I think i have the same panel crash issue on Budgie too. Here is my journal from starting update to rollback and panel-applets screenshot.

I share with you volume, ethernet, and on/off button plus Raven.
those we share.
Did you restore your Budgie?
I don't know how to move forward recovering my Budgie yet.

EDIT: thanks for corroborating and posting at Buddies of B

(Sorry for the English translation )So lately when I update with Discover after a while I get an error which is nothing new, but what's new is that it often stops even with eopkg upgrade, today for example it always stuck here:

Scaricamento di 27/265

However, after several attempts it was successful, so everything is ok, X11 and Plasma seem improved to me

I lost the Wfi applet after the update. I still get connection and Bluetooth applet is there and working.

EDIT: Rebooting or Shutdown solves nothing BUT logout and login does the magic (I use automatic login)

EbonJaeger Another good way to do this when stuck at tty is to use https://termbin.com/

i have a same bug after update to day. it budgie

i can't login alway say "A problem has occurred and the system can't recover please log out and try again. " and i try again but it response the same thing

what shoud i do now?

pomon

kawkla1 Go to TTY (Ctrl+Alt+F2 or F2-F5). Execute:
sudo eopkg check | tee /dev/stderr | grep Broken | awk '{print $4}' | xargs sudo eopkg it --reinstall
Restart.

Original-Syn

pomon You only need to do sudo eopkg check now. If it finds something broken, it will offer to reinstall it directly without the other stuff.

pomon i try now it but not work 😥

brent I opened a TTY and did rollback with eopkg history -t command. No problems for now, i will wait for a fix before updating again.

Bold 🙂.
thanks for the info.
Buddies has requested that I ask the Solus maintainers what the Solus way is of doing a gdb backtrace is so I can furnish it to them.

Think I may rollback as well. thanks again

Can't update flatpak via terminal. I usually run flatpak update and restart the the application when notified of a new version. The command returns a nothing to do output and the applications have new versions available.

Solved , updated versions of apps haven't been uploaded to Flathub.

Uh when using my laptop a gnome advertisement popped up where notifications usually do
and said gnome needs your help i didnt catch all of what it said.
Are we in the advertisement business now?
This is a no go for me will not use an Os that does this.

Solus budgie.

Original-Syn

Axios It is not Solus, this is a Gnome thing.
See https://linuxiac.com/gnome-plans-new-donation-reminder-pop-up-in-upcoming-release/

AlphaElwedritsch

Axios This is a question about a possible donation. It comes directly from Gnome and has nothing to do with Solus. It was introduced a few Gnome versions ago and happens very rarely. It's only happened to me twice. In my opinion, it has nothing to do with being intrusive or advertising. But fine, if you can't or don't want to live with it, there are plenty of alternatives. Nobody's forcing you to use Gnome...

sounds like part of a script wasn't snipped out of the updated gnome stuff (haven't read O-Cyn's link yet). If I was able to use my Budgie and log into it I'd probably be appalled to but I'm sure it's a one-time thing. hang in there we've lived thru updates like this before 🙂

Sebastian

Axios The donation reminder was newly introduced to GNOME to help with funding. This is only supposed to show in GNOME and only twice a year. But since Budgie is still kind of based on GNOME this pop-up somehow snug into Budgie as well I guess.
If so, that's a problem for the Budgie devs to solve.

Edit:
to turn donation-reminder off run:
gsettings set org.gnome.settings-daemon.plugins.housekeeping donation-reminder-enabled 'false'

Original-Syn I may have to convert totally over to kde then
Wonder if I install anything gnome on kde if it will have that issue
Does xfce use gnome?
Thanks for enlighting me.

Axios

AlphaElwedritsch Ya I know its gnome but it hits a sore spot with me.

AlphaElwedritsch

just hope KDE doesn't ask for a donation sometime. 😉 And what does XFCE have to do with Gnome?

Original-Syn

AlphaElwedritsch KDE does once a year in December, but can be disabled. They got input from the userbase, and it allowed them to get more funding than they ever had before. Unlike Gnome, which gets funding from Red Hat, Ubuntu, and other corporations, KDE does not. Because of the way they do it, I did not mind as much. They took the Thunderbord approach.
