people start washing my stream?Well… at least you've then a clean stream So rather network related??Have you tried whether the same happens w/ kwin_x11 (to sort that out)?If the system no longer responds to the sysrq (you did explicitly enable it first as explained in the wiki?) you won't be able to ssh into it either - it would imply a complete kernel halt.Can you keep "dmesg -W" run in a visible terminal window when provoking the crash?by hybrid graphics system you mean multiple GPUsYes.

In general, most (if not all) of the data that go to the NTFS partition is "worthless" to me, it is not of importance, and if it is, it usually have backup.Just to be clear I don't know exactly how long it took for the corruption to start, about 1 year in is when I discovered mangled files that caused functionality issues. One of the signs of things going really wrong was the inability to delete stuff from the NTFS drive. Individual files were fine, a folder with files in it was usually also fine but when I had a big nested directory structure then deleting it became problematic.

I setup arch from the arch install script but then manually installed gnome-shell gdm nautilus ptyxis gnome-control-center, and necessary applications like clocks, characters, papers, code-OSS, firefox, etc...Bluetooth, pipewire etc are working fine and necessary system sounds (I think its called some freedesktop sound files) and other notification daemons are working right.[dwaipayan@archlinux ~]$ pactl infoServer String: /run/user/1000/pulse/nativeLibrary Protocol Version: 35Server Protocol Version: 35Is Local: yesClient Index: 160Tile Size: 65472User Name: dwaipayanHost Name: archlinuxServer Name: PulseAudio (on PipeWire 1.6.8)Server Version: 15.0.0Default Sample Specification: float32le 2ch 48000HzDefault Channel Map: front-left,front-rightDefault Sink: alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereoDefault Source: alsa_input.pci-0000_00_1f.3.analog-stereoCookie: b316:df20[dwaipayan@archlinux ~]$ My arch version (up to date as per 3 Aug 2026):Linux archlinux 7.1.5-arch1-2 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Tue, 28 Jul 2026 13:49:51 +0000 x86_64 GNU/LinuxNow when I run gnome-clocks, select alarm sounds,  click on a few, the app freezes and then I need to 'Force Quit' itTerminal logs:[dwaipayan@archlinux ~]$ gnome-clocks (org.gnome.clocks:6983): org.gnome.Clocks-WARNING **: 23:36:24.143: geocoding.vala:42: Failed to connect to GeoClue2 service: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.AccessDenied: Geolocation disabled for UID 1000** (org.gnome.clocks:6983): WARNING **: 23:36:29.632: utils.vala:473: Invalid soundKilled                     gnome-clocks[dwaipayan@archlinux ~]$ Kindly guide on how to fix this and get the sound.Does it require some another package for sound files or is it a known bug with clocks.Sound files in my system:[dwaipayan@archlinux ~]$ ls -l /usr/share/sounds/freedesktop/stereo/total 520-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 73696 Jul  5  2024 alarm-clock-elapsed.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17015 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-front-center.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 15675 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-front-left.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 19019 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-front-right.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17099 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-rear-center.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14129 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-rear-left.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18791 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-rear-right.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17089 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-side-left.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17198 Jul  5  2024 audio-channel-side-right.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 18152 Jul  5  2024 audio-test-signal.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  5596 Jul  5  2024 audio-volume-change.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  8495 Jul  5  2024 bell.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23142 Jul  5  2024 camera-shutter.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 21073 Jul  5  2024 complete.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  8748 Jul  5  2024 device-added.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  8500 Jul  5  2024 device-removed.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    18 Jul  5  2024 dialog-error.oga -> dialog-warning.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  5666 Jul  5  2024 dialog-information.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 12182 Jul  5  2024 dialog-warning.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 22733 Jul  5  2024 message-new-instant.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 10429 Jul  5  2024 message.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    16 Jul  5  2024 network-connectivity-established.oga -> device-added.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    18 Jul  5  2024 network-connectivity-lost.oga -> device-removed.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 25889 Jul  5  2024 phone-incoming-call.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  7996 Jul  5  2024 phone-outgoing-busy.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  4792 Jul  5  2024 phone-outgoing-calling.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    16 Jul  5  2024 power-plug.oga -> device-added.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    18 Jul  5  2024 power-unplug.oga -> device-removed.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    18 Jul  5  2024 screen-capture.oga -> camera-shutter.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 17274 Jul  5  2024 service-login.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14573 Jul  5  2024 service-logout.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  6849 Jul  5  2024 suspend-error.oga-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 38223 Jul  5  2024 trash-empty.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    18 Jul  5  2024 window-attention.oga -> dialog-warning.ogalrwxrwxrwx 1 root root    18 Jul  5  2024 window-question.oga -> dialog-warning.oga[dwaipayan@archlinux ~]$ -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

