Week 6, 2026

mkl

Normally, Gnome remains stable even after an update. But today it's a bit unstable.

My extensions (Dash to Dock, Bluetooth Battery Meter) had to be adjusted (extensions and Gnome updates are always a bit of a hassle...) and my Nextcloud client icon no longer looks right. See screenshot. I can't seem to fix it properly.

No problem on Budgie here

Everything is fine on XFCE. Thanks to the team

All looks good on Plasma for me after 184 package update.
Good work yet again. Many thanks to the team.

151 packages updated in Solus today and everything seems OK.

Following this update, I've successfully recovered the original Safe Eyes icon in the system tray and the application appears correctly in the menu, thanks to @EbonJaeger .

Furthermore, after installing the new version of the kernel 6.18.8-326, I tested the Suspend and Hibernate functions on my computer and these tests were successful (on Budgie).

Thanks to the whole team.

Rei

New kernel, yeah! KDE updated and everything works fine. Thanks a lot!

Just remembered, if you have a Intel GPU and noticed missing textures in games, a work around was added to mesa as part of this weeks sync.

The magic of Solus
Everything is back to normal overnight, seemingly by magic.
I think Solus has self-healing powers 😉

After updating, everything works as usual, special kudos to RoCM Team for the effort in getting it updated, also Blender 5!!

As soon as I have wayland on budgie I would ask no more! (even though X11 still rocks on this DE)

DinimixisDEMZ GNOME 49.3

Sure? Sync raises Gnome to version 49.4

minh

DinimixisDEMZ confirm screen sharing is broken. You could see the error logs from this command

systemctl --user status xdg-desktop-portal-gnome.service

mkl Specifically, I'm referring to gnome-shell, which was released in version 49.3. I confirmed the error with two other friends who use Solus GNOME. The problem seems to be with window management?. You can verify the problem by following the steps and having someone else watch the stream, or you can check it yourself by going to full screen and watching the stream. It looks choppy.

The error does not occur in Arch Linux (they have version 49.3.1 there)

Data: I also use Variable Refresh Rate.

mkl 😅... The update is really from 49.3, 49.4 does not exist yet, it was a writing error in publication.

minh i check, and verify also in niri (same desktop portal)

A problems is directly on gnome.... i see.

A bug does not occur instantly, but by switching between windows (full screen, and not full screen) in other workspaces and going to one. (This look in transmission | desktop-share) and verify using obs and gpu-screen-recorder and a videos see ok?. That's really weird bro.

Cherry-picked libpng v1.6.55 - Security fix

My heart skipped a beat when I found myself not in the sudoer file anymore after update, but after a reboot everything was fine. Thanks to everyone!
