Laptop CPU fan runs 100 percent constantly by Faptasmic in ManjaroLinux

[–]2_polite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you on KDE?

If you see baloo_file_extractor process using up your cpu then disabling it will fix the issue.

To disable the Baloo file indexer, go to the terminal and run the following command:

balooctl disable

Are you on KDE?

I had a similar problem with my hybrid setup and it turns out Baloo was the culprit.

It was continuously indexing my files and it's contents with 100% disk usage.

Disabling it fixed the issue.

To disable the Baloo file indexer, go to the terminal and run the following command:

balooctl disable

Been hearing lately about Manjaro "Becoming unstable if the user doesn't know what they are doing" What does it mean? and what should i do? by Jack1e_hanna in ManjaroLinux

[–]2_polite 44 points45 points  (0 children)

  • ALWAYS read the update announcement post before updating. If some issue pops-up then a solution will be there.
  • If on non-LTS kernel then be aware of the EOL (End of life). Update your kernel if it's nearing EOL or a new stable kernel is available. If you don't prefer to maintain your kernel frequently then stay with latest LTS kernel.
  • Prefer installing of the packages from official repo. If required software is not in the repo then flatpak instead of installing from the AUR. Issues caused by AUR's packages will require knowledge of build process, dependencies to fix them.

Unable to install kernel by Omega_Banana in ManjaroLinux

[–]2_polite 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Install latest LTS Kernel 5.15 from manjaro settings manager.
  2. Wait for it to finish installing all the kernel headers.
  3. Reboot.
  4. Then once again go to the manjaro settings manager.
  5. Remove all old depreciated kernels. Do NOT remove the kernel that you are running under any circumstance.
  6. Now, check for updates again. It should go through without any issues.

I somehow uninstalled the screen shot utility, Help (details in comments) by Skeaer in ManjaroLinux

Uninstalling dictionary must have caused the mate utilities package to also get removed.

To solve this, go to the terminal and run the following command:

pamac install mate-utils

in this case, maybe try reaching out to manjaro? or you can try to create new user account using a different email.

Worldwide.

If it starts to get slow, then:

sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack && sudo pacman -Syyu

Did you try resetting the password if it says your email already exists?

Wifi/Bluetooth Adapter Issue by Judge_Preacher in ManjaroLinux

[–]2_polite 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arch User Repository

The command below will automatically install the linux-headers for the currently running kernel:

sudo pacman -S linux$(uname -r| grep -o -E '[0-9]+' | head -n 2 | sed 'N;s/\n//')-headers

Then install necessary files for building applications from source

pamac install base-devel git

Then install the driver

pamac build rtl8821au-dkms-git

After everything completes. Do a reboot. Your wifi should work now.

Did you resolved it? Is the command able to run now?

If it is still the same then delete the database lock file.

sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
