[Stable Update] 2021-12-16 - Kernels, KDE Gear 21.12.0, Gnome Extensions, LibreOffice

Everything went well, except the Manjaro logo of Whisker which disappeared replaced by that of Xfce, and the favorites to replace they had returned as during a new installation.
Once everything is replaced as before, it’s ok.

if i open news it copy a file and show wine icon

I am using a “Roccat Ryos MK Pro” on Kernel "5.15.7-1, so it is not a common brand issue. As a sidenote, i have also installed roccat-tools-ryosmk roccat-tools-common from the AUR (off course there is one for “-iskufx” too). I wonder what has changed in the new Kernel version, that your keyboard seemingly worked with the change. Did you have any of the drivers from AUR installed? Did your keyboard worked before and stopped working with the update?

Nice, finally a kernal update that gets off 5.13. First thing I always did under a new manjaro install was go to 515 cause there were critical things broken out of the box in 513.

You can configure it to meet your preferences: [Stable Update] 2021-12-10 - Kernels, Systemd, LibreOffice, Plasma, Browser, Thunderbird - #86 by alven
or switch command interpreter back to bash in user profile settings of terminal emulator.

Well i have configured it with powerlevel10k which shows additional symbols for e.g. home directory or an hourglass after the time it took to execute the command. Worked fine till the last update. Now these symbols are missing and only a generic replacement character is shown. I thought perhaps powerline fonts have been uninstalled but that seems not to be the case.

EDIT: OK i solved it … i had to use my own profile as breath profile is not writable, set the shell to zsh and the font to MesloLGS NF 10 Regular. Now the symbols are shown again:

I tied this earlier but i did not realize that the font was not saved in breath profile.

Yeah it stopped working with the update. I checked out the installed roccat packages: roccat-tools-common, roccat-tools-iskufx, roccat-tools-isku, kmod-roccat as AUR. I now removed komd-roccat as it seemed not necessary. I also reinstalled the 5.15.7-1 Kernel. Now 5.15.7-1 works fine again. Weird :slight_smile:

Yeah… I have that problem too, some icons in Pamac suddenly become too small…

kmod-roccat is a Kernel module for the old kone ROCCAT. Also have a look if you really need roccat-tools-isku, as you have “iskufx” already installed. For me it never stopped working, that is why I guess there was a conflict with a driver for a hardware you don’t have installed.

To be honest I’m no expert in linux sound configurations, the possibilities seem endless; recent code commits and configuration changes within sof etc. I suppose updating to latest and reverting all the alsa packages to their predecessors might seem a reasonable start.

A post was split to a new topic: Update hung installing updates

the 12-16 update does not solve my problem posted here

Fn F8 -F9 does not dim or increase brightness in my Samsung Amoled Display, sound control and keyboard backlit both they works (Tnx to tuxedo-keyboard) it seems I’m back to kernel 5.10 where the control was not functioning. Kernels 5.11 to 5.13 managed controls perfectly

After the update I have a degraded stability of the system. Sound stops a few minutes after system launch. Sound menu shows no sound input or output devices. Apps that related to sound hang. Firefox randomly hangs.

just updated in the morning everything is fine. try reloading your .zshrc or switch to nerd font

I wonder if we should report this elsewhere, an upstream repo perhaps.

Hmm do you know in which package the Hack Nerd Font is located? Seems i cannot select that … only “normal” Hack.

its in the aur

sudo pacman -S nerd-fonts-hack

After the update, GDM stopped recognizing the Wayland session. Gnome only starts in the X session, and Weston is not visible. This effect occurred on 7 computers I service (2 nvidia-properitary driver, 3 nvidia-opensource driver and 2 amd-radeon opensource driver). Do you have any idea how to fix this more quickly?
(At tty session weston starts normally.)

Hmm … doesn’t work well with my custom configuration but Manjaro default seems to be good now.

On my first reboot after updating WiFi was not working at all, strangely one more reboot and all started working again.

What I did noticed is that I now get a kernel fault:
