A post was split to a new topic: A problem with file search in Dolphin

So everything worked for me, but the previous 2 weeks of awesome performance by dropping Firefox and moving to Firefox ESR, is now ruined. Even typing this is lagging. Scrolling reddit, FB etc, lagging. PC is practically unusable in Firefox now :confused:
Guessing it’s an Nvidia issue?

Here is a bit of random idea. Run nvidia-settings once and close it without changing anything. On my system with specific settings, it lags horribly, until I just open and close nvidia-settings. I even have it in my startup when booting into the system.

I have absolutely no idea why this is and what is happening there. And it could be very well that it does not help, but give it a shot.

I sometimes get a black screen when cold booting. Only cold booting.

Thinking of downgrading and locking the nvidia driver for the foreseeable future, since nvidia seems to be too incompetent to get their sh*t together. I already ignore it on Windows 10 too.

Regarding my missing microphone:

There have been several other topics about this issue in the last days.
The problem is fixed in the next testing update.I switched to testing and my mic came back.
If you don’t want to use testing, wait for the next stable update or try to find out which update caused the problem and downgrade the responsible package.

What’s still not working properly is suspend and resume on any kernel >5.10 (or >5.11.6).

For anyone looking for a fix for missing microphones after latest stable update, but unwilling to switch to testing branch, look here:

Note that in case you still have the “original” Manjaro packages in your pacman cache, using them might be a better option.

With a ThinkPad T14 Gen1 AMD: Internal microphone was not recognized anymore. Switched to testing branch, where it works as expected.

Is there a difference between Manjaro packages and Archlinux ones? Afaik for the same given version of a package there shouldn’t be a difference? (Might be wrong here).

I don’t know, tbh.
In many cases, they will probably be similar, but I’m pretty much a noob when it comes to this - I’m just assuming that using the original package is guaranteed to work in case of any adaptions done by the Manjaro team.

same for me.

The majority is coming from Arch indeed. There are also packages which are built by Manjaro though.

There are more or less 3 types of those:

  1. Manjaro specific apps (developed by Manjaro)
  2. Packages adopted from the AUR
  3. Packges that are also available from the Arch repositories, but built by Manjaro (e.g. for including custom code/patches)

Most of them you can find on gitlab.manjaro.org.

You can identify them by checking the “Packager” info from an ALPM package:

pacman -Si *package-name* |grep Packager

So I’m having intermittent issues after this update… not able to put a finger on it as journalctl really isn’t helping a lot…

And main problem is new intermittent freezes, hardlock with no response on numlock key or trying to enter tty2-3-4-5. Also manifests with new crashing in games, screen freezes for game but ALT-tab works albeit no mouse which I can recover from by killing steam application in cli. Game uses proton via steam, and only crashes under given scenes with hud alerts. (played 100+ hours on dying light on this rig and this just started recently after update)

thirdly I get a 20-30 second freeze (but recover) when entering Display settings (Gamma, Compositor etc) in System Settings. Journalctl posts this when it timeouts (hostname: snip’ed):

It’s not a dealbreaker, but I’d rather have the manjaro I have gotten to rely on as a daily driver back to full health.

Edit: typo on gamma.
Edit2: further explaining game crash, no hard freeze, recovering by killing application

Cannot use mmex (moneymanagerex) since this update upgraded it from 1.3.6-1 to 1.5.2-1. i get this message;

I’m fairly new to Manjaro and am loving it but I have no idea how to resolve this kind of error. Help, please.

It seems a known problem:

camposFabio
The memory problem returned. It appears something intermittent. There should be some leak somewhere. I’will try to debugg the code to find more info.
I rolled back do 1.3.6 and the problem is over.

Trying to update after I missed the previous update and I get:

Do I need to uninstall something before the update, and then install it later? If so, how?

There is information about this in the announcement:

Can you read the “Known issues and solutions” section at the beginning of this announcement, please?
It is there for that specific reason…

I immediately decided to use the search, and there was ZERO results (!?), so I didn’t bother to read the thread.

Sorry.
