Hi guys,
I’ve been using garuda-linux on this PC for about 2 years and it was a Dragonized version.
At a certain point I switched to mokka theme following the post with the “how to” and I had NO issues and everything has been going fine.
Yesterday morning, I tried to do a garuda-update -a and, after a reboot hours later, I got stuck at boot after grub with a simple “underscore” on screen.
With Snapper, I went back and tried again using “garuda-update – --ignore pkg”, every time trying to isolate the package that gave the issue. There was also an update to Garuda Rani that was warring, but no issues there.
I found that, if I update garuda-mokka 1.1.3-5 → 1.2.2-5, I get the issue. On garuda-linux’s git I’ve seen that in fact there was an update 3days ago.
I’ve searched with issues similar to this but no luck.
Do you know what could be the issue? Or if I had to do something.
Btw in the output of garuda-update, I see no issue related to garuda-mokka.
