[Stable Update] 2024-05-29 - Kernels, Plasma 6.0.5, GNOME 46.2, Mesa

[Gkirmathal]

Since the last 2 stable updates with KDE6 update, I have been experiencing inconsistent behavior of Display and Brightness settings for my monitor, where it does not dim nor sleeps after the set timers.
Manually restarting plasma-powerdevil.service temporarily fixes it

This mostly/only happens after resuming from sleep. On a cold or reboot Energy Saving works fine.

Anyone know if this a known issue in KDE6?

Journalctl to me does not show anything out of the ordinary that sticks out regarding powerdevil:

I had installed Openai Whisper manually with Python, but since this update it doesn’t work anymore. In the end I gave up and removed it.

Also another application (Darkradiant → build from source, which uses Python for script functions) suddenly stopped working.

Edit: this might have been because of a previous update instead. Not sure. Sorry.

Both available from the AUR. Both reliant on Python. Did you rebuild/reinstall them after the update?

[datiswous]

I didn’t install them via aur.

Openai whisper I installed via info here:

GitHub - openai/whisper: Robust Speech Recognition via Large-Scale Weak Supervision (I think, it’s a long time ago)

Darkradiant I’ve build from source:

https://wiki.thedarkmod.com/index.php?title=DarkRadiant_-_Compiling_in_Linux

I will probably try rebuilding DarkRadiant at least.

Edit: I got Whisper working again using an AUR package.

There has been a recent Python version bump. That, coupled with other recent changes, will probably mean some things need to be rebuilt no matter where they came from.

I am having issues with the Wynsdey update that I haven’t seen posted elsewhere.

• One of my two GPUs (AMD RV730 GL FirePro V3750) no longer drives video output even though it is detected by the OS.
• If I drop to a tty, then the monitors attached to the non-working GPU start working, and the other monitors attached to the other GPU freeze
• I’m also getting corrupted display issues. Like this is my cursor:
  
  

The update seems to have broken support for one of my GPUs and is causing corrupt graphics on my other GPU. I appreciate any guidance!

Edit: I’ve discovered some relevant log entries in journalctl:

gnome-shell:6746: GLib-CRICITAL **: g_close(fd:0) failed with EBADF. The tracking of file descriptors got messed up
grome-shell:6746: libmutterWARNING **: Failed to open gpu '/dev/dri/card0': No suitable mode setting backend found

/dev/dri/card1 works perfectly fine, that is the GPU that is working. Why is the other one failing? I still don’t know how to go about fixing this.

Hmm… I just got around to applying the stable updates from 2024-05-13 onwards, and having spent a good while following the guide to dealing with the latest system Python updgrade.

I’m not 100% sure, but I think it’s this latest (2024-05-29) update which includes Pipewire that has caused my problem. My laptop speakers work fine, but my wired headphones do not work at all. I’m using wireplumber as a session manager.

I think someone else had a similar problem with the first big update ([Stable Update] 2024-05-13 - Kernels, Plasma 6, Gnome 46, LxQT 2.0, Nvidia, Pacman - #259 by DrRevert) but the fix (involving ~/.config/wireplumber) is not relevant to me.

Since this update, after typing in my LUKS password at the initial prompt but before the diagnostic messages appear, I get this:

Keyfile could not be opened. Reverting to passphrase.

A password is required to access the luks-<id> volume:
Enter passphrase for /dev/nvme0n1p2:

I can then enter my LUKS password again and it continues booting. I suspect there’s something wrong with my mkinitcpio.conf. I’ve merged the .pacnew provided by this update, the resulting file is (sans comments):

MODULES=()
BINARIES=()
FILES=()
HOOKS=(base udev keyboard keymap autodetect modconf kms block consolefont encrypt openswap resume filesystems fsck)

(I tinkered with HOOKS a lot previously following some posts here in an attempt to get USB keyboards to work at the initial LUKS prompt, with no luck, hence the weird order).

[nonreligious]

OK, I think I fixed it: I went to pavucontrol and saw that the Built-in Audio profile was Analog Surround 4.0 Output + Analog Stereo Input (unavailable).

I changed that to Analog Stereo Output, which restored audio in my headphones

I also found Analog Stereo Duplex profile worked as well – indeed these were the only two profiles which weren’t marked (unavailable) in the drop-down menu.

Hope this helps someone else. I think this happened to me once before after an update as well, but I had trouble remembering this fix. I wish I could properly understand how audio on Linux works so that I don’t have to keep blindly playing around with the ornaments in order to fix a problem with a straightforward solution. One day maybe.

Hi I just updated my system from before the 2024-05-13 update where KDE updated to 6. I can’t comment on that thread anymore as it’s closed but it went somewhat okay, still trying to see what changed and what’s not working anymore.

I’m missing the kernel app. Before the update there was an app to check available kernels and install them. Where is that now? Also I think the drivers section is missing, where I could choose which driver I wanted to use (open source, vs proprietary) for my hardware.

Also the KDE plasma report that is pre-installed in the system tray produces the following error and not working:

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.weather/contents/ui/main.qml:452:25: Type FullRepresentation unavailable

file:///usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.weather/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml:38:24: Cannot assign object of type "QQC2.Action" to property of type "Action_QMLTYPE_93*" as the former is neither the same as the latter nor a sub-class of it.

