Hello community, first of all: “Happy 2026!” We hope you all had a good start into the new year. We wish you all the best. Here we have another set of package updates. This also marks the release of Manjaro 26.0, code-named ‘Anh-Linh’. This time our focus is on Plasma 6.5 and GNOME 49. Both will use Wayland by default, which may change things for older systems out there. Some who still need X11 support may consider our XFCE build. Expect the new ISOs for installation of Manjaro soon to be published.
Important Note: Users of Plasma and GNOME may lose their X11 session support. Therefore read our Known issues and solutions section before restarting your systems!
Important Note: Users of Pascal, Maxwell, or older cards will fail to load the NVIDIA driver when 580xx series got used since 590xx doesn’t support the older hardware anymore. Only Turing series and newer. Therefore read our Known issues and solutions section before restarting your systems!
