It might be helpful to add an issue with libinput 1.20.0-1 to the list of known bugs. See https://forum.manjaro.org/t/media-keys-on-lenovo-keyboard-sk-8823-stopped-working/

My libvirt VM doesn’t start anymore - again (the previous upgrade also broke KVM/Qemu)

$ virsh -c qemu:///system start win10
error: Failed to start domain 'win10'

So, the user with id 959 is libvirt-qemu. My user christian has the same secondary group libvirt-qemu. Directory and files should be accessible by groups.

What’s wrong?

i cannot connect to the internet after this update, same as another user.
could someone please provide assistance over here?

A post was split to a new topic: Issues booting after leaving update to run overnight

During update, I got the following warnings on both machines:

==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: bfa
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: qed
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: qla1280
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: qla2xxx
==> WARNING: Possibly missing firmware for module: xhci_pci

The first four warnings appeared twice at least; however, so far everything appears to be working fine.

@philm already posted in the beginnning. arch has splitted the firmware to minimize the main firmware. these warnings are because this hardware is excluded from the firmware and only needed if you own this hardware. so in general you can ignore it. nothing to worry about.

A post was split to a new topic: After update I can no longer boot

[Solved]: see below:

For the first time ever since moving to Manjaro, I’ve got a badly broken system.

It appears to be to do with the Qt library problem mentioned at the top by Philm, but unfortunately rebuilding qt5-styleplugins didn’t fix the problem (I even tried removing that package).

KDE tries to start, but hangs for a long time on the splash screen, eventually hiding that to show a practically empty desktop with a crash handler.

For the time being I’ve restored from my pre-upgrade backup and I’ll analyse what I can find in the crash report to see if I can work out where the problem lies (I assume it’s another package I need to rebuild, though I can only find qt5-styleplugins installed from AUR mentioning Qt).

I’ll experiment on my fallback partition and report back here with any findings for anyone else having problems.

OK, from going through the crash report, and proving that a clean KDE profile loaded fine, I managed to work out that the problem was due to the Webslice widget on my desktop.

So I suggest removing any such widgets before upgrading (because it’s going to be hard to do so afterwards).

Unfortunately, although there’s a newer version of Webslice that can be downloaded, it doesn’t work after logging out then back in again, so is effectively useless.

Cheers, mate.

Good to know, and thanks for the info -I hadn’t read that bit and couldn’t make anything out of the warnings but thought it might be a good idea to mention it just in case, kind of thing.

My synaptics touchpad stopped working after updating, changing to this line in my grub config fixed it:

GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="i8042.nopnp"

same issue here:

Hey everyone,

since I installed this update, my system fails to boot into a graphical interface. From my troubleshooting I can tell that the nvidia kernel module fails to get initialized (I am using the proprietary driver). Here is XOrgs log file

I am kind of stuck here. Any advice?

EDIT: I did some further digging and I think the reason for this might be that, the kernel installed is 516.11, whereas linux-nvidia is built for 516.14. I chrooted into my installation and tried reinstalling the kernel, but I always receive 516.14, even though manjaro branch compare shows 516.14 as the current kernel. How can I install the 516.14 kernel?

EDIT 2: I found a solution! Seems there has been an issue with the mirror I used. Chrooting into my installation again, updating the mirrors and upgrading afterwards solved the issue.

Wine stopped to work with programs that were working for years.

I did a downgrade to wine-7.3 following this [forum dot winehq dot org]/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=34234 (downgrade didn’t work despite setting DOWNGRADE_FROM_ALA to 1).

Not your fault, as happens with the arch wine-stagging-7.4 too but I wanted to post it here just in case.

Does 21.2.4 ISO at Manjaro - Downloads equal to this update?

Installing this update has caused Lutris to crash with SEGV, pointing to executable python3.10. Also, steam games will not launch anymore. It is perpetually stuck on "Preparing to launch ". Its coredump lists the executable ~/.local/share/Steam/ubuntu12_64/vulkandriverquery as the SEGV when launching steam in the first place.

Update on this issue – looks like the problem here had to do with packages I was using involving Vulkan rendering – specifically GOverlay and its child packages vkBasalt and MangoHUD. Uninstalling these fixed the issue.

nope. That’s been there for a while.

I find a problem that could crash the kscreenlocker. Package qt5-virtualkeyboard-bigscreen is still using old Qt5.

Repository      : community
Name            : qt5-virtualkeyboard-bigscreen
Version         : 5.15.2+kde+r4-1

Archlinux has removed this package, so maybe Manjaro needs to do this as well.
A workaround for now is just uninstall it and install qt5-virtualkeyboard , then everything seems good.
