grub seems to have borked something, i switched to linux512 and removed linux58 and linux511 but grub still thinks linux58 is installed.
$ mhwd-kernel -li
Currently running: 5.12.1-2-MANJARO (linux512)
The following kernels are installed in your system:
* linux510
* linux512
* linux54
yet
Found linux image: /boot/vmlinuz-5.8-x86_64
Found initrd image: /boot/amd-ucode.img /boot/initramfs-5.8-x86_64.img
Found initrd fallback image: /boot/initramfs-5.8-x86_64-fallback.img
well did not something break, as every time previously it has been removed automatically? Maybe incompatibility between mhwd-kernel or grub and linux512 ?
No.
The package removal of a kernel package should trigger a pacman hook (/usr/share/libalpm/hooks/60-mkinitcpio-remove.hook) which in turn calls the /usr/share/libalpm/scripts/mkinitcpio-remove script which should remove those remnants.
Donât know what went wrong on your system.
Am I the only who has problems with âPrint Screenâ button after this update?
On KDE, âPrint Screenâ button on keyboard does nothing now (it used to capture screenshots with Spectacle in the past). I even re-configured keyboard shortcuts via settings - no luck. No matter what I do, âPrint Screenâ button alone doesnât work anymore. If I configure shortcut to use SOME_OTHER_BUTTON + âPrint Screenâ, it works fine.
My Manjaro Gnome PC doesnât boot after the update. It had kernel 5.9 on it and it said it was removing it but I guess it didnât replace it with anything? Just reading the notes here and yeah I guess itâs end of life now. I usually have LTS kernels but I guess I forgot to change it after a new install a few months back.
Anyway Iâve got a UEFI install and it just hangs at the motherboard manufacturerâs logo screen. I can reboot with Ctrl + Alt + Del but that seems like about it. Should I boot from install media and jump into my current install and do something?
Thank you, your config is exactly the same as mine. for some reason, it doesnât work for me, no matter if Spectacle is running or not. Worked just fine in the pastâŠ
After some more tests, I now believe itâs related to Spectacle itself. Even after I open it manually, clicking âTake a new Screenshotâ sometimes closes Spectacle. I mean not minimizing to tray or showing a selection window for screenshot, but closing the app. When I re-open Spectacle manually, it instantly gets minimized and displays a selection window for screenshot.
I havenât forgotten that, but the 5.10 kernel is deliberately not recommended for now
The reason is that it has not yet achieved sufficient stability and a lot is still being tinkered with.
You can see it in the many fixes - kernel updates come twice a week.
So it doesnât matter if I set the kernel to recommended - that doesnât make it any better.
Firefox just does not allow me to search after restart or boot for couple min. internet connectivity is not an issue as chromium works fine and all any other internet apps just work
maybe linux-latest should be renamed linux-latest-lts to prevent confusions? Then also a linux-latest could be provided as convenience, and the dependencies currently for it could move over to -lts
You are right.
For me, for example, the 5.10 kernel is malfunctioning with my trackpad touchpad (Lenovo Thinkpad). Sometimes it is erroneously recognized as a mouse and I have to restart with modprobe: modprobe -r psmouse modprobe psmouse
However, I found the 5.10 kernel already installed in the latest manjaro iso.
Perhaps the iso should only contain a stable LTS kernel. A manjaro newbie may not know that you can install more than one kernel and maybe leave manjaro after seeing that as soon as installed it doesnât work well âŠ
Probably some extension or theme is not working good.
Have you tried to start Firefox in safe mode and disabling each extension, one at a time, to find the culprit? This link may help you.

The reason for this is that the kernel 5.4 (last LTS) unfortunately causes problems with AMD CPUs.
Thatâs why we opted for kernel 5.10 - despite the shortcomings.
After the update my Xorg crashes. I found the problem to be the libepoxy package (upgrading from version 1.5.5 to 1.5.7 to be exact). Anyone else experiencing such issue? (KDE, AMDGPU)
