Updating caused plasma to appear to hang on the splash screen. I used alt+tab after some time and found that my autostart applications like steam, spotify, and discord had all launched, but the rest of my DE (panels, wallpaper, etc.) were missing. Just black screens behind the applications. Using the hotkey for krunner opened it correctly and allowed me to open konsole. Opening ksystemlog from there I can see numerous errors whenever I try to kstart5 plasmashell
After reading through the thread you linked I think I have a guess at what happened
The update ran as expected up to the point it reached the kernel update
At this point, it succeeded in moving the kernel to .old but failed to install the new version of the kernel
The update process locked up at this point, and upon rebooting, there was no longer any kernel to boot with
I managed to install a kernel using the manjaro live CD and chroot but I think the install is still good and scuffed. I can reach the command line but the graphical environment fails to load, and frankly trying to diagnose X problems is a bit over my head. I tried starting the desktop environment using startxfce4 but it just fails after about a minute. I could get the exact error but not at the moment.
I donāt think Iām experiencing the exact problem that was linked there. I think what tipped me off that it was something I did was the following post [root tip] Update Manjaro the smart way
I could be wrong though. Unfortunately I think the smoking gun is long gone now. I tried to dd my disk for later inspection before getting into it but I guess it failed? Itās just one of those days I guess. Canāt say I didnāt make mistakes here. I guess itās a cautionary tale, now.
I restarted and verified this is persistent. I am on plasmawayland using this latest updateās nvidia proprietary drivers on a 1080ti. It seems this update has weird nvidia things as usual.
After the update, the reboot process got stuck at the āLoading Manjaro 249.6-3ā screen, the DE never loaded. After a cold reboot, same issue.
Then I loaded the 5.4 kernel, and it correctly loaded into the DE.
After checking that everything works on 5.4, I shut down the machine and restarted it, this time with 5.10 again.
And voila, it works perfectly fine!
Ah, the fun of having almost-bleeding-edge updates
I figured out my issue with Dolphin not displaying āRemovable Devicesāā¦ apparently it was treating the entire section/place as āHiddenā. The fix has 2 parts:
Right-click the left-pane (in a blank area) and check āShow Hidden Placesā from the context menuā¦ this restored the āRemovable Devicesā grouping (and its device list) so we can see it and make the next change
Right-click the now visible āRemovable Devicesā section heading and uncheck āHide Section āRemovable Devicesāā
yes! I figured the second part out and updated my post (apparently we were cross-posting ). what I found was slightly differentā¦ unhiding the section itselfā¦ now all USB sticks pop in like they should (and used to)
Using bumblebee with Nvidia driver: linux510-nvidia-390xx (390.144-28)
Error shown with glxgears:
$ optirun glxgears
[ 61.187032] [ERROR]Cannot access secondary GPU - error: [XORG] (EE) NVIDIA: Use the -ignoreABI option to override this check.
[ 61.187083] [ERROR]Aborting because fallback start is disabled.
The solution for me was to edit /etc/bumblebee/xorg.conf.nvidia and add the device BusID (from lspci) and a ServerFlags section with the Option āIgnoreABIā ā1ā. 30-nvidia-ignoreabi.conf inside /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/ does not work for me.
Having a graphical error after updating yesterday. Certain icons such as my microphone in the tray when itās active, forward and back buttons in Dolphin, and some others have changed in colour to a blackish-grey.
Manjaro Gnome on Wayland.
Update went fine. However when I changed the Kernel from 5.13 to 5.15, rebooted, but the login wonāt go through. Basically enter login password, press Enter, it looked as if Desktop going to load however the login screen would re-appear again.
Rebooted into Gnome Classic - worked fine.
Rebooted - changed to Gnome - worked fine finally.
Thanks for all the hard work - been using Manjaro Gnome on my daily driver laptop for sometime.
The update totally broke my display manager -I was able to get into a TTY, but none of the proposed solutions I found did anything at all. Iām now reinstalling -cross your fingers.
On my laptop, it went smooth as silk, though.
Reinstall seems to have worked.
Hello! I seem to be having trouble connecting a controller via Bluetooth since the update. The System Settings show that Bluetooth is disabled and cannot be enabled, but systemctl status bluetooth shows that bluetooth is enabled and running. Iāve looked around but canāt seem to find a solution, any ideas? Thank you!
Edit: Switching to Kernel 5.14.18-1 fixes the Bluetooth problem, I still havenāt found a solution for 5.15.2-2. This does seem to be a bug of some kind related to the kernel but I canāt seem to figure out what specifically
I had to go in " settings / Keyboard / View and Customize Shortcuts / System and set my shortcut again for ālock screenā. However, it was already set to the same keyboard shortcut as before. Itās now working fine.
After upgrading I can no longer log in. Cinnamon throws me back to the login screen.
$ cat .xsession-errors
[cinnamon-settings-daemon-smartcard] Failed to start: no suitable smartcard driver could be found
[cinnamon-settings-daemon-smartcard] Failed to start: no suitable smartcard driver could be found
Iāve reinstalled Manjaro from scratch which worked. Also upgrading to the 4.15 kerne still worked.
Applying the updates again breaks everything.
Iām all out of ideas at this pointā¦
Has anyone at least an idea where so search for a solution?
After a while, in this case webbrowsing on firefox, the whole background desktop turns grey and the only thing i can do is reboot again or logout and login again. Im on a intelnuc8i5beh. I use manjaro gnome.
