Great update. No problems. Thanks!

Just a later addition to those who may come to this area:
YES, themes will be broken UNTIL they are brought into GTK+3 compliance, and YES definitely change the LightDM theme to one that IS support (Vertes is a good choice).

Thanks Manjaro team - I am happy as a peach here.

Steam works, VM works, MDM XFCE works - no noticeable problems with the themes but I changed to vertex anyway - because it looks good.

I am updating on a VB VM, running Manjaro with OpenRC.  After update, on reboot the boot process hangs just before lightdm, so I have a black screen and a flashing underscore cursor...it is taking no kb input, and the only action I can take is to close the vm, or issue a ctrl-alt-del through the VB interface....

UPDATE: alt-f1 produces a tty, so I can log in.  rc-status says xdm has crashed -- do we have a fix for this?

Hi, have a look here:

I had this in a VB with pure Arch and installing xorg-drivers fixed it for me (probably just luck).

Stabl;e update good, thanks team.

I'll see what I can do, but my desktop theme and Firefox theme are no longer working right.  Arc-Dark.  Also, since two updates ago, system applications still fail to launch from the menu.  I have to launch them from terminal. 

It would be a good idea for developers to post why things are breaking a lot lately.  Every update previous to the last three went smoothly for me.  I might have had problems with packages not updating, but they were easily and quickly solved.  These latest updates, however, have been annoying as hell.
 
 

Update:  Managed to fix my theme.  But I would still like to know what to do so that I can begin to launch system applications from the menu again.

Anyway, my frustration was not aimed at anybody.  It was just me venting in public -- classy as it was.

I tried to run Steam after this update and nothing happened. I ran the steam command in the terminal and goes this message:

Code: [Select]

Running Steam on manjarolinux 15.12 64-bit
STEAM_RUNTIME is enabled automatically
Installing breakpad exception handler for appid(steam)/version(1459463254)

libGL error: driver pointer missing
libGL error: failed to load driver: i965
libGL error: unable to load driver: swrast_dri.so
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
Any recommendations?

I'm having a similar problem with XFCE that others have mentioned in this thread. After booting i get a black screen with a grey bar on the bottom that occasionally flickers. Things I've tried:

installing themes: sudo pacman -S vertex-maia-themes vertex-maia-icon-theme xcursor-maia

reinstalling graphics drivers using mhwd

using kernel 4.1.23-1 instead of 4.4.8-1

downgrading gtk3 3.20 to 3.18 and lib32-gtk 3.20 to 3.18

So far nothing has worked. Anyone have any ideas?

A guy told me in the last page to use this code in a terminal

Code: [Select]

find ~/.steam/root/ -name "libgpg-error.so*" -print -delete
It worked for me, hope it helps u too :]

I think this update would break lightdm webkit greeter because I believe that's what happens to mine.

That fixed it. Thanks. I guess it would help to read through the forum feed (of whatever it's called).

The Emacs 24 toolbar comes up empty after the GTK update. Has anyone found a solution for that yet?

[jubileu]

Firefox on Xfce also broke for me, visually. No scrollbutton on the scrollbar, low contrast on selected text, no text on url suggestions, no text on right click. Guess I'll have to stick to Chromium for a while...

[philm]

Regarding themes it would be easier to read the first post. We already added some workarounds for steam and ufw ...
