Thanks. Will test tomorrow.
EDIT: Can confirm this fixed it. Adding to the wiki here.

Can confirm. TV via HDMI: Meta+P does nothing.
I disabled internal laptop screen in system settings to show picture only on TV.
This led to an additional problem: System hang on “shutdown now” (2 times in a row now; swiched back to internal screen… shutdown works)
I downloaded the source files from “GitHub - MacTavishAO/nautilus-admin-gtk4: Extension for Nautilus to do administrative operations” (which is out dated and no updates, so i guess it’s dead) and altered the code to only use gedit, so yeah kind of fixed for me now, as the source was an older version i changed to just editing the nautilus-admin.py 
You can just edit “/usr/share/nautilus-python/extensions/nautilus-admin.py”
Add:
GEDIT_PATH="/usr/bin/gedit"
Under “NAUTILUS_PATH=”/usr/bin/nautilus""
Change:
at the very bottom change the line from “subprocess.Popen([text_editor, admin_uri])” to
“subprocess.Popen([GEDIT_PATH, admin_uri])” with out quotes.
and that fixes the issue for me.
What do you mean? The latest commit was a couple months ago and the repo package is up to date.
Why? It already uses the default text editor, there should be no need.
Again, I cannot reproduce your issue. I have Gedit set as my default text editor and it works fine.
I’m not sure why it stopped working for me and opening all text files, (.conf, .cfg, blank file type, etc) with Gnome’s Video player, all file types work and open fine with normal double click, open, etc, but not for “edit with admin” and i know it was working before the update (2024-05-13), so that’s why i opted for this quick fix that works for me.
I installed the 5-13 update just before going on a 7-day holiday… just got back today and found these updates to install.

Post install/reboot, I have the following issues:
- my external DP monitor is no longer sensed/used on my laptop. I believe I’m keeping 3 versions of packages… should I try “downgrading”
amd-ucodeorlinux-firmware? if so, what would be the proper way to do that?
EDIT: Perhaps this journal entry is related and sheds some light?
kwin_x11[1155]: kwin_core: parsing edid failed - Conly is not refreshing properly… each update is written over top the old data creating a mess of overlapping font text

EDIT: Solved my Conky issue!
My conky solution
Remembered I had previously wanted to change my conky so it was not transparent.
Initial transparent settings were…
own_window_transparent = false, -- set transparency:
own_window_argb_visual = true,
own_window_argb_value = 175,
My revised settings to try kill the transparency that worked in 5-13 and earlier were…
own_window_transparent = true, -- set transparency:
--own_window_argb_visual = true,
--own_window_argb_value = 175,
But after this 5-18 update, flipping that (likely erroneous) true to false corrected my overlapping font issue…
own_window_transparent = false, -- set transparency:
--own_window_argb_visual = true,
--own_window_argb_value = 175,

EDIT: Some positive news regarding this update, it does appear to resolve a couple of my issues with the 5-13 release…
fixes from 5-13 release
- Desktop icons failed to retain their place on reboot. This is an issue under both Wayland and X11
- “KCM => Wifi & Networking => Firewall” (
plasma-firewall) is not prompting for credentials, nor displaying properuwfstatus/policies in effect like the previous version, and suggests the firewall is disabled. If I try check the box to enable the firewall, it prompts for credentials, passes, and tosses and errorError enabling firewall: An error occurred in command 'setStatus':
I had the same issue, but for me it is easily resolved by manually enabling my external monitor in the system setting: system settings > display & monitor > display configuration. In the last window that appears, select your external monitor from “Device” drop-down list, and then check Enabled. This should be a temporary (although valid) solution though because the external monitor configuration should be accessible through Meta+P keyboard shortcut, which used to work, but no longer does after the latest update. So yeah, this has to be a bug.
Gedit is not in the Czech language, why? Gnome.
I’d say it has something to do with your localization settings. See
And
Is no one else having problems with akonadi server?
Can some one check if akonadictl start or akonadiserver works?
Because I suspect persmission issues but don’t know how to check.
The monitor is not listed at all, so cannot be enabled"… I wish it were that simple.
I’m recalling the DP monitor display was glitchy/corrupted when I first booted it up (was off for vacation), but after I switched it to HDMI (my Steamdeck, which found and used it as expected without glitchy video) and then back to DP the display was no longer corrupted for the laptop… installed the updates, rebooted, and the display was absent… it may be possible the DP port on the monitor is borked and this was bad/coincidental timing.
I’ve discovered a new issue with SDDM. If I Super-L to lock the screen I’m left at a black/blank screen, SDDM is not presented to log back in.
The first time I encountered this, I did a REISUB… the second time I switched to TTY3 to see if I could find anything interesting in the journal (pretty quiet), and when I switched back to TTY2 SDDM was presenting.
Super-L again and SDDM was again not presented (blank screen). Switched to TTY1 then back to TTY2 and SDDM was showing.
So it seems to be that when I lock the screen, I have to switch away from TTY2, and SDDM will show when I return to TTY2.
EDIT: seems I’m not alone with the blank SDDM on lock… Plasma 6: Lock screen renders black (troubleshooting help) - Help - KDE Discuss
It works, but you need to clean the cache. It was looking ugly for me, but when I cleaned it, it stared looking like before again. Somehow, main settings were kept, so I probably didn’t mess with config, but I did clean Plasma 5 configs too.
Well, it appears the old Samsung C32HG70 DP port/“brains” died; completely unrelated to the 5-18 update. The monitor’s HDMI continues to work fine on my Steamdeck and is now working well on the Laptop.
I’ll replace the monitor when the HDMI or monitor itself dies… this monitor’s twin blew it’s PSU a couple years ago, so I’m guessing this ones days are numbered now that issues are creeping in.
Ok I figured it out… The Kjots is not jet updated to latest 6.0.0 that is compatible with KDE6 therefore it cannot work.
update to plasma 6.0.5 went well for me
Edit: posted right before Philm made testing announcement…
Testing branch? [Testing Update] 2024-05-23 - ICU 75.1, InputPlumber, Plasma 6.0.5, LibreOffice, NextCloud
Hello,
In my computer, is the first system release upgrade on my Manjaro fresh installed in November 2023.
The only problem what I don’t encountered a solution is: After the update, in every shutdown attempt, my system is always delaying the shutdown, appearing the message for 40 to 60 seconds: “A stop job is running for User Manager” in the shutdown logs. There are some solutions for this problem?
Thanks
