Well, I’ll wait for a update, hope it doesn’t take to long to patch the file manager, because I’m seeing more freezing window from the dolphin manager in the last 2 days.

Open up Tweaks > Appearance and change Shell from Matcha-whatever to ‘default’ or one of the Adwaita variants.

Should look more normal icon size then. Seems to be a bug in all the Matcha theme variants.

@donald Wine 6.6 has been released to Unstable. They claim it is fixed in 6.6

At least for me the last update broke the screenshare functionality over Pipewire again when using Wayland as the window manager protocol.
I tested it with Firefox and Chromium and in both cases the window where the screen should appear just stays black.

However in contrast to the last update which was fixed by uncommenting the “metadata” line (Pipewire 1:0.3.22-1: Screen Sharing does not work (#768) · Issues · PipeWire / pipewire · GitLab), this time there is no error visible when executing journalctl --user -u pipewire.

Does anybody else experience the same behaviour?

And this GDB error also still exists: [CRITICAL BUG] GDB broken with last stable update

I have the same isue with spanish keyboard layout in kde.

Sound level does not change synchronous with change in the level bar. It’s only changing after key up event, if I’m not wrong it was changing while onchange event is running before the update. By the way, there’s a latency after any change of sound level it waits in range (1, 2).

Environment: GNOME

I am using Kernel 5.11 and KDE,
The problem I encountered is too small sound, people can help me fix audio problems,
Thanks everyone

Was this introduced with Kernel 5.11 for you?
Otherwise, see if, when opening the sound applet in the panel, the checkbox for “Increase maximum sound volume” is checked. I found the sound in KDE to be a bit on the lower side and with that setting turned on, you can increase the volume beyond 100%.

Fixed!. This time it was easy, these two actions helped me to solve this situation:

  1. I just had to rename the folder “~/.local/share/applications” and create an empty one (This deletes favorite applications from the menu)

mv ~/.local/share/applications ~/.local/share/applications-off1
mkdir ~/.local/share/applications

  1. Rename the “database” file into ~/.local/share/kactivitymanagerd/resources/

$ mv ~/.local/share/kactivitymanagerd/resources/databases ~/.local/share/kactivitymanagerd/resources/databases-off1

The database file was recreated and is now smaller.

Then I restart my computer and now the menu works perfectly.

Note added on 2021/4/16:

At home I have another older and updated Manjaro installation, this solution did not work.
I had to recreate my home folder:

From console #2 (as root) I rename my previous home folder
# mv /home/sysone /home/sysone.bak
re-create:
# mkdir /home/sysone
and take ownership:
# chown sysone:sysone /home/sysone
Then I move everything except some folders like: .cache, .kde4 and some others inside .local/share; from inside .config I ignore some like bauh.
I can do that as a normal user:
$ move /home/sysone.bak/"the folders I want" /home/sysone
This took me at most 10 minutes, carefully.

This is easier if the main folder in home has no disorganized files.

This is getting to be a habit, I will have to create a script for this task, as suggested in another post.
Regards

This should be prioritized as openning the network manager in manjaro gnome freezes the system completely because the cancel button is not working

I downloaded Manjao Gnome from the new mirrors this afternoon an they worked great. This time I got 75MB/sek, not 90kb/sek like last week. Installed on VB / openSuse TW and it seams to work right out of the box. Keyboard and screen resolution does not need config. I will test this out because i usually running Manjaro KDE & openSUSE Tumleweed KDE. Grat work from the Manjaro team

Probably due to there being less traffic utilizing the server therefore lessening the load on the server and on the servers internet connection, making more resources available to you.

Makes one heck of a difference.

Last week the mirrors was hosted on Sourceforge and was very slow. This week they were hosted somewere else. I read it on Twitter yesterday , that the mirrors was changed. And now they are fast :slightly_smiling_face:

Getting a handful of errors when I try to upgrade with
archlinux-appstream-data:/usr/share/app-info/icons/*** and pipewire:…/libspa-vulkan.so

If someone knows a quick fix before I start deleting things, much appreciated

5.4 LTS, gnome, stable

A post was split to a new topic: Is Manjaro now using pipewire?

Have been running fine and did the recommended updates in the update manager this morning. After reboot I can login properly but just get a black screen with my mouse able to move around. I’m newer to Linux but I’m suspecting an issue with the nvidia driver? I’ve been hunting for a solution all morning. Any help would be much appreciated!

I have the same issue, you are not alone.

There is the known bug report:
