[Stable Update] 2024-03-06 - Kernels, Systemd, KDE Gear, Qt, GNOME, Firefox, Thunderbird

Replace glfw-wayland with extra/glfw?

Say yes.

I’m on Sway, so I can’t guarantee results with other WMs.

I don’t have qt6 installed, should I install it?

It will get installed as a dependency if something you use needs it.

You need to install a supported kernel. See:

The new Remmina 1.4.35 fixed the authentication bug from previous 1.4.34.
At least for my use cases.

As statet in the post:

IMPORTANT → Linux 6.5 is EOL

Linux 6.5 is EOL and will be removed from the repo.

If you use Linux 6.5 and Nvidia or as virtual machine, it is of great importance, that you install Linux 6.6 to avoid driver problems.

sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux66

I can’t seem to do this.

  sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux66

Moderator edit: In the future, please use proper formatting: [HowTo] Post command output and file content as formatted text

Remove anything linux65 related first.

thank you for the response.

I removed the ‘nvidia-utils’ and its dependencies, upgrading kernel now.

Do what? I can see two things you should have done. One I’ve done for you…

A post was split to a new topic: Unison-gui crashes

Somehow, transparency for inactive windows on my Xfce desktop was activated with this update. Annoying because I usually have one reading-from window and one writing-to window open side-by-side. It should have been easy to fix, but I couldn’t remember where, among all the similarly named settings apps, compositing effects can be controlled.

The most promising Settings menu choices are titled: Appearance, Desktop, Display, Settings Manager, Window Manager, Window Manager Tweaks, and Workspaces. And then there are the less promising app titles, such as Manjaro Settings Manager, Kvantum, and Qt5 Settings.

All is fine now, but there should be a punishment for people-who-name-things-inadequately. I found the transparency effects are controlled under the Compositor tab of the Window Manager Tweaks app. Grr!

After working for a while, my touchpad’s click does not work anymore. I’ve also tested with a mouse and faced the same issue. Disabling all the gnome shell extensions does not prevent this issue!

Thanks for the updates, previously Vivaldi won’t start now it’s fixed. But screen tearing after wakeup still persist.

Hi!

Using aom (libaom-av1) in ffmpeg for generating avif images with film grain keeps failing for some images.
