The installation of the update went very well. I liked the way it was updated inux59-nvidia, linux59-headers and linux - utils.
I am using a MacBook Pro 13" mid 2010
The updated worked for me.
BUT if I switch to nouveau driver, the power management does not work anymore.
Additionally I have since long time the issue that wifi does not work after cold-boot. Only after I send my macbook to sleep and wake it up again, the wifi works. But that does not work with nouveau driver, as it does not wake up from sleep anymore, or better said it does not really go to sleep mode. Display turns off but sleep LED does not light up. Have to hold power button for several seconds to turn off. The legacy NVIDIA driver works fine.

i will add
correct video-nvidia by chroot
( remove nvidia-utils-455xx with option -Rdd , then mhwd -a pci free 0300 , mhwd -a cpi nonfree 0300)
nb : if you have Grub error on boot ( csm + secureboot activated --> no csm , no secureboot )
with lightdm - xfce - lock screen and systemd
i will check if trouble still occurs on screen lock:
- i can log in
- lost of video screen ( goes black )
- i log in TTY
- i apply âsudo systemctl restart lightdmâ to get back xorg & video
and then itâs ok
with boot kernel : systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=1 ( need to apply 4)
next try : without systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy ( need to apply 4 )
next try : downgrade systemd ==> version 247 systemd is not ready
( lib32-systemd , systemd , systemd-libs , systemd-syscompat) ( need to apply 4 )
@philm
what i have see :
pam secret on lock xfce session do not know login ,
with check ( sudo systemctl status )
session 2 with login ( user ok on boot )
lock screen , type password
failed return session 2 ( no more login appears , pam secret with warn )
pam_warn(systemd-user:setcred): function=[pam_sm_setcred] flags=0x8004 service=[systemd-user] terminal=[] user=[lightdm] ruser=[<unknown>] rhost=[<unknow>]
==> NO USER HERE then Ctrl+Alt+F2
tty create session 5 with login ( user ok )
check , there is 2 session2 and 5 , only session5 has login --user
if i do sudo systemctl restart ligthdm.service
session 2 & session 5 are fusioned , video is back ( login user is ok )
==> we lost login --user HERE on lock screen
Had to downgrade linux-firmware due to wifi problems
affected device
Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros AR9462 Wireless Network Adapter (rev 01)
Subsystem: Lite-On Communications Inc Device 6621
Kernel driver in use: ath9k
Kernel modules: ath9k
This switch to the new nvidia packages is kind of a mess. lib32-nvidia-utils correctly conflicts and replaces, while nvidia-utils does not for example (it only conflicts). I also ended up with linux59 without the nvidia kernel module thanks to linux-latest. Fixed all those issues on my end, but unless thatâs addressed, we may end up with a lot of broken systems.
P.s.: Why not make kernel linux59 replace all previous kernels instead of using a proxy meta package? That would also solve various dependency issues. When for example the kernel gui tries to remove linux59.
Not sure why this happened. But I am running the testing branch on my laptop. I am using KDE Plasma. Itâs an Asus Laptop. No dedicated GPU. Itâs only GPU is the internal one by my CPU (Intel).
When checking for updates using yay, yay -Syu, I get âMissing aur packages: mwhd-nvidia-340xx, 418xx, 430xx, 440xx, 450xx, and 455xxâ. I did not have this issue until this latest testing update.
Note: In the âmissing aur packagesâ output I put, I didnât include the âmwhd-nvidiaâ part for the rest of the packages just to save myself from typing it all out.
Another note and possible issue. When I go to âAdd or Remove Softwareâ and I check for updates via that, it getâs to about 90% and seems to finish but crashes. I think it may be crashing when itâs going to display the updates I have.
That means theyâre orphans an you can remove them.
I was able to upgrade my intel/nvidia stack by removing conflicting packages and then reinstall the prime package for linux59. Everything went seamlessly from there on in respect to the gpu drivers and kernel upgrade.
But I have two other problems:
-
Iâm on a thinkpad T480 and with linux59 brightness controls are not working, no problems with linux54, linux58 and linux510. So I switched to linux510 for now and can live with this workaround
-
I had to do a partial upgrade due to problems with the pipewire package and itâs pulse plugins:
:: Synchronizing package databases... core 168,3 KiB 7,15 MiB/s 00:00 [------------------------------------------------------------------------------] 100% extra 1961,6 KiB 31,9 MiB/s 00:00 [------------------------------------------------------------------------------] 100% community 6,3 MiB 31,7 MiB/s 00:00 [------------------------------------------------------------------------------] 100% multilib 182,2 KiB 44,5 MiB/s 00:00 [------------------------------------------------------------------------------] 100% :: Starting full system upgrade... resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages... :: pipewire-pulse and pulseaudio are in conflict.

