[Stable Update] 2022-05-13 - Kernels, Mesa, Nvidia, Gnome 42, PipeWire, LIbreOffice, KDE Gear & Frameworks, Virtualbox, Qemu 7.0

Hi,

since the latest update my system is having issues with shutting down and restarting.
When issuing a shutdown or reboot command it takes ages to complete.
When I look at what it is that causes it to hang it’s usually inconsistent, by which I mean it changes between reboots/shutdown.

I’ve seen this mentioned in this thread already, the person who experienced the same issue fixed it by removing orphaned packages, I’ve tried this but it didn’t solve it for me.

I’m using Manjaro Gnome, for now, as I don’t like the direction Gnome is heading in with this new release.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Kind regards

After upgrading today I can’t start mediathekview anymore. I get the following message:

Can someone please help with this issue?

@raguse Thank you, it has been quite annoying!! I’ve changed it and will see how it goes

bespamiatny · 17 May 2022 09:54

is anyone having same issue? I use GNOME with wayland, after the update I can’t type anything in certain text fields, e.g. authentication window and manjaro launch and switch applications text fields, but the most annoying is lock screen, I can’t type in password there (login screen is fine, so at least I can login )

Manfrago · 17 May 2022 10:17

I have a similar error message with XFCE and can confirm it.
Edit: Same with Cinnamon and Mediathekview

Try installing or re-installing

jre-openjdk

When you enter

java -version

in terminal it should show

openjdk version "18.0.1.1" 2022-04-22
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (build 18.0.1.1+2)

Mediathekview runs fine for me in KDE Plasma

Manfrago · 17 May 2022 11:53

The solution for me was to set the default system java version to version 18:

sudo archlinux-java set java-18-openjdk

schmecks · 17 May 2022 12:19

This works for me, thanks (previous default was java-8-openjdk)!

Hi,
I’m having same trouble after this upgrade on two different laptops both running Manjaro KDE with intel video driver. Tried different kernels, no change with either 5.15, or 5.16 or 5.17.

Plasma starts with several minutes at 100% CPU load (plasmashell process) and panel, taskbar (actually the whole plasma) hangs/freezes periodically. And after a while I have a huge more Gbyte file created until it fills up totally my home folder. The file is:
~/.local/share/kactivitymanagerd/resources/database-wal

Tried to look for solution but nothing has come up so far.
Is it safe to delete this file? How can I limit the size of this file? How can I reload the kactivitymanagerd?
Restarting plasma ( killall plasmashell && kstart5 plasmashell ) doesn’t help.
Logging out and in deleted the file but as disk was full, some settings are gone as well.
Any other solution suggestions?

Please let me know if you need any more info.

brahma · 17 May 2022 16:50

you could try deleting your caches:
rm -rf ~/.cache/*
sudo pacman -Sc
reboot and see

thingsiplay · 17 May 2022 16:57

I always feel uncomfortable to see rm -rf command, especially in combination with wildcards. For testing to see if it works, I recommend to just rename the folder instead. Also maybe deleting (or renaming) the relevant cache folder for KDE Plasma stuff would be enough.

evince refresh function is broken since this update.

Yes. On KDE I received 447 updates and a total of 3.3GB

I updated yesterday. As a user of “Back in Time”, I have similar issues with rsync. I’m not using Timeshift.

In Incompatibility with rsync 3.2.4 · Issue #1247 · bit-team/backintime · GitHub they mention the use of --old-args as possible workaround. With this option I was able to do the backup, but I’m unsure if it’s okay.

I’m wondering about rsync package problems, but in the changelog of this update this package is not mentioned. I’m mirroring my local pacman cache as well, and since January I never received any new version of it.

Therefore, what else could be the cause?

Update: There was an update (upgraded rsync (3.2.3-4 → 3.2.4-1)) yesterday. But why is this not mentioned in the changelog in #1 post?

flux · 18 May 2022 10:42

Back In Time is incompatible with rsync 3.2.4. Workaround is to add --old-args in Expert Options/Paste additional options to rsync.

I have the same problem and after resetting with dconf I get the following error when going to Settings → Keyboard → under “Keyboard Shortcuts” → “View and Customize Shortcuts” and the window is blocked

RagingBrachydios · 18 May 2022 14:44

In my case, it was because I had a different gnome-control-center installed.

Do

$ pacman -Qs gnome-control-center

then see the output, if your gnome-control-center is

local/gnome-control-center 42.1-3.1 (gnome)

If it isn’t, then

$ sudo pacman -Sy gnome-control-center

to install it, while answering y to remove the conflicting gnome-control-center.

radumitrescu · 18 May 2022 17:24

This should go under the Policy section and then it does work.
