Also had suddenly major problems with videos (stuttering, got then worse, audio was playing and video was displaying still image). With kernel 6.6 it was ok at first, then it started there also…
Found out its about audio, Videos with no sound were ok.
Something with pipewire went wrong.
Replaced pipewire with pulseaudio and now i can watch videos again.

Kernel 6.8 appears to have resolved this issue for me. No sound loss in a boot since upgrading.

Hi and sorry about not replying earlier, after reading up on Btrfs in the links you provided and checking btrfs filesystem usage <my-btrfs-volume>, I confirmed my issue is about of running out of space for metadata and I need to balance manually (I previously thought this process is automatic). I’m in the process of obtaining some extra storage to temporarily extend the btrfs volume and carry out the balancing process. I also remember running into this issue previously when filling my disk up and attempting to install/update some package.
This is not related to the update per-say so I won’t continue this thread here; Thanks for the extensive help so far, everyone!

I noticed displays arrangement settings applet is broken.

  • each time when I boot up in virtualbox (VBoxSVGA driver), screens of two displays are overlapping (one covers other partially on the desktop) (I have 3 screens and use 2 for virtual box and those are intersected).
  • each time I need to go to display settings, and the arrangement of the displays shown there reflects the overlap on the desktop
  • each time when I adjust their positions and click apply, confirmation dialog (counting down from 15 s) shows up, I click Keep, displays are corrected, but the settings applet shows up like changes are not saved (apply button still clickable, asterisk in the title bar). Clicking it for 10 times doesn’t change anything, but leaving display category/page asks me if I want to save the unsaved setting…

Here are my logs from the time it happened:

Don’t want to be rude, but the stable branch is starting to look a bit like a point release. It has been almost 2 months. Maybe it is time to release the stuff down? It will still be a disaster in the forum, it is inevitable to have at least 30 topics for the init change and 45 for plasma, but postponing it only postpones the pain :slight_smile:

No, postponing major update makes sure there is no, or less issues. If people need the next release of their packages, it is as simple as a couple commands and a reboot.

I tend to agree. More bugs fixed by the time it hits Stable … and more time for the various theme writers to adapt.

Don’t expect that to happen in concert; apart from the globals.

The issues will be with plasma, and they will be fixed from plasma team. At the end of the day, probably a lot of customisations of plasma 5 will have to go and no amount of testing will fix it. And there are no issues with xfce and gnome…so why do we have to wait. And honestly, based on past experience what has already landed in stable (stuff like completely broken pamac, breaking changes in polkit or the theming unannounced), the testing that goes is well, limited. There is no way somebody is testing for 2 months continuously.

Yes, you are right, based on past experience it is always the same when a major DE update holds Stable back, there are always users complaining “I want update!!!” when it is only a couple commands if they need it. But they won’t do it, they complain that Stable is not on par with latest update on Testing.

I don’t care about my DE but of the list of below packages…

Is it possible to update just Gnome & Xfce while leaving …
And then oh well, just 2 more Kde issues to go…
Seems like X11 is on its way to default.

See what I’m talking about…

User: I want update now!!!
Regular: just do these two commands and reboot.
