Solus Updates for Week 45, 2024
Cherry-picked discord 0.0.74
I think it also does this for the first package operation after installing the new eopkg
version, when it initializes the new FilesDB format (and sets it to version 3). After that it should only do rebuilds when you switch between Python 2 and Python 3 eopkg
(the latter uses version 4).

I guess I need to move from i3 to sway and use one of the wayland wallpaper programs, unless there's an alternative.
Since update to kernel 6.11 gnome online accounts is missing from the system settings menu.
After boot nothing is happening (screen off) for about 45 seconds, no input by mouse or keyboard possible, then screen turns on with normal login greeter and a notice that google services don't start - account action is needed. After that I can log in, keyboard and mouse work again. I tried to reinstall gnome online accounts but that does not fix anything.
I guess the missing or not starting online account module is responsible for the timeout after boot. Coincidences with Usr-Merge?
How could I fix that?

dassuan Budgie Users have to use gnome-online-accounts-gtk now. If not installed already, you need to install it and then run from start menu I guess.
synth-ruiner hyprland is now in Solus repos with hyprpaper as a wallpaper app so you can check it
Cherry-picked Element 1.11.85 for CVE-2024-51750, CVE-2024-51749 and CVE-2024-50336.
Cherry-picked
- thunderbird 128.4.3
- vivaldi-stable 7.0.3495.14
Sebastian After running the update, I immediately rerun eopkg to install a package prior to a reboot. This lead to a rebuild of FilesDB. Is this expected behaviour? Does the updated eopkg need to rebuild FilesDB on first run?
That depends on which version of eopkg you had installed when you updated the first time, and which version of eopkg you called when you updated the 2nd time?
Do you just use the normal eopkg
command?

I discovered a problem with X today, and I'm not sure what's causing it or when it actually started.
I was looking through my X timeline, and wanted to hear what some of the people were saying, but there was no sound. According to the speaker icon in my system panel, sound is on. And the audio settings agree with that. I've checked everything that has anything to do with Vivaldi, and it all looks good.
To see whether other applications are affected by this, I launched Elise and selected a music track, which played normally. I also used Vivaldi to stream my TV output to my laptop, and that worked fine.
Has anyone else noticed this? Anyone have an idea what I might do to get sound from X?
