Some Nvidia cards donât work with the current 465.31 drivers when used with Display Port and/or 4k Monitors. More about the issue at the Nvidia Developer Forum. We recommend to switch to Nouveau driver as needed. If you however need the Nvidia driver, you can get the PKGBUILDs of the 460.73.01 version and build your driver locally with makepkg or use the pre-compiled packages: nvida-utils, dkms and lib32 + precompiled .

The php package has been updated to version 8.0. Please refer to the upstream migration guide. As some applications are not compatible with PHP 8 yet we provide a php7 package which can be installed alongside version 8. Packages that depend on PHP reflect this update and will require php7 if needed. You might need to update your configuration accordingly. PHP 7 binaries and configuration have the â7â suffix:
Note that support for php7 will be limited and likely be dropped in about a year depending on how soon the majority of applications will be compatible with version 8.
Google has announced that they are going to block everything but Chrome from accessing certain Google features (like Chrome sync) starting on March 15. This decision by Google is going to affect Archâs chromium package a bit earlier, on March 2, when Chromium 89 gets released.
We know for sure that data syncing will stop working (passwords, bookmarks, etc.). Other features such as geolocation or enhanced spell check might continue to function for a bit longer. Extensions integrating with Google Drive might misbehave and LibreOffice will lose access to documents stored there.
Other distros such as openSUSE and Fedora have already removed the soon-to-be-limited API keys from their Chromium 88 packages. Fedoraâs advisory provides a great deal of perspective on this and I also found this Hackaday post to be quite informative.
We recommend to switch over to Nouveau drivers if your card is mentioned here and the feature you need is not in red TO DOhere for your particular card.
If you however still need proprietary drivers, you may want to execute the following to ensure all parts of the nVidia drivers get installed properly:
sudo mhwd -a pci nonfree 0300

Possible 2 Min delay on shutdown with Gnome
Please click the âș at the beginning of this line to view more info
If you got the problem with shutdown delay (about 2min) on Gnome, here is a workaround:
Edit /usr/lib/systemd/user/gnome-session-restart-dbus.service in your favourite editor as root and add Slice=-.slice as a line all by itself like this:
You get [PKGNAME] warning: directory permissions differ on [Directory name]
followed by:
Filesystem: NNN package MMM
Please click the âș at the beginning of this line to view this solution
The solution:
sudo chmod MMM DirectoryName
Where obviously MMM is the second number you see (the correct one)
The explanation:
Your package expects the security permissions to be MMM but your system is set to NNN. This is just a warning (today) but to ensure you remain up-to-date with the latest and greatest security rules itâs advised to execute the above command.
Systemd error message: .slice: Failed to migrate controller cgroups
If you have a similar error message like this:
systemd[1004]: -.slice: Failed to migrate controller cgroups from /user.slice/user-1000.slice/user@1000.service, ignoring: Permission denied
⊠you may need to add this Grub parameter to your /etc/default/grub file in line GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT: systemd.unified_cgroup_hierarchy=true. To update your grub menu, call: sudo update-grub. For more information on that issue, see also Arch Forum.
Python 3.9 Requires Rebuilds
Instructions for quickly and easily rebuilding affected AUR packages:
# Install yay
sudo pacman -S --needed --noconfirm yay
# Rebuild AUR python packages
yay -S --noconfirm $(pacman -Qqo "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages")
The libtraceevent package prior to version 5.9-1 was missing a soname link. This has been fixed in 5.9-1, so the upgrade will need to overwrite the untracked files created by ldconfig. If you get any of these errors
libtraceevent: /usr/lib/libtraceevent.so.1 exists in filesystem
PAM and PAMBASE got updated, which might prevent you from login
Due to updates from pambase and pam you might take care about any .pacnew files in /etc/pam.d as for example pam_tally, pam_tally2 and pam_cracklib got deprecated. Read in the ArchWiki about managing those files.
Typical issue:
For recovery, it is enough to boot with kernel option âsystemd.unit=rescue.targetâ, then proceed into /etc/pam.d and merge âsystem-authâ and âsystem-auth.pacnewâ
System takes a long time to boot
If youâve got errors like Failed to start Network Manager Wait Online. you can try removing systemd from passwd and group in /etc/nsswitch.conf as described here Update: If you can see the line dbus-daemon[1453]: [system] Connection has not authenticated soon enough, closing it (auth_timeout=30000ms, elapsed: 45146ms)
in in your dbus log ( journalctl -b -u dbus ), the new/better workaround is to switch cups from service to socket as described here: systemctl disable cups.service systemctl enable cups.socket
I think Iâve some font problems
With the update of fontconfig some major rules how fonts get applied changed. Make sure that your system has ttf-dejavu installed. A more in depth explanation can be found here.
