[Stable Update] 2024-01-13 - Kernels, Systemd, Qt5, Mesa, Dbus, Firefox, Thunderbird

I haven’t updated one device yet but I am very unsure what to make of that last post, as in: Is my manual intervention required for the Nvidia driver or mkinitcpio?

As I understand, the issue only concerns kernel 6.7 ?

Correct.

Thebissue concerns ALL kernels as mkinitcpio checks and modifies all kernels. And if a user decided to have modules uncompressed it failed a s not the initramfs was uncompressed as it should but changes were made tonthe host or rootfs in that case. That isnthe beauty of symlinks.

So if mkinitcpio 37.2-1 got installed and you fall into the criteria you should check your system and fix as needed.

Latest packages should have fixed that problem. There is also a dedicated thread for it.

So I got lucky, upgrading (from 2023-01-02 update) directly to mkinitcpio 37.2-1.6

After the update and the switch to dbus-broker I was not able to get to a KDE desktop session. I still saw the sddm login screen, but after entering my password the screen went black (sometime - I had multiple attempts and reboots) I saw the mouse cursor on the black screen. I even could not switch to another tty, everything was just black and nothing happened.
With CTRL+C I was able to get back to the sddm login screen, but that was it.

With the help of a live USB stick, I was able to see the following error messages in the journal:

At first I thought the message dbus-broker-launch[1996]: ERROR launcher_run_child @ ../dbus-broker-35/src/launch/launcher.c +326: Permission denied was caused by apparmor, but disabling apparmor did not make a difference.

In the end I was only able to solve this situation for me by re-installing dbus-daemon again.

The new FireFox update (121.0.1-1 → 122.0-1) just switched my language setting inside of FireFox to English. While this is no big deal I wonder why? I have a relatively new install of Manjaro KDE (2 Weeks old or so) and I am on the Stable Branch using the default FF package. FireFox should not switch the language after an update, how can I help you fix this problem?

Note: I have “Deutsch” configured as my only language in KDE settings and as my first language in the Manjaro-Settingsmanager, but I guess I have the English language packs installed as well(probably by default).
I don’t think this is an upsteam bug, but I cant say for sure.

Do you have firefox-i18n-de installed?

Yes and firefox-i18-en-us and I also had both installed before the update.

This update broke Steam. Launchers of multiple kinds just hang indefinitely, locking up the entire KDE Desktop.

I just did a quick test of Steam and I can launch and play all the 3 games I have installed at the moment on my Cinnamon Desktop, so it seems there’s a problem on your side.
You might want to open a new thread in the support forum, with at least your system specs (“inxi -F” in a terminal) and a copy from the output of Steam (launched from a terminal too).

Mhwd and mhwd-db got 2 updates, one was 2 days ago or so one I got today.
Just wanted to mention that both pamac cli and pacman tell you about a conflict

warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: mhwd-db will be installed before its mhwd dependency
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: mhwd-db will be installed before its mhwd dependency
warning: dependency cycle detected:
warning: mhwd-db will be installed before its mhwd dependency

before installation.

(And why do I get it thrice now?)

Anyway just wanted to tell you that I “solved” it by first updading mhwd

sudo pacman -S mhwd

before running
sudo pacman -Syu
again

Unsure if this is good practice but would not know why that’d cause any issue…

Think I also ran sudo pacman -S mhwd again after it was over to reinstall.

Nope. Steam works fine for me on KDE and if it was broken there would be a lot more posts about it. It’s something specific to your system.

Read again. That’s not a conflict. And it goes through without doing anything.

Maybe this will help look here.
TLDR: Downgrade pixman 0.43.0-1 back to 0.42.2-1, did the trick for me.

Thanks mate, that solved it.

I’ve been spending more time on my SteamDeck lately that I found my main rig 2-3 months behind on updates; and figured today was the day.

Imagine my surprise (post update/reboot) when GRUB only gave me the option to log in as root as I was in “maintenance mode”… rebooted, paid more attention to the scrolling boot text, and found that nvme01 was not a happy camper. I thought it was odd that the system didn’t boot as nvme01 is not my boot/os drive until I remembered drives listed in /etc/fstab need to be there.

Thankfully I remembered the following commands:

  1. lsblk -f to get a list of the UUID’s for the drives the system was using, so that I could
  2. nano /etc/fstab and rem out (#) the drive that failed (not in the lsblk list)

Rebooted and all is well (minus a failed drive) as I’m back in the OS once more… but definitely a scary moment. I’m going to have to dig into learning the changes required for “mount on demand” on my non-system drives.
