First machine still not notifying of updates. Checked mirrors, even updated mirror lists. No notice of upgraded packages.

Second machine did get notice of upgrades.

Thank you so much! I wasn’t aware this was a problem until you pointed it out. As an alternative, I downgraded the package by installing it from my pacman cache:
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/suil-0.10.12-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

I have the same problem :frowning: tried to update several Manjaro computers and getting this issue

“An error occurred while trying to share the directory. The share has not been created”
Samba internal report:
net usershare add: cannot convert name “Everyone” to a SID. The transport connection is now disconnected."

Tested to update with a clean install and it’s working, but i don’t want to reinstall all the computers.
Only option is to revert it with Timeshift

pamac quit due to corrupt sway database (Jonas Strassel signature). Updating with pacman -Syyu worked instead.

Until now I had no problem, everythig works fine.

10 posts were split to a new topic: Stable channel update frequency

Hi all,
I had an issue with my lightdm upgrade:

  • I am on Manjaro stable : XFCE flavor. which comes with lightdm, by default.
  • I configured it to work with my fingerprint (it worked before the upgrade, it now works again after the upgrade + workaround)
  • I launch the pamac upgrade, and let the computer do its thing for a while.
  • I come back and try to log back into my session: but I faced a “Failed authenticate” error. (or something).
  • I couldn’t get my fingerprint recognised. I couldn’t enter my password: which happens when fingerprint doesn’t work, usually.

my dirty workaround:

  1. Open a new TTY (Ctrl + Alt + F2) and log into your session with the password. (because it works !)
  2. run: systemctl restart lightdm

This will reset your session:

  • All your unsaved work will be lost.
  • Unable to see the output of the previous pamac upgrade (warning or errors)
  • but the fingerprint is now working back again :tada:

Happy to take any advice on this: what should I have done? ways to save the work ? ways to authenticate ? Ability to get the pamac upgrade outputs ?

Thanks all.

Thank you! That led me to the problem. The issue was not “using a share path outside a home directory”
because i’ve tried to make a share inside my home directory and got the same issue. So I uninstalled apparmor and snapd and all its dependencies. Don’t need Snap packages anyway. Now it’s working to make a network share thru Dolphin again.

Replying to myself (bad form).

Was not getting update notices.

I had to pamac update --force-refresh to get the database to sync. The lck file didnt exist, so there was another issue. Now I will wait and see if I get update notifications.

I got a similar probleme once ago…
Probleme was, even after updating the mirrorlist in pamac, i got no update notification.
Reason was, that the first server in the mirrorlist was outdated.
After i edited the etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist and removed the server from the list, the updates were shown.

A post was split to a new topic: Corrupted packages/invalid keyrings during update

Oh no… You don’t need to remove AppArmor… Just disable it and reboot your PC

sudo systemctl disable apparmor
reboot

Bring it back Bring it back :rofl:
//Timeshift it back. I hope you snapshot that before you remove AppArmor :sweat_smile:

Follow up my thread … I’m still searching for proper way to config AppArmor to make Samba work again

After the update the Ctrl key no longer works in my virtualbox virtual machines, it just treats Ctrl-C as the letter C etc, where it didn’t before the update.

Virtualbox guest additions are up to date, and the same behaviour is seen on both a Windows and Linux guest. When disabling its “mouse integration” option the ctrl key works as expected, but is a workaround that introduces its own usability issues. There’s an older issue relating to this in virtualbox relating to using ctrl on the host to locate the mouse pointer, however I don’t have this setting on.

This issue doesn’t occur in vmware virtual machines. I’m running the 5.15 kernel and Cinnamon.

I was just about to report the Ctrl key issue too. It’s not just Virtualbox. Any combo with left Ctrl is broken for me on multiple Cinnamon systems. I did some digging and previously they said this was a bug in XOrg that had to get patched. But that was in 2018.

So yeah, on my systems ( multiple ones so multiple keyboards ) if I try to do Ctrl+Shift for example, it does not work. But some things do. Ctrl+Alt left / right works. The majority of my issues are Ctrl+Shift but other things have not worked at times.

In the virtual keyboard I can bring up, when I press left Ctrl it never lights up to recognize it as being hit. Other keys do. But obviously that’s not completely right if Ctrl+Alt+left/right works.

I can use the right Ctrl and that works, but there’s no way I’m going to get used to that after a couple of decades of left Ctrl + something. :open_mouth:

In any case, something got borked with using the left Ctrl key in the update

Hello, I have a problem that I can’t access the internet but i can connect to wifi right after the update. How to solve this sir?. Now i’m running on 5.15.59-1. Thanks in advance.

Oh my… You’ve right! Never thought about it. Reverted with Timeshift and made the update.
Disabled the Apparmor and now Samba share is working again :slight_smile:
I hope there is a proper solution for it :confused:

Still errors in Journal when using Firefox:

I did open an issue on the Cinnamon Github page to let them know