EDIT: I found the kernel app, it’s no longer a standalone app that I can search and find in the launcher. Instead I had to go to the system tray >Manjaro settings manager and right click that to find the kernels. However the hardware/drivers app is still missing

[almond.cake]

Hello everyone, this is my first post here, please don’t through a lot of tomatoes. So, since the previous update I’m getting troubles with frozen screen, when nothing is active and only power button can help. It happens occasionally on different loads, sometimes during just laptop idling. The interesting part is that Caps Lock led starts blinking once the system got frozen. Please let me know what information is required to troubleshoot this issue.

Hi @almond.cake, and welcome!

Please start a new thread and provide the necessary information so that we, or anyone for that matter, to be able to provide assistance, more information is necessary. To that end, please see:

• [HowTo] Provide System Information,
• [HowTo] Post screenshots and links,
• [HowTo] Request support, and
• [HowTo] Post command output and file content as formatted text.

Please also note and heed: Forum Rules - Manjaro

Hope you manage!

---

Tip:

To provide terminal output, copy the text you wish to share, and paste it here, surrounded by three (3) backticks, a.k.a grave accents. Like this:

```
pasted text
```

Or three (3) tilde signs, like this:

~~~
pasted text
~~~

This will just cause it to be rendered like this:

Portaest sed
elementum
cursus nisl nisi
hendrerit ac quis
sit
adipiscing
tortor sit leo commodo.

Instead of like this:

Portaest sed elementum cursus nisl nisi hendrerit ac quis sit adipiscing tortor sit leo commodo.

Alternatively, paste the text you wish to format as terminal output, select all pasted text, and click the </> button on the taskbar. This will indent the whole pasted section with one TAB, causing it to render the same way as described above.

Thereby improving legibility and making it much easier for those trying to be of assistance.

---

Additionally

If your language isn’t English, please prepend any and all terminal commands with LC_ALL=C. For example:

LC_ALL=C bluetoothctl

This will just cause the terminal output to be in English, making it easier to understand and debug.

Please edit your post accordingly.

These may only be coincidental; but, both within the last few days seems like it might be worth attracting some attention:

Error: attempting to read or write outside of disk

Hello Manjaro Members, I’m a new user of Manjaro Plasma Desktop and got stuck on an error. I allocated 307.6 GB disk partition to Manjora OS (I’m using Windows on the other side). After a few days of setup, Instead of allocating 307 GB combined for both root and home partition, I thought of giving 128 GB to root and the remaining part to home partition. I did the partition using konsole, cfdisk /dev/nvme0n1 After writing the partition to the disk, suddenly the screen became black. Then I reboo…

Welcome to the forum!

@almond.cake

The interesting part is that Caps Lock led starts blinking once the system got frozen.

That’s a kernel panic, and if it happens while the system is already up and running — as opposed to at boot — then the cause is usually faulty hardware. Common causes are overheating and/or a faulty memory module.

[almond.cake]

Is there any way to investigate it in details? Most probably something isn’t compatible 6.6 kernel version since I haven’t seen the same issue while on 6.1

[Mirdarthos]

Please start a new thread as previously requested. This has nothing to do with the update. It is merely a coincidence to have presented itself at the same time.

That said,

journalctl --priority=warning..crit --no-pager --boot=-1

Where:

• The --priority=warning..err argument limits the output to warnings and errors only;
• and the --no-pager formats the output nicely for use here, on the forum;
• the --boot=-1 argument limits the output to log messages from the previous boot. This can be adjusted to -2 for the boot before that, -3 to the boot before that, and so on and so forth.

[starmito]

Thanks for your help.I was too busy these days, I tried different methods that I saw in the forum with my same probel but didn’t work for me. I know every system is different. Finally I restored my KDE configuration and finally it works well. Also I create another account before restore the config and in that account it works perfectly.Maybe this helps someone that have the same problem.

[bena]

I killed the LUKS slot I wasn’t using (from a previous failed attempt to use a USB key to unlock), removed its cryptkey from my kernel parameters, and ran grub-mkconfig, and it now asks for my LUKS password not twice but three times on boot! The Keyfile could not be opened message has been replaced by two differently-worded variations on “A password is required to decrypt” following the usual initial prompt.

Edit: I think the second (or third, I guess) prompt is likely GRUB - ArchWiki :

Without further changes you will be prompted twice for a passphrase: the first for GRUB to unlock the /boot mount point in early boot, the second to unlock the root filesystem itself as implemented by the initramfs.

Edit 2: I’m now back to where I was before this update by following dm-crypt/Device encryption - ArchWiki to embed a keyfile in initramfs. I still get the first prompt to decrypt /boot but subsequent decryptions use the keyfile. I think what probably happened to cause the third prompt was that I removed a keyfile from initramfs on my encrypted swap, thinking I was removing the USB keyfile on the disk (I’d totally forgotten about encrypted swap so didn’t check to see if more than one LUKS device was listed). The first prompt was for /boot, the second was for the disk and the third was for swap. Still no idea what caused the second prompt to appear though.

Hi after update discord is out of date, is it better to install discord with flatpak ?

[soundofthunder]

It’s better to wait until it’s updated in the Manjaro repo; have a little patience.
