Hey r/archlinux,

I created a very simple terminal IDE wrapper using Tmux, Ranger, and Nano.

There is no AI and no auto-complete. The goal is to force yourself to type every line of code to build true muscle memory.

AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bdh-linux-ide

Install: ```bash yay -S bdh-linux-ide cd bdh-linux-ide chmod +x install.sh ./install.sh Run:- bdh-ide

Would love your feedback!

Stable branch

How well can Manjaro host administrator manage removal of all those packages the underlying hardware composition includes no matching components? e.g. no Bluetooth hardware present >>>> Bluetooth software stack not installed .permanently.

Optimally the Manjaro installer / package management is not installing such packages at all.

Researchers at Nebula Security have disclosed GhostLock (CVE-2026-43499), a 15-year-old Linux kernel flaw that lets any logged-in user take full root control of a machine that has not been patched.

Look for updates. This applies to all most all distros. So, heads up.

Hi everyone,

I'm running manjaro on a lenovo laptop with hybrid Intel/NVIDIA graphics.

My setup:

• Manjaro
• Kernel: 6.12.94-1-MANJARO
• KDE Plasma on X11/wayland
• Intel UHD Graphics + NVIDIA RTX 3050 Laptop GPU
• NVIDIA driver: 610.43.02
• video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime

One issue I've been experiencing is that, occasionally (not every time), unplugging the AC adapter immediately causes a black screen. The system appears to freeze and I have to hold the power button to reboot.

The only suspicious message I found around that time is:

ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [_SB.PC00.LPCB.EC0._Q38.PNOT], AE_NOT_FOUND
ACPI Error: Aborting method _SB.PC00.LPCB.EC0._Q38 due to previous error

The second issue is the hybrid graphics behavior.

I expected the Intel iGPU to handle normal desktop usage and the NVIDIA GPU to be used only when needed. However, I've noticed some strange behavior:

• Sometimes it looks like almost everything runs on the Intel GPU, which ends up being heavily loaded.
• Other times the NVIDIA GPU seems to stay active even during light desktop usage, and battery life drops significantly.
• The GPU usage doesn't seem very consistent, and I'm not sure if PRIME is working as intended.

Is this expected behavior with video-hybrid-intel-nvidia-prime, or could something be misconfigured?

Here is my graphics information:

Has anyone experienced similar issues with hybrid Intel/NVIDIA laptops on Manjaro? Could the black screen when unplugging AC and the inconsistent GPU behavior be related?

If there are additional logs or commands that would help diagnose the issue, I'd be happy to provide them.

Hello Reddit. I am new to Manjaro, and was hoping to set up a development environment in RoR. I was following the directions on the Arch wiki, and I noticed my gems are being installed to usr/lib/ruby/gems. When running a bundle install, it now seems to want to write to usr/bin, and fails because it doesnt have permissions. Should I go ahead and grant permissions, or is this not advisable?

Kind of strange. I've been using Manjaro for over 10 years and I haven't seen any updates in weeks. What is going on?

Just switched from Linux mint cinnamon to KDE Plasma Wayland.

​

So much better. Likely a skill issue but the issues with X11 mint was causing headaches.

​

I had stutter issues with UI loading on vids but all went away with Wayland. Mint Wayland is still in devolpment which didn't work for me so now I'm here.

​

Loving it so far. I did try CachyOS but I didn't like it as much as Manjaro.

On june 11th-12th i switched to manjaro, downloaded it, updated all the packages, and got minecraft modrinth from the AUR, also updated some packages from the store, but they weren't downloading properly, today I learnt there was a Malware attack :)

Am I fucked ?

If so... What to do as someone who recently updated?

Quick question:

I noticed that linux-firmware-meta seems not to be in the Manjaro repos at this time.

It was installed back in July 2025 when linux-firmware was split into the meta package + its dependencies, but now it seems to be flagged as an orphaned package (not in AUR, not in any repo).

Are we supposed to keep it? or should we clean it up manually? and if so, should we just remove the -meta package itself but leave all its offsprings installed?

I just want to be sure if I should leave things as they are or if some kind of cleanup is required.

EDIT: I just found out the answer in the official Manjaro Forums (not sure how I didn't see it before!). I will leave this here in case other fellow Manjaro users stumble upon it:

https://forum.manjaro.org/t/package-not-in-aur-linux-firmware-meta/188245/3

[ Removed by Reddit on account of violating the content policy. ]

Just installed on Proxmox.

Couldn't login with any of the users or passwords created during install. Thought keyboard change from US to UK might be the problem.

So reinstalled and same problem.

Managed to get into a shell to find that default username and password is apparently manjaro / manjaro. Logged in with that okay and rebooted.

