[Testing Update] 2025-03-01 - Kernels, Plasma 6.3.2, Cosmic, LibreOffice, Thunderbird

I am still having this issue every time you upgrade install-grub

The solution is to replace the line 121 in the script to

awk -e '/EFI\\x20\(FAT-12\/16\/32\)|EFI\\x20System|BIOS\\x20boot/ {print $2}' | tr -s '\n'); do

Mind the |BIOS\\x20boot extra piece. Before and after the change I got this:

[alex@alex-b450aoruselite ~]$ sudo install-grub

Simply out of interest - alone or with family?

Try:

pamac update --no-aur --enable-downgrade
pamac update --help
Upgrade your system

pamac upgrade,update [options]

options:
  --force-refresh       : force the refresh of the databases
  --no-refresh          : do not refresh the databases
  --enable-downgrade    : enable package downgrades
  --disable-downgrade   : disable package downgrades

  --overwrite <glob>    : overwrite conflicting files, multiple patterns can be specified by separating them with a comma

  --devel               : also upgrade development packages (use with --aur)
  --no-devel            : do not upgrade development packages
  --builddir <dir>      : build directory (use with --aur), if no directory is given the one specified in pamac.conf file is used

When booting after the last grub update, the boot text is still shown 2 times between the splash screen

Try running update-grub manually, then it should disappear.

I am having problems with asusctl on Linux 6.13.5. The asus_armoury module crashes at boot time. I think it is related to this issue https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/asusctl/-/issues/613. Can you please update asus kernel patches?

EDIT:
It works now. Thanks.
