A short while ago I moved a couple of laptops from Ubuntu to Manjaro. It's all going well, except today the kid came to me and told me: 'Can't open the SDcard from my camera. It's not working.' Don't you like it when all you get is 'it doesn't work'? Usually such a message by itself is not helpful, but in this case that was all he was able to tell me. Checked and indeed, when the card reader is attached, KDE pops up a notification, and the 'mount and open' option does nothing when clicked on the drive.

Upgraded a server, and along the way the Postfix version was also upgraded. Suddenly there is a warning in the logfile: 'warning: btree:/var/lib/postfix/smtp_scache is unavailable. unsupported dictionary type: btree'. Turns out that is easy to fix.

Installed the AUR Spotify client on my new Manjaro Linux system, started the app, tried to login - nothing happens. It is supposed to open a browser window where I enter my credentials, but that does not work.

Switching laptops from Ubuntu to Manjaro Linux. One of the packages which I want to install is the Microsoft True Type Core Fonts. That works different in both distributions.
