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

After the update, the bluetooth auto-connection in GDM is broken. I can’t use my Bluetooth keyboard/mouse until i logged in GNOME.

I think it’s solely about how you would need it. If you have Bluetooth apparatus you use from startup, you may want to enable it by default. Otherwise, you can leave it disabled by default.

Update went smooth. However, somehow the apps that were updated to libadwaita were using the vimix-gtk theme. After removing this theme, they used the default libadwaita theme. Legacy applications used the graphite-gtk theme. I already had the adw-gtk theme from the AUR from previously checking this out.

Out of curiosity, I installed both adw-gtk-theme and adw-gtk3 from the official packages. Am now finding out that a) other themes no longer work for legacy applications and b) I cannot remove these packages because they’re dependencies required by manjaro-gnome. Even though I didn’t have these after updating and using legacy applications with graphite-gtk theme worked after the update. Any solutions for reverting?
Edit1: I deleted both packages via the terminal with pacman -rdd but now I can no longer set different themes for the legacy applications, whereas this worked after the update?
Edit2: Firefox is using the gtk theme for legacy applications, so somewhere Manjaro is overruling something…
Edit3: I’ve opened a separate topic, where I’ve also posted a ‘solution’ (which isn’t really a solution per se, but it did the trick so to say).

Also, on Reddit someone found out that libadwaita applications can in fact be themed by copying the gtk4 css to /.config/gtk-4.0. I did previously succesfully do this in a VM with Fedora 36, but this can not be done with the new manjaro update since there is no such directory. Any suggestions?

Does the linked documentation not help?

Thanks ! Issue fixed !

Thanks!

The Update crashed my desktop, causing it to stop halfway through, and in the end I had to re-install the kernel + initramfs from arch-chroot… :slightly_frowning_face:

After this update I’ve got 2 issues, but fix them easily.

  1. This was fixed by the 2 firsts answers from this topic. Just remembered I had written hook ‘shotdown’ into /etc/mkinitcpio.conf some… when.
cp: cannot create directory'/run/initramfs/': No such file or directory
  1. Opera crashed everytime on playing any video.
    I don’t like to update this browser and put this into ignore list, but don’t do this to its ‘opera-ffmpeg-codecs’ package before. Just downgrade this package and done. Everithing is fine.

5 posts were split to a new topic: I cannot upgrade libkipi

It looks like some pamac dependency resolving issue. Gwenview and Spectacle required libkipi before this update, but new versions don’t. But for some reason upgrade insists of installing libkipi from AUR. I just installed new versions of gwenview and spectacle manually with --no-upgrade flag and then full upgrade did not prompt me to reinstall libkipi from AUR.

8 posts were split to a new topic: Timeshift issues

That’s the problem, libkipi was required by some apps before update and trying to remove it says smth like removing libkipi breaks dependency libkipi required by gwenview. So I cannot just remove it before upgrade. And why pamac insists on building this package from AUR when it is not required by new app versions - that’s a question.

Thank you, now it work “out of the box” for me! :blush:

Thank you philm and the Manjaro team,
on behalf of all the owners of a XPS 13, because this stable update got our fingerprint to work again.
You are the best! :heart_eyes:

After upgrading, my system has no sound. The sound output becomes Dummy Output.

P.S.

I installed sof-firmware and the sound works again.

Thank you for fixing the problem with xfce4-terminal that had broken in the previous stable update.

After this update, the (GNOME) Activities app launcher does not work for me.
For instance:

  1. Click on Activities menu (or hit the Windows key)
  2. Enter anything in “Type to search” zone (for instance 'Emacs")
  3. Click on the “Emacs” icon that shows up (or any other app): nothing happens.

Anyone having the same issue here?
