Hi @seth,Ok I ran;strace -o /tmp/nv-settings.strace nvidia-settings -a "[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1" -a "[fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=40"After I ran the cmd, I got this output at the term;ERROR: The current user does not have permission for operation
ERROR: Error assigning value 1 to attribute 'GPUFanControlState' (arch:0[gpu:0]) as specified in assignment '[gpu:0]/GPUFanControlState=1' (Operation not permitted for the current user).

ERROR: Error assigning value 40 to attribute 'GPUTargetFanSpeed' (arch:0[fan:0]) as specified in assignment '[fan:0]/GPUTargetFanSpeed=40' (Operation not permitted for the current user).Here's the output;https://0x0.st/KtE4.txtTHANKS

Only w/ gtk or also w/ Qt or lp (the latter had never been affected by the discussed bug)?Does downgrading cups to the previously working version restore function?The symptom suggest you're sending the PDF as raw data what's usually a misconfigured printer and/or broken filter.=> https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/CUPS/Troubleshooting enable debugging, restart cups, try to print something and post the logs.Probably open a new thread for that as it doesn't fit the general symptom/problem ITT.
Update: I have managed to find a consistent pattern, and I'm able to reproduce the problem at will, have managed to find a workaround, but I have been unable to figure out the cause.The problem has nothing to do with time, so it isn't that "sddm is awaiting on some service". It happens only if my Desktop is initially turned off, and then started. Upon starting the system, regardless of whether the display manager service is enabled, when the display manager starts (either by systemd or I call it in a TTY session), I will face a blank screen.At this point, all I need to do is get on a TTY session and reboot the system. Here's the kicker: whenever I explicitly reboot the system (rather than shut down and then start it again), the greeter pops up on the monitor without any issue.To summarize:1. System initially shut down -> Start system -> greeter does not appear2. System already running -> Reboot (systemctl reboot, reboot now, or whatever other method is considered 'rebooting') -> Greeter will appear after booting.I am quite surprised seeing it behave this way. I still don't know how to make it display the greeter for the first scenario. I'll try doing some more tests and see what sticks on the fence.
Strangely on my other computer with Ubuntu 24.04 it works without any problem. I think if I could identify all components in connecting chain, I'll be able to make it work on Arch as well.

Maybe report to KDE?Tried the none system tray widget... same problem. Its weird, that a different station from the same provider works just fine. Looking at this it seems that one station has a human observer, and the other does not. My suspicion is that at some point, the widget got "updated" and the method for displaying icons got changed. This change must not, some how, account for the source of the weather icon observation... just my guess. Another bug report to KDE.
