The problem with the desktop after the update #35

Closed Vyacheslav-S closed 7 months ago

Vyacheslav-S commented 7 months ago

Hi!
Yesterday, several packages from the repository 7Ji repo were updated and there was a problem with the start of gnome-session. dmesg after booting the system - https://pastebin.com/07TiUCkL Now I can only log in to the console tty2 ( ctrl + alt + f2 ). I deleted mesa-panfork-git and installed the regular mesa package. After the reboot, I can now log in normally. But now there is no GPU/ 3D Acceleration. Any help you can give me, please.

The updated mali-valhall-g610-firmware package was proven to be troublesome and has been reverted in https://github.com/7Ji-PKGBUILDs/mali-valhall-g610-firmware/commit/7edcc2b77084bd4c950399abcefa19dd3f71fbf5 . Could you try to install the newly released, reverted package?

Yesterday I updated the system and the version of the mali-valhall-g610-firmware package became g21p0. After a few hours, I rebooted the system and the desktop became unavailable. Then I logged into the tty2 console and checked for updates. A message appeared that the system has a newer package mali-valhall-g610-firmware with version g21p0, and the repository version is g18p0. OK, I've downgraded the version to g18p0. But after the reboot, I was unable to log in to the desktop. The dmesg errors were the same. Then I replaced mesa-panfork-git with a regular mesa package in the console. I rebooted the system and the desktop appeared, but there is no acceleration.

Today I restored the system from a saved working image of Clonezilla, which I did a month ago. Everything worked fine. Next, I updated all the packages again. And again, the desktop is unavailable and the same errors in dmesg. Maybe the problem is in another package?

That package was not reverted correctly: https://github.com/7Ji-PKGBUILDs/mali-valhall-g610-firmware/commit/7edcc2b77084bd4c950399abcefa19dd3f71fbf5#commitcomment-141125662

The correctly reverted firmware should be released after a few hours