Iâm not sure if this is an individual problem.
UPDATE:
For now, I ended up with removing the pipewire-pulse package and the upgrade went fine. Will try the pulse replacement by pipewire later again.
To remove pulseaudio and use pipewireis difficult, but not impossible;
first remove all apps using pulsaudio and write down, which.
in this case:
pulseaudio-equalizer
pulseaudio-jack
pulseaudio-lirc
pulseaudio-zeroconf
With pamac its easier - if you get a warning, "remove (long list , containing e.g gdm, dont do that.
Do this as long, as no warning because oif de-install occurs.
Dependencies warning may be ignored - deinstall not
Than try upgrade - if pamac doesnot want to de-install anything, than its o.k.
For pipewire I have installed:
pipewire
pipewire-alsa
pipewire-jack
pipewire-pulse
gst-plugin-pipewire
libpipewire02
and:
systemctl --user enable pipewire.socket
systemctl --user enable pipewire.service
May the force be with youâŠ

Will this break any desktops? I know cinnamon needs the pulseaudio libs and removing pulseaudio used to remove the cinnamon desktop as well. Hopefully this isnât an issue anymore
Everything that removes something else than âpulseaudio*â
WILL break your System!
I am on Gnome. Did remove any pulseaudio-apps before upgrading - IF there was no warning about
removing the System like gdm (or cinnamon-desktop).
The upgrade-script using pamac managed to do this without breakage, whereas on TTY it could not be doneâŠ

So apart from DNSSEC managed by systemd utterly broken for a long time already (does not respond at all from a point on and new updated default resolved.conf has set #DNSSEC=no replacing the previous default #DNSSEC=allow-downgrade), seems like systemd 247.1-1 is buggy with DNSoTLS as well 
Problem solved downgrading to previous 246.6-1, (no systemd-resolved CPU struggle, no Chromium core dumps), Arch adopted 247 too early?

systemd 247.1-1 âwasâ very buggy excepted some bugs on an Arch VPS > is ok with systemd 247.1-3 so in my opinion we should use this version in unstable and testing . In stable stay at 246.6.

So I updated and rebooted. Now nvidia isnt working.
The GUI says that nvidia driver is not installed, so I tried to instal it. but then this message shows up:
" Waiting for user input...
Starting
Error: config 'video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime' conflicts with config(s): video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-455xx-prime
Hecho."
so I try this to remove the old driver
sudo mhwd -r pci video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-455xx-prime
but it complains that removing nvidia-455xx-utils breaks dependency with «nvidia-utils», needed for the package lib32-nvidia-utils
So what now? because it seems Im in a dead end here
Edit:
I was able to yay -R mhwd-nvidia-455xx
but the error is still here when installing from the driver GUI

Edit 2: uninstalling optimus manager fixed the nvidia card not working at all, but the problem above still remains, I cant install the driver that shows up in the driver GUI utility. Would be nice to have instructions about how to fix it since you already knew that were going to break.
Replace issues were solved with nvidia-utils already. I only have to fix mhwd-profiles similar like this. However Iâm more occupied in ARM part of Manjaro, so Iâve less time to do x86_64 stuff.
The Nvidia drivers switch will mess up a lot of systems, so we have to figure out on how to switch the drivers best. Especially those systems with Hybrid drivers âŠ

The first two are imported directly from Arch and are not related to migrating to Python 3.9. Does Pidgin still work? If not, create a new thread in Software & Applications.
As far as python-tesserwrap, it hasnât been updated since 2014. The only thing that requires it is ocrdesktop. The project webpage is dead, canât find anything about it.
Iâm removing them from our repos, youâre on youâre own. Looks like theyâre in the AUR.
