[Unstable Update] December 2023 Edition

I must be missing something, since the shutdown entry doesn’t appear in my GRUB :thinking:

You’ve gotta run update-grub . otherwise :person_shrugging:

Firefox 120.0.1 appears to have broken Jira transitions. Reverting to 119.0.1 resolves it.

Never mind, the update was coincidental to the actual root cause (service migrating to another provider which my DNS had blocked).

I did. Even with both grub-install and it afterwards, since it didn’t seem to work on its own :thinking:

You probably forgot to set the executable bit for both files before running update-grub.

Just to be sure, I ran memtest86+ for 15 hours, and tried Mint and Fedora live environments. No reboots in multiple shutdown attempts. Arch, fix your *#$%! :laughing:

Yup, that did the trick. Didn’t even know that was required, since I’ve only played with kernel parameters when it comes to GRUB. :heart:
P.S. And no reboots when poweroff is given through there, either.

Update:
I’ve had two successful shutdowns from the operating system since today’s updates. I do not know if it’s something in kernel 6.6.4-6, or some other package, but things seem to be back to normal :crossed_fingers:

Edit:

0001-drm-amd-Put-dGPUs-into-D3cold-when-shutting-down-the.patch

That did seem related in file name, at least. Patch has now been removed.

We removed the experimental AMD patches as they created issues and failed internal tests at AMD.

kgamma is appearing here as an orphan. Is it still necessary for when you want to adjust the monitor’s gamma settings, or has it been replaced by another program?

:wink: :point_down:

❯ pacman -Sii kgamma | grep 'Required By\|Optional For'
Required By     : plasma-meta
Optional For    : None

Whatever was changed between yesterday and today has brought my reboot-on-shutdown issues back. Nothing in the last session logs, but the same MCEs as previously in the reboot after:

[    1.047089] mce: [Hardware Error]: CPU 0: Machine Check: 0 Bank 5: bea0000001000108

Edit: Interestingly, I cannot recreate that failed shutdown again. What I had updated in that session were these:

[2023-12-13T17:44:51+0200] [ALPM] upgraded thin-provisioning-tools (1.0.9-1 -> 1.0.9-2)

[2023-12-14T00:25:51+0200] [ALPM] upgraded xorg-server (21.1.9-1 -> 21.1.10-1)

Perhaps some of these were relevant, in one way or another.

Is it normal to have this message on non GNOME desktops ? I think the message talks about GNOME extensions while I’m running Plasma.

yay -S pamac-gtk3

Good catch. I’ll remove that bit with pamac-gtk3 10.6.0-3.

A post was split to a new topic: Issues with Libadwaita / GTK4 applications

The current update gives the following error:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: installing icu (74.2-1) breaks dependency 'icu<74.2' required by manjaro-settings-manager

Moderator edit: In the future, please use proper formatting: [HowTo] Post command output and file content as formatted text

The icu 74 rebuilds were just pushed. Wait for your mirror(s) to sync.

On Intel iGPU, latest mesa 23.3.1-1 breaks all pure GTK4 and libAdwaita apps.

It’s fixed by downgrading mesa (1:23.3.1-1 -> 1:23.1.9-1)

Which one’s in the wrong here?

warning: directory permissions differ on /usr/share/polkit-1/rules.d/

Usually with those warnings you follow the package unless you know better.
