Today’s snapshot 20240618 with Mesa 24.1.1-380.1 unfortunately did not solve the problem.

Remove packman’s repo and add the repo of X11:Xorg.repo

zypper addrepo https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/X11:XOrg/openSUSE_Tumbleweed/X11:XOrg.repo

zypper refresh

zypper in --allow-vendor-change Mesa-24.1.1-1589.1.x86_64

And after reboot , lock Mesa

zypper addlock Mesa*

@JG1956 Thanks for notifying me. I had considered updating it in hopes that the problem would be resolved

“The config ‘root’ does not exist. Likely snapper is not configured.
See ‘man snapper’ for further instructions.”

146

Are there subvolumes listed in /etc/fstab?

Version Mesa-24.1.1-385.1 has just appeared in the emergency update channel of TW/OSS
Linked to Request 1181885: Submit Mesa - openSUSE Build Service which disables LTO so should fix the problem with AMD HW.

Just updated.
I confirm that with Mesa-24.1.1-385.1 everything is back to normal.

I just updated to Mesa-24.1.1-385.1 and although Wayland is working again my task bar and konsole are still not behaving as they used to. Crazy spaces and cursor movement happens in konsole. No longer able to have icons in task bar to start apps as I used to, it keeps insisting on pin to task bar as an option and cannot place where I want. Not all Icons are shown as Oxygen ones now either. Not impressed at all. Surely testing should have seen these issues earlier.

Did you
sudo init 3
before updating?

151

No - where does it suggest that?

This is the cleanest procedure for updating graphics and desktop components.

153

latest update didn’t help, my desktop still looks like this:

I just tried the update and still have the same issue. Thank god for snapshots. Cant believe this is still broken

155

Check the Mesa version. A non-functioning 24.1.1-1699.383 comes via packman.

156

Changing to the new 24.1.1-385 package worked for me (am using x11). I had the older packages locked and in the Yast Software, changed the version from the packman ones and then changed via there. I didn’t do an upgrade, it looks like the packman version numbers will overwrite the fixed versions.

Hi can you explain howe to lock mesa? I have packman enabled. Im now rolled back to 24.0. Once locked can I just do a straightforward update and dup?

158

First do a

sudo zypper dup --from http://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/repo/oss/ --allow-vendor-change

Then unlock all and

sudo zypper refresh
sudo zypper dup

I’ve just got an update, I can confirm that Mesa-24.1.1-385.1 from openSuse works fine, also on wayland

Switching to the new 24.1.1-385 package worked for me (I’m using Wayland). I had the older packages locked and in Yast Software, I removed the lock and updated the Oss version