for some apps, but not all; I'm still running into this issue.Specifically? Stale/dated/cruft?flatpak uninstall --unused flatpak repair?

Hi there,Stumbled on this issue recently. When launching Chromium on sway a thin vertical bar is present on the right side.It is installed from arch repos and has the "wayland session management" enabled.This black bar does not persist after a change of window, usually just switching to my file manager on the same sway workspace and coming back to chromium makes the bar disappear.I'll be happy to add more details if needed

using a single user and a single session so login managers seem a bit redundantYup, I'd (and personally do) just boot into a locked autostarted session.Please always remember to mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.Thanks.Edit: hypridle aborts out of a thread termination, there's likely some error message somewhere (since an abort is a controlled exit)

I had this error today after installing kafka for the first time.  Scrolling up to the pacman output, I saw this:( 6/125) installing kafka [########################################################] 100% ========== You should migrate kafka metadata, example command sudo -u kafka /usr/bin/kafka-storage.sh format -t "$(/usr/bin/kafka-storage.sh random-uuid)" -c /etc/kafka/server.properties --standaloneRunning the command it showed fixed the problem.  (Would be nice if messages in pacman were placed at the end so they're not lost in the wash).Would it be reasonable to add this to the wiki page (https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Apache_Kafka) which does not mention this step?

Start by looking at or posting the unfiltered journal that actually has a chance to cover the problem?

https://github.com/elementary/greeter/c … f3e38dcc2c doesn't seem to be in any release.https://archlinux.org/packages/extra-st … wingpanel/ is in staging over a month now, i might just have been forgotten there…nb thatinstalling the pantheon group in pacman leads to not a Minimal Installationhttps://archlinux.org/packages/?name=li … on-greeter is only relevant if you're using lightdm tbw and pantheon (similar to budgie) is kinda an extreme monkeypatch on the notoriously unstable gnome (which frequently breaks its own extensions w/ major updates)

I managed to figure out the solution. It turns out it was a thing from gtk3-classic patches (I believe?) I am not sure why it didnt apply for qt applications when they used the gtk file chooser.I didn't want to remove the patches but i just put this in ~/.config/gtk-3.0/gtk.css:filechooser, filechooser *, placessidebar, placessidebar * { -gtk-icon-style: symbolic; }

@sethhonestly didn't bothered to even look - i use dolphin with ark on kde - or konsole anywaytried gnome once - just not my style (although i can see it fits well others')

It tries to create a ~3MB 987x779 32bit image and runs into VK_ERROR_OUT_OF_DEVICE_MEMORYIf that's legit you've squandered the memory before/elsewhere but#5 0x00007fb68abdd63d in gsk_gpu_device_create_offscreen_image (self=<optimized out>, with_mipmap=0, format=987, is_srgb=<optimized out>, width=987, height=779) at ../gtk/gsk/gpu/gskgpudevice.c:306looks sketchy (see the format value matching the width, might be bug or stack corruption)

There is a pin button  which is a global (not per-application) "keep this menu open" setting. I've somehow missed that.Marking as [SOLVED]!

Had to install gst-plugins-good to fix notification sounds. This is because gajim switched from using GSound/libcanberra to using GTK4's Gtk.MediaFile API for playing sound files between 2.4.4 and 2.4.6.
