After updating a Rock64 Ver. 2 board running Manjaro/Plasma, and running update, and then the obligatory reboot, the HDMI output was/is broken. The original system is as follows:
Operating System: Manjaro-ARM
KDE Plasma Version: 5.24.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.92.0
Qt Version: 5.15.3
Kernel Version: 5.17.1-4-MANJARO-ARM (64-bit)
Graphics Platform: X11
Processors: 4 × ARM Cortex-A53
Memory: 3.9 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mali450
I've downloaded the version labeled "Manjaro-ARM-gnome-rock64-22.06.img" and it creates the same issue. When I return to the older version HDMI is fine again. Then the system notifies that updates are required and the cycle begins again
Anyone know of a solution?
As an update I've imaged the Armbian OS and booted from the SD fine. Then manually updated the system. Again it booted up fine. The only problem so far is the HDMI output flickering. It increases when system activity increases. For example; rolling the mouse over desktop icons will cause the screen to flicker. If the system sits idle the video stabilizes but if ANY activity is introduced, the flicker begins again. This makes it difficult to do anything with it. So in essence neither of these OS's are usable as indicated.
