally visible

I also had the GRUB issue and the weird thing is al of a sudden I had an Ubuntu boot option in my BIOS and in the output of sudo efibootmgr -v
Never installed Ubuntu, had a KDE Neon install in the past but I’m 100% sure I already removed all unnecessary boot options in the past.
I have a dual boot system, Manjaro KDE and Manjaro i3 on seperate drives with each their own bootloader.
After adding the GRUB_DISABLE_OS_PROBER=false to GRUB, reinstalling GRUB on both drives, updating GRUB, running mkinitcpio -P and deleting all unwanted entries in efibootmgr the system seems stable again.

Now I finally can have a bite to eat cause I’m starving!

Update works fine without any problems.
Thanks to the manjaro-team!

It was a flawless update until I rebooted a second time and noticed my system was booting up straight to Manjaro :neutral_face:

Oh man! my significant would have killed me if she was not able to boot up Windows (I don’t care in my case anyway) :joy:

Adding the line in the GRUB config and running grub-mkconfig and then update-grub as others suggested above worked for me, so no Timeshift for now. :slightly_smiling_face:

To the Team, thanks again. Looks like you guys have been busy rolling out updates every two weeks. What about a little break for summer?? :+1:

Everything went fine. KDE desktop with AMD GPU.
Full support for your right to declare your beliefs, and this case complete support those beliefs as well.

Like many other people, I had to re-enable OS prober 'cause I dual boot with Win10. It’s fine now.

Thank you! Same problem here with Grub. This solved the problem :slight_smile:

Thanks @Hefty for the tip.

Had the same problem. I uninstalled npm and then updated everything. Now I have a problem with installing npm again. It says:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)

Same solution for the same issue. Thank you very much! Now everything works fine ! :+1:

Manjaro 20.2.1 XFCE 4.16 with Kernel 5.10 and 5.4 (both with nvidia 340.xx driver): Updated and solved GRUB problem (display and addition of OS prober line). Kernel 5.10.19.1 works perfect, kernel 5.4.101.1 does not work (I will wait for a new update to appear)

Hey, had and still have some issues. First the update didn’t seem to complete properly eventhou it said it did. I had an input output error and couldnt do anything. After a restart only windows was able to start. I chroot with a livedisk and checked the update, pacman db was locked i unlocked it and completed it. Now Grub works again, but Manjaro doesnt start, i only see Manjaro and three dots, first they move then they stopped. I already tried grub-install but that doesnt return anything, i tried pacman -Syyu again, it says that there is an update for grub but i can’t update it because "Grub: file usr/lib/ some files (Many files) is empty or something like that… Can somebody help me pls? I am not so good with linux tbh so pls explain everything step by step :slight_smile:

Flameshot tray icon is a circle with an ‘i’ instead of the proper icon.

Philip, you are a true gentleman :wink:

Congratz to all ladies!

The update went smooth, no problems. :slight_smile:

I seem to have a problem with conflicting pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio packages.

looking for conflicting packages…
:: pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio are in conflict. Remove pulseaudio? [y/N] y
:: pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio-bluetooth are in conflict. Remove pulseaudio-bluetooth? [y/N] error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: removing pulseaudio breaks dependency ‘pulseaudio=14.2-2’ required by pulseaudio-equalizer
:: removing pulseaudio breaks dependency ‘pulseaudio=14.2-2’ required by pulseaudio-jack
:: removing pulseaudio breaks dependency ‘pulseaudio=14.2-2’ required by pulseaudio-lirc
:: removing pulseaudio breaks dependency ‘pulseaudio=14.2-2’ required by pulseaudio-rtp
:: removing pulseaudio breaks dependency ‘pulseaudio=14.2-2’ required by pulseaudio-zeroconf

But if I choose not to remove:

looking for conflicting packages…
:: pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio are in conflict. Remove pulseaudio? [y/N] n
error: unresolvable package conflicts detected
error: failed to prepare transaction (conflicting dependencies)
:: pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio are in conflict

Which leaves me in an interesting Catch-22 situation which I’m not sure how to get out of, though I’ll do some experimentation tomorrow on my playground system image and report back.

[EDIT]: I deleted pulseaudio then the upgrade ran successfully. I still have audio, but I see it’s now provided by pipewire-pulse rather than pulse.

When I rebooted the computer GRUB didn’t show up. But when I downgraded it, from 2.04-18 back to 2.04-16, it worked just fine.

Thank you, that helped a LOT!

Thank you Team, smooth update KDE 5.11 here.

Also, the intentional block on OS_Prober and avid immediate discussion how to update Grub here is exactly why I abandoned my thirty year addiction to W five years ago and never looked back.
