This fixed the issue for me, too.

May I ask what is a total noob question? Iām use BTRFS and a snapshot is automatically taken prior to any update/upgrade. If I perform this latest system update and things go completely south, is it really as easy to recover as I think?
- Reboot computer
- At Grub menu, reboot from a snapshot
- Once the snapshot boots, run Timeshift and restore the same snapshot.
- Reboot
- From Grub menu, select the normal Manjaro boot option.
- Computer boots successfully in pre-update state and I give a sigh of relief.
Iāve done some searching on this and have not found a ton of clarity on restoring from a BTRFS snapshot, and I just want to be prepared. I acknowledge that I should probably know this already as I deliberately chose BTRFS for its recovery capabilities.
Thank you, and happy updating.
Ah, great! There already was an update to libplasma, looks like it fixed the problem.
Thanks!

Iām getting this error, too. I try installing the 6.6 or 6.8 kernel as suggested and I keep getting this error message so the whole process stops. Do I need to uninstall the nvidia driver first?
hi! I have the same problem. did you manage to solve it?

Im on Manjaro KDE and I canāt even load the tty in the first place. I press control,alt,F3 or any other function Key and all I get is a black background. This is the first time this happens and I donāt even know where to begin.
This is before updating anything. I want to go into the tty to do the update as is recommended for this update.

Hello everyone,
I would like to express my gratitude. Before the update, I tried everything to achieve the same sound quality I had on Windows with my Astro A40. After the update, the quality improved significantly. Thank you very much!

All pretty smooth on my KDE Plasma system. Although I had a number of now unsupported Plasma widgets, they didnāt actually cause problems.
Just a pity I now need to roll my own replacement for the extremely useful popup launcher, which I have half a dozen instances of.

No big issues so far on my installation. I went down the risky route of not resetting Plasma settings, just logged out, logged in through a tty, created a snapshot, removed some eventually-problematic AUR packages like linux-firmware-git, ran pacman -Syu and rebooted. (Also updated the kernel to 6.9.0-1 later on)
Things that I encountered:
- Window Title Widget didnāt work anymore. Replaced it with a Plasma 6 port.
- Font in Konsole got reset to a non-nerd-font (already mentioned here in the thread). Needed to re-set fixed-width-font in System Settings to what I had before (Hack Nerd Font).
- Some python venv of mine wasnāt able to find packages anymore (somebody posted a similar error here in the thread) Not sure how python updates are usually handled but I would expect pip-packages to be re-installed or if possible - copied over from the previous version.
- Found quite some orphaned packages and selectively removed all connected to kde/plasma
Overall, based on what I read here I was already nervous but seems like I got lucky today 
Update: Had to remove all links since itās my first post but it should still be easy to find out what Iām referring to

Ok a crazy thing happened, I was actually able to do the system update (KDE) logged in normally without the tty. I know it was a big risk but it somehow worked outā¦ Miraculously nothing is broken so far as I can see.
However I still canāt access the tty, neither before updating nor after. It just gives a blank screen when I try. Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?

A nooby answer to that too: In the default case, yes. There is however a daily max for the number of Timeshift snapshots, so if you made some snapshots today already, this may get skipped.
There should be some pop up message: āYou are running a snapshoft. Do you want to restore it?ā
If you can still boot normally you can also restore a snapshot from the Timeshift gui. It will inform you that itās going to boot into this snapshot on the next reboot.
Thank you, hope this will work to my liking

I had the same problem. I started to reinstall with one package, suprisingly it solved the problem for most other packagesā¦
sudo pamac reinstall firefox

Iām a little bit confused about the multiple information concerning AUR and Python 3.12. The first post says in āPython 3.12 infoā you should
pacman -Qoq /usr/lib/python3.11/
pamac build $(pacman -Qoq /usr/lib/python3.11)
checkrebuild
In Post #2 āPython interpreter upgradeā links to [HowTo] Python upgrade: reinstall AUR and pip packages where it says:
OLD='11'
pip freeze --user > OLD_PIP_pkgs.txt
pacman -Qmq $(pacman -Qoq /usr/lib/python3.${OLD}/site-packages) > OLD_AUR_pkgs.txt
pacman -Qoq /usr/lib/python3.11/ in Post #1 results in 210 files while pacman -Qmq $(pacman -Qoq /usr/lib/python3.${OLD}/site-packages) returns only on AUR package.
Whatās the right thing to do?
3 systems, respectively running kernel 5.15, 6.1 and 6.6, all on Xfce, all good.
As always, thank you very much Manjaro developers.
Are you on a laptop? CTRL+ALT+F3/4/5/6
Should work on desktops. On laptops maybe try to mess with Fn (function key) a bit?
Ah no iām on a desktop PC, I wish it was a simple Fn key thing but itās notā¦ It switches to the tty but the screen is black, thereās no text or login prompt or anythingā¦ I have no idea when this issue started eitherā¦ 
On CTRL+ALT+F1 I get a blinking cursor onlyā¦
Then someone else maybe can tell if bash is misconfigured for you. Did you do the pacnews for .bashrc?
whereis bash
ask that your Terminal.
