Thank you for your reply. So I ran each program through the terminal.
This is what it looks like.

cristobal-angel your snap Chromium is updated? run update. Something in the solus update affected how your sandboxed browser behaves in interesting. I wonder if a service got disabled (systemctl)? It's saying the .conf file is fubard, it's saying the .so is fubard. Its saying in the middle to append the -flag in the conf file?
I wonder if the flatpak is the answer? Don't we have a chromium in repo? I forgot.
You have rebooted Solus since update, right?

brent Thank you for your message.
I'm not sure I understood everything.
Nevertheless, "ReillyBrogan" solved all my bugs and for the moment everything is back to normal. Best regards.

I have figured out a fix for the ping issue and will be cherry-picking a new kernel build shortly.

ReillyBrogan

kwin cherry-picked to fix the previously mentioned frame-rate/stuttering regressions in Plasma

ReillyBrogan

linux-current and addon kernel modules cherry-picked to fix regression with ping and other networking issues.

ReillyBrogan

cristobal-angel can you please retest after applying the new updates and rebooting?

ReillyBrogan The updated kernel fixed the ping issue for me.
Thanks a lot for your super fast support!

cristobal-angel

ReillyBrogan I'm sorry for the late reply.
I ran the update as mentioned and rebooted. After verification, I am very pleased to confirm that FERDIUM, CHROMIUM & JDOWNLOADER2 are now working perfectly.
I'm infinitely grateful for your attention and thank you for your help in resolving these bugs.
Many many thanks !!! Bravo

And that works!
Thanks for asking.
Cheers!

Brave browser doesn't work under wayland 🙁

ReillyBrogan

WhiteWolf That's a Chromium issue I believe. They had a Wayland rendering issue in v124 I think. I believe you can adjust the Chromium flags to work around it, but I don't know if Brave exposes those

WhiteWolf Brave browser doesn't work under wayland

Vivaldi works fine with Wayland. Just sayin'.

And Brave works fine for me too with wayland on Plasma 6.

That's good to know. Wayland on Plasma 6 here as well. Maybe the OP's problem has to do with his DE. He didn't mention which one he was using, or whether it's up-to-date.

WhiteWolf

WetGeek Yeah, forgot to mention I'm using Gnome atm. Gnome wayland and brave wont display properly when I start it. It looks like invisible window blinking.

And regarding Vivaldi, sorry but it doesn't blocks ads as good as Brave. 😛

And I guess other people have the same issue: https://discuss.getsol.us/d/10523-brave-browser-and-mpv-issues-on-wayland-after-update

Cherry-picked discord 0.0.51

alfisya

WhiteWolf Did you try this already?

WetGeek

WhiteWolf And regarding Vivaldi, sorry but it doesn't blocks ads as good as Brave.

I'm not sure what that means. I've used Vivaldi for years on lots of machines, and I haven't seen any ads on one of them yet. I just enable the setting 'Block Trackers and Ads" when I install Vivaldi on a new system and then simply forget about ads.

I also block third-party cookies, as those are usually up to no good.

So what happens when I set it like that,and then have to agree to "Accept all cookies to continue" to a site? I asked a Vivaldi dev. He explained that accepting all cookies means that you tell the site that it's okay to send them to your system, but Vivaldi just won't accept them. So I always click to accept all third party cookies, but never find any on any of my machines.

And to be sure, I don't care what browser (or DE) you like to use. I'm just correcting a misunderstanding about Vivaldi.

WhiteWolf

alfisya yes but it doesn't work,
currently only switching to default/x11 falgs allows to run it under wayland, but it's xwayland 🙁

There's also a novel and obscure solution called Firefox with uBlock Origin.
