It was really worth waiting for a week more, the harvest was abundant today: 334 packages (1.42 GIB).

On Budgie Desktop, the update (on the Software Center graphic application) remained blocked at the end on the message "Updating Solus Restitory". So I left the application, then I relaunched it, it replied "Software is update". As a precaution, I rebooted my computer and everything has been fine so far.

Thank you for the hard work of the Solus developer team to give us a quality Linux distribution that we could hardly do without today.

Cheers! 👏

Hey Folks, I just ran into a GNOME X11 issue: sometimes, and that for basically as long as I can remember, GNOME app switching shortcut (super+tab) behaves strange. This time it was super+tab didn't switch the app, but only brought the app switching dialog/window, I then had to keep pressing super and repress tab to actually switch the app. Behaviours like that I normally resolve by restarting the GNOME shell with Alt+F2, r, Enter.
Doing so, the shell apparently crashes: I get a white screen with error message: An error occured that could't be resolved by the system. User has to log out. (roughly translated from the german error message). I then can only click log user out and get logged out to gdm login screen, from where I can log in back, but all running windows then are closed, of course.
I reproduced this now 3 times in a row. As long as there are open windows (in my case nheko and GNOME calendar) and you perform the GNOME shell restart with Alt+F2, r, Enter, the crash occurs.

    Small hiccup with the audio, fixed by checking pipewire status through the terminal. All good besides that

    WhiteWolf usually gnome extensions have to be disabled before updating gnome.

      I've had no problem with any of the Solus installation on hardware of virtual machines, but I'm seeing some curious behavior from flarum today.

      The panel on the left side of the screen that ordinarily displays and hides automatically isn't doing that anymore. For me, it displays all the time, and I can't find a way to regain the expected behavior.

      It's not a serious problem, but I much prefer the way it's worked for the last six years or so. Has anyone else noticed this change?

        penny-farthing Have you checked if the menu is pinned:

        No, I hadn't noticed. If I ever knew that was a thing, I'd forgotten about it. I never intentionally pin it, and don't know how it might have happened this time.

        That solved it for me, though. Thanks for pointing that out!

          WetGeek For me, it displays all the time, and I can't find a way to regain the expected behavior.

          I hate when that happens. When I put my cursor over the arrow just now, it revealed the flaming thumbtack icon which is currently visually missing for me. and that's ok. always that the left panel useless anyway.

            I managed to get ray-tracing to work, turns out that you need to set the following variables in Launch Options -

            "VKD3D_CONFIG=dxr,dxr11 PROTON_HIDE_NVIDIA_GPU=0 PROTON_ENABLE_NVAPI=1 gamemoderun %command% --intro-skip -skipStartScreen --launcher-skip --nogamepad -dx12"

            Thank you.

              436 packages (1GB+) went smoothly.

              I also noticed that my logind.conf file has been removed (I set the laptop to ignore the lid switch, but it was suspending since the update), so if you have any non-default behaviour set up in it, check to make sure it's still there!

              Hi,
              Sync went well (471 packages, 2,21G). Systray with Discord, Signal, Element etc (mainly Electron app I guess) does not show funny icons anymore. Great job guys.
              Still same problem with evolution-on (works with KDE on Manjaro, Cinnamon on Debian, nearly with Budgie on Fedora (it actually shows something that is not a proper icon, but it appears in systray), it doesn't want to work with Budgie on Solus.
              One day maybe 🙂

              Great update! Awesome work on the font front 😉

              Anyone gets Brave to freeze and crash recently?

              In the end, it means :

              Might not be big mistake anyway.

                  I just did :
                  sudo eopkg check discord
                  and I got this message :

                  sudo eopkg check discord
                  Programme terminé.

                  which means :

                  Impossible to calculate hash SHA1 from /usr/share/discord/resources/app.asar

                  Don't know if it helps.
                  Maybe an Uninstall/Install will solve the problem ?
