System update reconfigured Qtile

Issues & Assistance Qtile
1

Just updated my system, and after rebooting whenever I login I get the Qtile bar at the bottom of the screen (was at the top), but what looks like the login manager doesn’t go away until I use to spawn a program. My default Garuda wallpaper doesn’t show up, and the login won’t disappear until I spawn a terminal. While I can see the workspaces numbered, they aren’t sorted by the Greek letters (it’s all Arabic numerals as usual) any longer. As a result, I can’t click on the Garuda logo on the bar to launch jgmenu either. I did install litecli-git from the AUR after doing the system update (and before rebooting). I don’t THINK that should’ve caused this, but just including it for full disclosure. I can boot into an old snapshot, and everything works like normal. I’m just trying to figure out what/how everything got messed up. There was a snapshot mentioning some things about adwaita (not sure why since I’m not running Gnome), but I did not explicitly upgrade that and build a snapshot. So that was must’ve been done by the system upgrade.

Hi, I am having the exact same issue. Black background, bar at bottom that says “default config” and some numbers for desktops. I don’t have the login window. Still scratching my head on how to fix. I’m sticking to rolling back the snapshot, but I have a lot of packages on the update and don’t know how to narrow down what the cause is.

Maybe @RohitSingh can help?

Hello,

I was away for 2 weeks on vacation and had hoped that it might be an upstream issue. However, when updating, I continue to find the same error. When I log in the screen is black and has a bar on the bottom with the workspaces, “default-config”, " press to spawn" (this does nothing and I cannot figure out how to spawn terminal), and a shutdown button which logs me out.

Has anyone found a solution or has a recommendation? I am going to roll back and post my system info shortly. There weren’t any errors when I ran garuda-update

UPDATE: tried following the advice here and now rolling back doesnt even help. Qtile is broken after the last update - #2 by Hrle

Still haven’t figured out what’s going on. I have run the following:

qtile check

Your config is valid python but has type checking errors. This may result in unexpected behaviour.

Here is a section from my logs in ~/.local/share/qtile. This logged right after I updated and was experiencing issues:

It looks like there’s something going on with the python file calls and the qtile config, but unfortunately I don’t understand the system well enough to fix it.

I encountered this after updating my crusty Qtile setup and noticed the discrepancy in ~/.local/share/qtile/qtile.log.
Fixed it by changing
from libqtile.command import lazy
to
from libqtile.lazy import lazy
in ~/.config/qtile/config.py.

It seems at some point, Qtile devs changed how to import lazy objects.
Not too sure what libqtile.command does now but removing it hasn’t had any adverse effect on my system.

Hope this fixes it for you all, and sorry for the late(ish) response :slight_smile:
