Updating Ubuntu 24.04 arm64 to Gnome v46

Desktop
1

I have an Armbian release of Ubuntu Plucky for arm64 which uses Ubuntu’s ports repo. It originally came with Gnome v46 which was working with my rockchip64 hardware, after three or four apt-get upgrades I ended up with the display failing to work, using ssh I tracked this down to a reversion to Gnome v44. AFAICS the Ubuntu arm64 ports repo no longer has .debs for Gnome v46 available. If someone could guide me to what is my best cause of action for installing Gnome v46 now please ?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron

Hey, first of all, welcome to our forum!

As Sid said, its better to ask this in Ubuntu forums. Not because its dumb question! Its just that you will have higher chance of receiving help there :slight_smile:

@tragivictoria Thanks for the welcome. You are right its is a Ubuntu versioning issue. I would like to investigate support for rockchip64 rk3588 with ARM Mali-G610 MP4 on Gnome, it seems to be in Gnome v46. And would like to see the code.

Sorry, I don’t know. But you can see the code on gitlab.gnome.org

Okay partially solved, its the Linux rockchip64 kernel version.

6.12.32 is failing, 6.12.22, and 6.12.17 the display is working fine.

Sorry for the noise.
