My Wi-Fi stopped working after this update (amd microcode was updated with this).

Any ideas what could be the culprit? Is someone else having this issue as well? Did anyone manage to fix? Should I rollback?

EDIT: Managed to fix by disabling powersave mode both on NetworkManager (also got updated with this) and on modprobe.

Wrote these configs to disable powersave mode

$ cat /etc/modprobe.d/iwlwifi.conf
options iwlwifi power_save=0
$ cat /etc/NetworkManager/conf.d/default-wifi-powersave-off.conf
[connection]
wifi.powersave = 2

# NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_DEFAULT (0): use the default value
# NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_IGNORE  (1): don't touch existing setting
# NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_DISABLE (2): disable powersave
# NM_SETTING_WIRELESS_POWERSAVE_ENABLE  (3): enable powersave

NetworkManager can’t connect L2TP VPN after the upgrade. Here is a part of output from ‘journalctl -u NetworkManager’.

Once I only downgrade NetworkManager (1.36.2-1 → 1.34.0.1), it works well as before.
I suspect new one fails to communicate with xl2tpd.

thanks.

Hi,
Can I ask if your users belong to libvirt group? I added my users to libvirt group before as suggested by ArchWiki, and it seems that I don’t have the permission issue after this upgrade. The ownership of the qcow2 file for my qemu://system VM is root:root.
I noticed that this update of libvirt created new user and group called libvirt-qemu, but I don’t see any update on the ArchWiki about using it yet.

Here, sane does not work anymore on hpio after the update. scanimage -L finds the scanner but then trying to scan results in an “open of device hpaio:/net…” failed: Error during device I/O". Just found the problem, will try to investigate the reason.

76

This was mostly smooth, but I had to re-pair a couple of bluetooth headsets. Not sure why, could be bluez or pipewire related.

77

Downgrading hplip to previous version via downgrade fixes the scanning issue on HP devices connected on the network via hpaio:

78

the NetworkManager update broke my WiFi connection.
downgrading NetworkManager to 1.34.0.1 fixed it.

I had only one problem regarding the upgrade, wine7.3 staging to wine7.4 staging. I play overwatch via Lutris with the wine staging version. After the update the game didn’t register my (usb) keyboard. So it wouldn’t register my keys that I pushed.

The solution for me was to downgrade to wine7.3 staging and it can register the keys that I pressed again. Anyone else had a similar problem?

81

Just upgrade to newest update. SpeedCrunch and qpdfview are no longer working.
Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.2) with this library (5.15.3) Aborted (core dumped)
Followed sudo pacman-mirrors -f 5 && sudo pacman -Syyu
Got no help.

82

See second post for troubleshooting that issue.

83

No. 21.2.5 is. As always we may need to test the ISOs before we announce them or change download links at our official download page …

Update went through smoothly, although I ran into a problem with WINE and Proton, couldn’t launch any of them (not even winecfg).

If you have the same problem, disable MANGOHUD for now by running command like so:

MANGOHUD=0 command

Same goes for Steam Proton games. Native ones seem to be largely unaffected.
More info in MangoHud Git issue

85

Do you also have games via wine and have keyboard issues? On my side, I only have overwatch via wine and with wine7.4 it does not register any key input from my keyboard, although my mouse works, but not my keyboard. With wine7.3 it works fine.

Experiencing
Cannot mix incompatible Qt library (5.15.2) with this library (5.15.3) issue with all Qt programs I use (LyX, virtualbox, manjaro-settings-manager and maybe some other, too).

Neither forcing mirror update (as suggested in the second post of this thread) nor (re)installing all qt5 packages (as suggested in the other thread (to which I can’t link)) helps. I have no Qt related AUR packages installed, so I have nothing to rebuild.

I am on Manjaro i3 community edition if that matters.

87

Yes. Some programs (mandelbulb3d, custom translators) don’t work for me with wine 7.4 (they won’t even start) but they work with wine-staging 7.3

88

i dont think a change is required, because for me not changing this resulted in no problems
