[Stable Update] 2022-07-04 - Kernels, Firefox, Thunderbird, Nvidia 515.57, Python, Haskell

VPN via L2TP doesn’t work. It’s a new connection I need after my employer has apparently dropped SSTP. Downgrading to 1.34.0 as suggested above didn’t help.

Hello together,

I have this problem after the update on all of my computers:
My NAS - folder will not mounted with kernel 5.18.x and also with 5.19rx.

Only with the kernel 5.15.x the nas-folders will be mounted. So I have to switch back to them.

Before this update, all mounts works fine with all kernels for very long time ever.
I never changed my fstab - nas lines.

Here is my fstab:

# <file system>             <mount point>  <type>  <options>  <dump>  <pass>

All my computers run with the same fstab, kernels and kde in stable branch.
Here is one of them:

It would be nice, if everyone have a solution for this problem.

Oh my god I feel so stupid
All I had to do is fn+f7 and switch monitor :skull: :ok_hand:

Just like some other users, I had a problem updating via GUI - no updates were displayed. Changed mirrors, refreshed them, switched to other mirrors again, waited days - no updates displayed. Had to perform update via CLI.

Switch to unstable, what a “nice” idea!
KDE Plasma 5.25 (stable) is out since 5 weeks, gets two bugfix releases and works fine (for me) in Fedora 36. The third bugfix release of 5.25 comes out at 12. July.

Please test and implement this - Manjaro is a rolling release, or not? …and KDE one of the standard GUIs!

I might be wrong, but it seems I fixed the issue by installing mariadb-libs. In pamac, strongswan 5.9.5-1 doesn’t list the library among its dependencies, although it lists mariadb.

Hello
i’m on stable.
regarding the “DSL/PPPoE may require downgrading 2 packages” ;
it’s marked as “FIXED?”

it is fixed;

Thanks

hmmm, anyone else experiencing a monitor not “waking up” properly (I sleep/blank my monitors and lock after 5 min) with requesting unexisting screen 1 as a plasmashell journal entry?

My workaround is to reconnect the monitor’s DP cable to force a refresh when this happens. Sleep/blank and wake-up work fine over the next 24-48hrs until the cycle repeats.

I’ve been rotating through some replacement monitors over the last couple months… perhaps there is some cached monitor history that could benefit from being flushed? Hmmm, I’m going to try the suggestion found @ Black Screen after plugging in new monitor • KDE Community Forums $ mv ~/.local/share/kscreen ~/.local/share/kscreen.corrupt

you can use sudo env DOWNGRADE_FROM_ALA=1 downgrade <package> to update anything you want that’s packaged by arch

Had to downgrade libvirt to 1:8.3.0-1 (from 1:8.4.0-1), otherwise error “chardev ‘spicevmc’ not supported without spice graphics” prevents VM from starting.

With what VM program?

Qemu. Using VMM to manage all my VM’s.
My issue was also mentioned here: [SOLVED] libvirsh 8.4.0 can't start vm as spicevmc needs spice graphic / Applications & Desktop Environments / Arch Linux Forums

glibc vs 2.35-6 causes Ardour to hang on closure, downgrade to glibc-2.35-4 is a fix, solution is in glibc 2.36. See Ardour 6.9 crashing on exit - #8 by al_F

(sorry, zbe)

I think you linked wrong post. I’d never suggest downgrading glibc. :slight_smile:

In last few updates (I cannot pinpoint the exact update, sorry), the open/save file dialog is in a semi-broken state where I cannot expand just one field (e.g. name of a file, or size, or type, or date modified), and the only way to see full filename is to resize the whole window of the dialog.

Is this a known bug and/or is there to fix this?

How do I fix it ?

See:

I also have auto mounted NAS folders and they mount just fine with 5.18. But I have way less mount options in my fstab:

//(NAS-IP)/home  /mnt/NAS_home  cifs    defaults,uid=1000,credentials=/home/(USERNAME)/nascred  0 0

Maybe try remove some of your mount options if you don’t really need them?

Is there any error message available?

What happens, if you tries to mount the volume manually, e.g. with

sudo mount -t cifs -o credentials=/home/carsten/.smbcredentials,iocharset=utf8,nounix,file_mode=0777,dir_mode=0777,nocase,noserverino,mfsymlinks //NAS-2/home /home/caho/NAS-2
