OMFG!!! I would never have looked there. I checked it the first time it happened and there was DEFINATELY no checkbox so I would not go back and check again!
Must have been updated after, or I was blind.
Thank you! 
Now I have to make sure the rest is working, because I THINK it went into sleep instead of turning the monitor off after dim time ended.
Yeah! I think it came very recently with one of the updates 
You’re very welcome, cheers! 
Regarding kpeoplevcard: this is only a matter of versioning schema convention, the newest package version is supposed to be 0.1-2 but the previously installed (Manjaro packaged) version is 0.1+r38.32d50a9-1 which semantically seems more recent.
This is the manual bypass that worked for me:
sudo pacman -S kpeoplevcard=0.1-2
Yay was trying to offer all sorts of modifications (upgrades/downgrades) to make it work but no option seemed to work, same goes for pamac, running this command fixed it.
Yes, see
Continuing the discussion from [Unstable Update] 2023-10-08 - GNOME 45:
Well, dude, its in the other branches now.
The point was to report and inquire. For some reason you couldnt respond to either in a reasonable manner.
So its going to continue to be asked … and continue to look like a mistake.
Even if no other action is taken … you could clarify that its intentional for debugging or something instead of getting mad at the question.
Though … if that were the purpose … why in production to the branches and for so long? …
In case you forgot, this is a reminder 
The problem I brought up in the previous thread seems to be an Nvidia issue:
I can live with dips to 72 frames-per-second 'til the fix, but this is awful for people with 75 Hz monitors…
Feature drivers need time to mature. That is why we kept production drivers in stable and testing branches of Nvidia for now.
I’m on unstable also - fully updated - but I see no problem with octopi here ?
As a matter of fact, I don’t see problems anywhere ! 
Turns out it was a false alarm at the OP’s system…
Greetz,
Eddy
You should have read the linked thread: a config file was identified as the culprit and it was resolved by removing it and letting it recreate.
The update to sudo 1.9.15.p2-1 generated /etc/sudoers.pacnew. Are there any important changes that I should merge?
Thats what the pacnew is for.
the new Linux 67 kernel has been named as rc7 rather than rc1 which is current…

firefox developer edition is behaving strange after kernel rebuilding.
One could suspect that hardware acceleration is in play - I am not completely sure why it is hanging - actually completely freezing the system - a switch to console (TTY)
takes 5s to complete - running a pkill firefox brings system back from the ‘dead’

Using backup browser Vivaldi to write this.
Normal firefox seems to be less unaffected … although hanging can be observed for a few seconds - system becomes unresponsive - no mouse movement etc. - the returns to normal after a few seconds.
No problems here but everything here is so different I doubt it will help…
I have been using 6.7 since the middle of the merge window, all Manjaro patches are commented out for my build
Firefox Dev 120.0b9 (64-bit) is the Mozilla build

Whoooops! Thank you. I was a little tired when I pushed that PKGBUILD last night, I guess …
Fixed now and currently rebuilding.
After a rest and returning to my computer - I find the freeze and hanging to be more widespread.
Vivaldi is hanging so I am thinking GPU driver - all kernel based on my system.
I have rebuilt kernel to
$ uname -r
6.7.0-rc1-next-20231115-1-next-git-01493-gbc962b35b139-dirty
But I had to use Xorg where I usually use plasma-wayland-session - to be able to open a brower to do followup
EDIT: switching between wayland and xorg is ATM the difference between a working system or a hung system - so I am thinking

I also installed 6.7.0-rc1 for a little rc-testing and found that firefox needed seconds to start (normally it starts without any noticeable delay). Also running vlc had some issues. Running journalctl I found lots of
kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* Failed to send PXP TEE message
kernel: i915 0000:00:02.0: [drm] *ERROR* Failed to send tee msg for inv-stream-key-15, ret=[-62]
messages, which have not been there using 6.6.1. Being no linux kernel expert I then switched back to 6.6.1 and everything is o.k. again.
PS: I am running newest Manjaro KDE Unstable with X11.
I don’t see any usefulness in posting issues with release candidate kernels in this forum/thread.
If you think there are issues: please use the proper channels so kernel developers can be made aware and possibly fix some.
