there is also an issue on gnome with apps that are minimized when doing alt-f2+r, they become like ghost apps, some transparent and some not, they cant be clicked and only revert to normal after selecting them in alt-tab or by min/maxing them by other means. big screenshot

Tourette I don't see how that's relevant to this specific update?

@Lucien_Lachance Yea I'm able to reproduce the issue. Seems to be an upstream GNOME Shell issue, no fix for it yet though: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/issues/1059 - Fortunately most users aren't going to be randomly restarting GNOME Shell.

I'm using Solus Budgie 4.0 and the About section in the Control Center used to show that the main disk is 128 GB. Now, after the update it shows a 640 GB disk, even though it's on the same disk. That's all.

JoshStrobl 1. I am using GNOME

Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060/REV 2.0 G1 Gaming 6G
These are the lines with errors:
line 744 - failed to query NVIDIA devices
line 764 - failed to start NVIDIA persistence daemon
line 904 - unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.Shell.desktop
last couple lines - 2 statements of: gkr-pam: unable to locate daemon control file
I do not have automatic login enabled.

JoshStrobl

beerminer The persistence daemon issue is currently normal and shouldn't affect reaching login. Did you have any extensions enabled for GNOME Shell or PAM modules enabled? If not, I would try:

Re-installing GNOME Shell, GDM, and gnome-session: sudo eopkg install --reinstall gnome-shell gdm gnome-session
Resetting world-clocks: dbus-launch gsettings reset org.gnome.clocks world-clocks
You may have a setting in dconf that is causing issue, you can try moving your settings file: mv ~/.config/dconf/user ~/.config/dconf/user.bak

Tourette mine shows 2.2 tb, its a 1tb disk, although i have another 1tb disk with windows, its not mounted

JoshStrobl

Tourette Gotcha. Is it misreporting in GNOME Disks as well or just GNOME Control Center?

brent

brent Re-booted and double-checking since I don't want to eat my words. As far as Icons, my Faba trash can got fat, ugly, and metallic. That is all.
Tiredof Faba anyways, so just switched to Paper. It's lovely. File this under 'don't care.'

beerminer

JoshStrobl Was getting nowhere, so I completed a fresh install and then did just the updates (did not install any new apps or remove anything). Now it is hit or miss whether i get the login screen vs TTY when rebooting. On the plus side, both my laptops did fine with the updates...at a loss for the desktop.

Tourette

JoshStrobl Just the Control Center. GNOME Disks is fine.

JoshStrobl

Tourette For me it's reporting correctly.

Under inxi -D

Drives:    Local Storage: total: 4.77 TiB used: 986.15 GiB (20.2%) 
           ID-1: /dev/sda vendor: Kingston model: SUV400S37240G size: 223.57 GiB 
           ID-2: /dev/sdb vendor: Toshiba model: DT01ACA200 size: 1.82 TiB 
           ID-3: /dev/sdc vendor: Toshiba model: DT01ACA300 size: 2.73 TiB

Under GNOME Control Center:

4.77 TiB is 5.24 TB.

Tourette

JoshStrobl Oh, so now it summarizes all disks, whether they are mounted or not? Okay then.

VS Code renders the UI too big, as if it's applying font scaling twice.
I also get random GUI lockups from time to time, like everything just stops for about 5 seconds. Always happens at least once soon after logging in.

JoshStrobl

trewdys I'm not able to reproduce your issue with Visual Studio Code (which do note, is not a native application, but rather Electron-based, and therefore not actually affected by our branding package changes as an example). Are you sure you don't just have the view zoomed in? Go to View -> Appearance and at the bottom there is a Reset Zoom option.

JoshStrobl

@mariojuniorjp I deleted your post because it contains an image which shows explicit content in it. Regarding your memory usage, it is indeed likely related to Nautilus file caching. Nothing we can do about it at the moment, we're on an old Nautilus to retain desktop icons.

mariojuniorjp

JoshStrobl Thanks for you support. 😉
I noticed that a random core gets 100% causing serious performance issues.

Re budgie desktop settings, switching off dark theme doesn’t do anything. Would be nice to be able to turn off.

JoshStrobl

Swelch1951 That isn't specific to this stack upgrade, that was the case for Solus 4. I plan on having it be switched to Dark Theme enabled and Plata as the GTK Theme in the future so the toggle works as intended, as well as changing the toggle to appropriately switch between dedicated theme variants (such as doing it for Adapta Nokto as well).

When I installed this round of updates last week (I temporarily switched to the unstable repo) I had the same issue twice.

One time, it occurred out of nowhere (it was not the 1st boot after installing updates), the 2nd time a game played via Wine crashed my system, and it happened after I rebooted.

Both times I resolved the issue by using eopkg history to roll back the update.

JoshStrobl

Junglist Well we can't investigate and potentially the issue unless you provide comprehensive logs. I would suggest providing those via our development tracker.

I might be hitting @beerminer 's issue as well. After the update I am also booting straight to the TTY (though in my case it is consistent, or at least I haven't been lucky on getting to GDM yet). I am using the built-in amdgpu driver however (with a FirePro W4100 card). In my case it appears that gnome-shell is failing to start on boot:

May 03 13:48:33 myhost gnome-shell[1100]: Failed to create backend: No GPUs found with udev
May 03 13:48:33 myhost gnome-session[1091]: gnome-session-binary[1091]: WARNING: App 'org.gnome.Shell.desktop' exited with code 1
May 03 13:48:33 myhost gnome-session-binary[1091]: WARNING: App 'org.gnome.Shell.desktop' exited with code 1
May 03 13:48:33 myhost gnome-session-binary[1091]: Unrecoverable failure in required component org.gnome.Shell.desktop
May 03 13:48:33 myhost gdm[1004]: Child process -1087 was already dead.

I'm also not seeing any errors with dmesg or journalctl that indicate that the gpu failed to initialize. Once in the TTY I was able to get to the desktop by running sudo systemctl restart gdm.service, perhaps the issue is that gdm isn't waiting for the gpu drivers to be fully initialized?

JoshStrobl

ReillyBrogan Do you have the experimental Wayland session package installed by any chance? We have an issue from 2017 about it, Ubuntu has a more recent one as well.
