Announcements Stable Updates

Okay, I had to get work done and do some live streams. Now I just did the updates! Here are my results:

  1. My computer restarted!! YAY!! (Last time it didn’t so I had to use Timeshift to go back)
  2. Firefox took forever to start so I did the fix listed above. It launches fine now!
  3. Steam didn’t work, so I reinstalled it. It works fine now and Elden Ring starts!! YAY!!
  4. OBS doesn’t work!! Here’s what I get:
$ obs
obs: error while loading shared libraries: libpython3.10.so.1.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!!

UPDATE: I just tried to Build obs-studio-git (that’s what I’ve been using) and I got the following error:

CMake Error at plugins/obs-webrtc/cmake/legacy.cmake:9 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindLibDataChannel.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
  project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "LibDataChannel", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "LibDataChannel"
  with any of the following names:

    LibDataChannelConfig.cmake
    libdatachannel-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "LibDataChannel" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "LibDataChannel_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "LibDataChannel" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
  has been installed.

  plugins/obs-webrtc/CMakeLists.txt:3 (legacy_check)


-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...

UPDATE 2:
I tried this and my existing OBS does launch now and I did a short test stream. I really DON’T KNOW if this is a bad idea but I did…

$ sudo ln -s libpython3.11.so.1.0 libpython3.10.so.1.0

Use the flatpak from obs, it is more stable and has official support.

Last time I checked, the Flatpak version doesn’t support the plugins I use. I have a huge post about this in the OBS forums. Maybe they fixed stuff in the past couple of months? I don’t know. Here’s my post if you want to take a look…

Thanks! I just installed libdatachannel from AUR but I’m not going to try building OBS just yet because I got the current install working with a symbolic link.

Edit: never mind they are: “Library with common API for various GNOME modules”.

Hardware is detected, I guess.
ip addr show lists my Wi-Fi interface. I am not able to connect to my router anymore. Another Kernel also didn’t fix the issue.
Is there any information which would help to pinpoint this issuo?

I use a 20W4CTO1WW ThinkPad T15 Gen 2i with up-to-date firmware.
The router in question is a Fritzbox 7530AX.

306

Does deleting it cause any issues? what does it even do?

307

It was dropped from the Arch repos and nothing requires it.

Steam stopped opening reliably.

Removed flatpak then xdg-desktop-portal (both unused for me) per https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/9321 .

The system freezes irregularly after the latest update. (5-10s) Mouse, keyboard input stop working.

I just noticed that screen brightness controls no longer works, for my thinkpad T420.
I’ll try rebuilding some of those python packages and reboot and see if it solve it.

313

Welp, after a year and a half I finally had an update take me down. When trying to boot, after I enter my disk password I get:
Slot 0 opened
error: symbol ‘grub_debug_malloc’ not found.
Entering rescue mode…

Any ideas? I don’t think this is the same issue as the “no such cryptodisk found” problem from the last update.

314

Pretty serious to affect the clock too, makes me think of either conflicting IRQ ports, or mis-handling of mouse events.

How frequently are the freezes?
As a diagnostic step, can you try the mouse in a different USB port?
And another test, do you get the freezes on a boot from live USB?

315

Im having issues with performance after login. System freezes for around 20-30 seconds. Also i have freezes and lags after suspension. Im using tkg-pds kernel with nvidia-dkms module. I tryed the original kernel but that does not affect degraded performance. Also im on gnome.

316

If you’re using openweather Gnome extension, deactivate it. For me, it was this extension which froze system during 20-30s after login.

317

Updates on my XFCE server and GNOME notebook went fine, only nomacs failed to build via AUR. Looks like an issue with exiv2. Really just the smallest of annoyances, I’ll use something else meanwhile.

318

I am using a Bluetooth mouse—but all the input devices freeze on my laptop
