Hey hey, I just upgraded my system and upon restart, now running kernel 6.4.11-arch2-1 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC and everything else that was available one/two days ago.

Hi Jeanette, assuming your /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist is checked against /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist.pacnew and up-to-date, I suspect an issue with BRLTTY. I just made a quick test Ctrl+Alt+F2, run nano and didn't notice such an issue using a display. FWIW try another update, before doing further troubleshooting, since • rocketmouse@archlinux ~ $ grep "linux (" /var/log/pacman.log | tail -1; uname -r [2023-08-25T11:46:21+0200] [ALPM] upgraded linux (6.4.11.arch2-1 -> 6.4.12.arch1-1) 6.4.12-arch1-1 Regards, Ralf
