Ever since the update, my internet connection periodically stops working with the error “Temporary failure in name resolution”. I am connected over wifi and using kernel 5.15.32-1 LTS. Disabling and reenabling wifi temporarily resolves the issue.
As far as I know there’s no pattern to when it starts, websites just start loading very slowly and then stop altogether.
My connections are managed with the NetworkManager Applet.
after an update my wireplumber can’t start with Failed to open module /usr/lib/wireplumber-0.4/libwireplumber-module-device-activation: /usr/lib/wireplumber-0.4/libwireplumber-module-device-activation.so: No such file or directory
The update notes say mesa is updated to 21.3.8. Looking at the pending updates on my system, mesa packages do show new version as 21.3.8, except for the lib32-mesa package which shows it will update to 22.0.0. Usually all the mesa packages have a synchronised version number. OK to go ahead with update, or will this possibly cause trouble with Steam games?
Sadly it appears a simple downgrading of sushi and/or gjs won’t solve our problems. sushi still has the same issue in the 3.38 branch, and downgrading gjs might be a bit messy due to other things that depend on it. gjs 1.72.0 is currently in the unstable branch as well as sushi 41.2 which has the issue fixed.
That error spam is a bit excessive. Disabling the Desktop Icons extension might be the way to go for the time being to avoid that mess.
I’m all ears for other solutions. Funny how you don’t realize how important the simple things are in your daily flow until they muck up.
I've decided to go ahead and upgrade sushi to 41.2 and so far so good.
I seem to have a similar issue. In my case the system logs get filled with messages about CTRL-EVENT-BEACON-LOSS when the connection starts to break down, like this:
No network traffic while these messages are appearing. Sometimes it would recover from it on its own, I have no idea how or why, but other times it would be stuck repeating this non-stop until I reconnected it using the applet.
This happened on kernel 5.16.18-1, now I randomly booted an older kernel that happened to be 5.10.109-1 and it does not seem to have the issue.
TV (tested DBV-C + Kaffeine) with Si2168 (like in USB stick Hauppauge WinTV SoloHD) doesn’t work with kernel V5.17.3.
Kernel V5.16 no problem si2157 7-0060: Can’t continue without a firmware.
Looks like an known regression: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=275502
Thank you for the update. The update ran all fine only after my first reboot, the primary and secondary monitor had the wrong resolution. Did a second reboot and the monitors are fine.
The only real issue is that there is no Wifi available anymore because it says that it is hard blocked.
0: hci0: Bluetooth
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: no
1: phy0: Wireless LAN
Soft blocked: no
Hard blocked: yes
What I tried is to do an rfkill unblock all but this has no effect. Then I rebooted to check my BIOS but WiFi is enabled there. This is a Dell XPS 9700 and it has no physical kill switch.
So I went back to the 5.16 kernel and Wifi works just fine there, so I believe it is something in the 5.17 kernel.
Running this 5.17 kernel:
Linux 5.17.1-3-MANJARO x86_64
From the kernel log when I filter on ath11 all I get is this:
You might be better off sticking with 5.15 LTS kernel, as I am finding the least amount of headache with it, plus there isn’t as much of an urgency to jump kernel versions before they become EOL if you switch with the LTS iterations.
Apologies, I forgot to mention. I did look into that as well but I could not find an Fn switch either. The Fn + F1 is sund off and Fn + F2 is turn volume up.
I have been running the 5.16 kernel since it came out without a problem. When a new kernel comes out I like to try it out and if it works, it works but in this case not so much
Same here. This is due to the binary mismatch with package adios2. It seems the upstream package has already fixed the problem. Hopefully Manjaro will update this soon.
Understood, but you also have to ask yourself why you even need the next kernel release? (Especially non-LTS ones that have short lifespans.)
Sometimes regressions are not in plain sight, in which you might think everything is fine with the kernel and your hardware, but other sporadic or unexplained issues arise in which you blame this-or-that package or application.
I wasn’t sure in this update when noticed the replacement from ‘nodejs’ to ‘nodejs-lts-gallium’. I’m not good Linux user and this change put me on the possible alert, but anyway everything works smooth and fine.
Well for this update, 5.16.18 appears to have fix for this p3 message: kernel: Spectre V2 : WARNING: Unprivileged eBPF is enabled with eIBRS on, data leaks possible via Spectre v2 BHB attacks!
I downgraded linux515 from 5.15.32-1 to 5.15.28-1. Now I haven`t problem.
wine changed russian language to English. My *.exe programs wasnt run with correct fonts. I downgraded version of wine. (running command with env LC_ALL=ru_UA.UTF-8 didnt solve the problem)