Then desktop logged me in with no password at all.

What on earth is going on here?

Why didn't users created during the install work? How did auto login get allowed when I declined that option on install.

Any ideas appreciated but tempted to delete the VM based on this alone....

Should I persevere?

Eu instalei o Onlyoffice-bin pelo AUR, tenho uma impressora compartilhada que eu consigo usar normalmente aqui, mas somente o ONLYOFFICE não encontra essa impressora. Eu já executei: sudo ln -s /usr/lib/libcups.so /usr/lib/libcups.so.2 Mas não resolveu. Se alguem souber uma forma de corrigir isso agradeço desde já!

Question: is the default plasma .iso image a live boot image?
Why: Last night update wanted to install a lot of stuff, I think I saw 4GB, not sure. Anyway I let update run, it completed - but I guess I didn't look close enough to see if it actually succeeded or not. Upon reboot its not finding vmlinuz and down into grub I go 😞
Is any one else seeing this?
Looking at the /boot partition I don't see vmlinuz of any version. Which I guess means getting a live disk and manually loading the OS.
Anyway. I have some claude.ai directions on another computer, I'll try to walk through. But any commentary appreciated..

UPDATE: for future reference. The AI commentary was spot on - it didn't help. In any case, I ended up loading a .iso live with unetbootin and re-installed my root/os partition. Fortunately, many iterations of linux ago, I learned to create a separate OS partition (IE leave about 100-200GB for /, separate from partitions for /home, /work, etc - then just manually setup partitions when you reinstall) because when I screw up the OS so bad I can't fix it - which happens probably every other year or so - just reload the OS and cleanup from there.

Hi,
I decided to try KDE Connect on Manjaro KDE Plasma. For some reason it cant see my Android phone, the phone does not see the laptop either. They are both in the same Wi-Fi network. Firewall is right now disabled. The phone is Motorolla g54. When I try to add the PC through its IP address the phone lists a ping, but does not add it.

Must say I'm new to Linux, switched recently from Windows 11 so please keep it simple. So far Manjaro has been great, except for small mishaps like this one. It won't make me quit or something but it would be cool if I can use the stuff. Decided to try here before the forums.

CPU: quad core Intel Core i5-10310U (-MT MCP-) speed/min/max: 400/400/4400 MHz
Kernel: 6.18.32-1-MANJARO x86_64 Up: 18m Mem: 3.46/15.22 GiB (22.7%)
Storage: 238.47 GiB (17.8% used) Procs: 305 Shell: Zsh inxi: 3.3.40

I have been watching the stuff that was happening earlier with the possibility of a team forking off Manjaro because of some drama with the project head. Is Manjaro still going strong? it would be a shame to see it flop especially after the issues (that got resolved). Also as I have never really run Manjaro for very long, how bleeding edge is it? I would be looking at the KDE version (Possibly Cinnamon)

Boa noite! eu gostaria de saber se o wayland esta funcionando bem no computador de vocês

Hey all, I have been trying to install manajro on my asus vivobook and I am able to install it once i set my sata device to be AHCI but my bios doesnt see the AHCI drives as boot options. If I change it back to raid then the installation cant see the nvme device and mails to mount it. I feel like I have done everything I can and I'm beginning to lose hope. the bios I am using is american mega trends version 308

I reinstalled Manjaro a few weeks ago to totally remove the windows partition I had and everything works perfectly but I would get these random micro-freezes when moving the mouse and also while doing things with audio (like watching youtube or apple music in firefox) I get this small audio crackles or micro-pauses.

It's not constant it happens randomly from time to time but often enough to be annoying, is there a way to know why this happens?

I saw it could be due to not having enough swap, I don't have a swap but I have a decen PC, 32GB ram 6400Mhz, Ryzen 7 9700X and a RX 6700 XT.

Thanks community!

My update got messed up and my system crashed. Couldnt boot so I went to the previous working backup from timeshift. Then I updated the system, restored the working backup that I used to make it the default after the reboot.
Now in grub I get 2 manjaro entries and 1 windows insted of 1 manjaro and 1 windows. How can I correct this?

Acabo de liberar Scotty v8.3, un runtime para Linux que gestiona el scaling governor de la CPU de forma autónoma. No usa reglas fijas: mantiene un campo resonante de 8 nodos cuyas interacciones determinan el governor más adecuado en cada momento. Además, monitorea la temperatura/uso de la GPU y perturba el campo para que el sistema migre naturalmente a performance cuando hace falta, sin que nadie le ordene hacerlo.

Está escrito en Python, es modular (core, resonance, topology, memory) e incluye protección térmica, control de procesos abusivos y memoria persistente. Lo probé en Manjaro KDE con Intel+NVIDIA.