Gnome-shell-extension-pop-shell is currently incompatible with wayland
⊠and causes the system to freeze when the first window is tiled and can render it unbootable. Solution is a hard reset and disabling either pop shell or wayland. If the system becomes unbootable, use a live USB to edit /etc/gdm/custom.conf to disable wayland and reboot.
This update went very smoothly - no problems encountered.
Thank you very much for the good work!
Especially good news for all nvidia driver 390 users: The driver also runs with the latest 5.13 kernel, no mess, no hassle.
Kudos!
Everything working fine so far. Intel+nvidia hybrid graphics with optimus-manager.
Was hoping to get polybar 3.5.6 in this update, as it fixes an issue regarding dropbox and system tray. Great work nonetheless!
Sorry to disturb you but I was looking for a thread dealing with the new mirrors from CDN77 and itâs the newest that I found.
If Iâm not wrong itâs supposed to provide a new global mirror which can be accessed from Manjaro Repository powered by CDN77.com , itâs a great idea for script and settings and performance also !
Unfortunately, if Iâm not wrong, it is not refreshed since 62 hours (at the time of writing) .
Feel free to move this post to another location if neededâŠ
Everything is okay after the update. I was waiting yesterday for it but it come today.
Just some notes after update and reboot:
Without do or change anythingâŠ
The default theme change from Matcha to Adwaita
After the login screen it shows the new horizontal Gnome and the search. I had to Esc key to get back to the main desktop.
I use the Manjaro traditional layout on Gnome. It is working great.
PC is Ryzen 3600, b550 rog gaming 32Gb RAM 3000, Ndivia MSI GPU 1650.
The Nvidia drivers are the Manjaro defaults that comes with the upgrade.
Kernels 510 and 512
Yes, this is because the qt equilevant of the matcha the is unmaintained, and we are migrating to a more maintainable theme. Thank you for pointing this out, weâll have to figure out how to migrate the qt settings also.
This is the new expected behavior on gnome40. Gnome theme wanted to make the activities overview more discoverable, so desktop automatically starts in it.
Everything went smoothly,
but Iâve noticed that icons in search isnât perfectly aligned to center, unless when searching for âXâ
it should be 6 apps icons or it should be aligned like when searched for âXâ in first photo
The mirrors are up-to-date, however CDN77 cached the old file and serves that. It simply doesnât show that it got updated. Thatâs why it shows outdated. Maybe a CDN is not the right way to do a repo âŠ
Spyder got updated but still crashing at startup , iâve also downgraded Python-decorator to 4.4.2
Jawad â spyder
No QCoreApplication instance found. Application patches not applied. You have to call load_stylesheet function after instantiation of QApplication to take effect.
Warning: Ignoring XDG_SESSION_TYPE=wayland on Gnome. Use QT_QPA_PLATFORM=wayland to run on Wayland anyway.
fish: Job 1, 'spyder' terminated by signal SIGKILL (Forced quit)
About the qt theme, is not problem to me, but find another theme who is maintained will better for development and changes. Maybe something with some round corners âDeepin kind offâ I donât know, I like the rounded corners
I will keep the Adwaita meanwhile.
I donât know if itâs THE good way to do a repo but I cannot browse the site from this url : I always have 404 pages⊠which is not the case with the other âglobalâ repo Index of /manjaro/
According to me, with this kind of status (=âalways out of dateâ), people would never go to the site.
Maybe you could ask CDN77 if the settings are correct for our purpose ? They may have any advice on how to set a repo for our needs ?
CDN77 doesnât list the files as they donât allow browsing. However they are there and I talked to their support. We now purge the static files and prefetch them to be current. Packages are what they are and when uploaded donât need a recache. So I only add index.html files to give you an idea on how to add that network. Browsing is not possible and also not needed for the package manager. Iâm currently using it on my end to check if it works. @Dulbi , @Riggs
The update did go well here, though I should mention that âDash-to-Dockâ fails to load with the error No JS module 'viewSelector' found in search path
I know that @philm was working on a bug, so I thought I would report here. Happy to play/experiment if folks have any ideas.
