[Stable Update] 2022-12-20 - Kernels, XFCE 4.18, KDE Frameworks, Kde Gear, Mesa, Plasma-Mobile, Thunderbird, Firefox

Hello,

I’ve read the git lab posts you linked and I do have in pamac the option to upgrade the pacman-mirrors the msys2 version from AUR, which is a conflict with the original mirrors.

Do I replace pacman-mirrors with manjaro-mirrors or wait until the issue is resolved and the package is deleted ?? msys2 wrote he added prefix to the package name msys2-pacman-mirrors.

Thanks…

EDIT The package is renamed AUR (en) - msys2-pacman-mirrors, but the old one is still not deleted

Yes, I’m using the integrated graphics. I don’t own a dedicated gfx card. I have to say, though, that I am using a fairly standard KDE setup without any effects, custom themes or the like. I only use a few apps (browser, office, printing, scanning, sw development, music, videos, but no gaming) and like to keep my system setup clean and simple. I uninstall stuff I don’t use. For example, all the apps I use are 64bit, so I removed all 32bit libs. I switched to Wayland half a year ago and more recently moved from PulseAudio to PipeWire. Soon, I’ll try to uninstall X11, because all my apps run native on Wayland.
I only use one monitor, albeit a big 40" one, connected via DP with 3840x2160@60hz. So I’me not affected by the KDE multi-monitor issues that have been reported very recently as mostly fixed in Plasma 5.27 here and in Nate’s blog.

So far, knock on wood, I’ve never had any KDE related stability issues. Sure, every once in a while I encounter a bug or even a crash in an application, but I guess this happens with most/all OSs and applications.
I am also not plagued by any issues some manjaro users are complaining about, which are causing them to hold back on KDE updates. This might be either due to my simple HW setup or the lack of custom configurations, which are a big source of errors and problems.

Resolved the issue by deleting the config file. Now it starts and works.

EDIT: Fixed it by me self.

“Tweaks” → “Legacy Applications” was empty after the update.
Choosed adw-dark and it’s back to normal.

I use dark mode all the time.
After the update i got a strange mix of both.

How to fix this?
Thx!

Do you even see the process if you check in the System Monitor or when issuing the command:

ps -A | grep smb4k

Thanks for your comments. Whether or not I may have some configuration more complex than yours, this looks as a severe kernel regression since the system is OK with 6.0 and KO with 6.1…

I resolved the problem by deleting the config file. It now works.

What is going on here?

First off, (22/12/22) told to remove pacman-mirrors and install manjaro-mirrors, okay done,
Then today an update for manjaro-mirrors, okay done.
And just now told to remove manjaro-mirrors and install pacman-mirrors???, done it anyway.

Please someone on the Manjaro team tell us what’s going on here!

Okay, it looks like my computer isn’t supplying the password when it tries to connect. I’m not sure if it’s being saved or not–when I go into network settings, there’s no password, but that may be normal. If I connect and wait long enough, I’ll get a password prompt, supply the wifi password and then connect successfully.

Thanks for solution, lts kernel it works!
EDIT.
LTS kernel solve freeze issue, but it bring back an issue related to sound:
Sound disappear when I pause the stream and I can repair only when I switch of sound profile and on again.

I’m having an issue since the latest update that when I plug in an external monitor, the system almost becomes unresponsive and slow. If I unplug the monitor and just use the laptop screen, everything is fine.
