Arch Linux system won't connect to the network/internet in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[–] arch_linux_user@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Hey, I was able to kind of recover my computer and the status is kind of wekrd. It only shows 2 lines and when running systemctl start NetworkManager it simply waits for a few seconds and I get kicked out to my login prompt

systemctl status NetworkManager

This was fixed in this PR: https://github.com/dessalines/jerboa/issues/390, it should be available in the next app update

State of Wayland gaming with Nvidia RTX? Is it good, or stick with Xorg? in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.ml

[–] arch_linux_user@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I hope 545 brings GAMMA_LUT support, night light is basically the only thing keeping me away from Wayland at the moment on my desktop. I absolutely love Wayland with my laptop

I can't test anymore since I'll try to get some sleep and I downgraded the kernel and now the computer doesn't boot. So tomorrow when (if) I get it back up, I could try and get that info. But from memory before I broke everything more (I had checked just to be sure), it looked pretty fine to me, no flashing red errors or warnings.

Thanks. I tried that before I saw your comment and I downgraded 2 network related packages (networkmanagwr applet and networkmanager openvpn), but that did not work. I saw the kernel got updated so I downgraded that but now my system doesn't get past the boot screen. I'll try again tomorrow and I'll probably just install vanillaos to still have access to the AUR but on a very stable base and with good defaults. I had tried doing a ping but it just immediately said no host found or something like that. Sorry if I am vague, I don't remember exactly and my computer doesn't start anymore loll

Thanks, do you know what packages names that are not so obvious could be causing this? I downgraded the two Networkmanager entries that appeared but that doesn't seem to help much (network manager applet and networkmanagee-openvpn)

I don't seem to have dhcpcd installed on my system (systemctl status dhcpcd says it is not found). Is this a required package that I managed to live without for a few months by pure luck?

EDIT: forgot to add that the wifi networks all appear fine and connect (network name appears in the settings and connects successfully, just no network access no matter the interface)

EDIT 2: I did not really feel like troubleshooting my computer all day as I had kind of soft-bricked it by downgrading the kernel, and it didn't boot. I felt it was a bit too far gone for me and like I said I didn't want to spend the day fixing it. Anyways I had a separate /home so it was all fine. I installed PopOS as a (not so) temporary solution. Ill probably end up reinstalling Arch or something a bit more up to date soon enough. Thanks everyone for trying to help me!!

Hey there, I'm looking for some help with my Arch system that I updated today.

So a little context here: today, I updated my system with the usual -Syu. However after the update I kept getting pop ups that told me my LAN connection was not working or something ( I use gnome). Wifi was still working.

Now, I since rebooted in hopes the popups would go away (in a sense, they did...), I do not have any access to the internet, I tried everything I can think of (wifi only, wired only, usb tethering with my phone) but nothing works. I still get the wired icon in gnome even though the cable is unplugged.

I am having trouble finding help with the Reddit blackout (convenient timing lol) and it is pretty hard for me to attach logs and such since my computer has no network access at all, I'm relying 100% on my phone...

Any help is appreciated 🙂

FOSS Android Keyboards in c/privacyguides@lemmy.one

[–] arch_linux_user@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

Yeah the swipe and multi-lingual input is the only thing keeping me on GBoard. I would love to not have all my keyboard interractions be recorded but... yeah these features are just too good to pass on

Best weather app? in c/android@lemmy.ml

[–] arch_linux_user@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 year ago

Yeah, DarkSky was shut down officially last march I think, but last year at wwdc they announced weatherkit as a replacement. Though I am not sure if weatherikt is a 100% match or if it is better or worse than darksky. I want to assume its the same or better but its apple so we never know...

Best weather app? in c/android@lemmy.ml

IIRC Weawow has Apple weather as a provider, which is basically a rebranded Dark Sky (check out Apple's weatherkit for more info about this rebrand thing)

[–] arch_linux_user@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I really like Weather Today since it has Apple's weatherkit data, which is basically Dark Sky. It also has a really nice radar view and a per minute rain forecast. There is also Shadow Weather which has this support, but I find the UI to be less appealing.
