System apps is not working after upgrading to F41

I just updated the system and I can’t open gnome apps. I can’t access files or the app store even settings. (I can access files through other apps like Softmarker text )

Update: I change to Xorg and it’s working normally. I think it’s a Wayland problem.

I have the same issue, I can’t even use the terminal.

Do you have an Nvidia card and just installed the proprietary drivers? I’ve just run into this issue.

Yes, I have Nvidia drivers but I didn’t need to reinstall. The update was smooth. Should I reinstall?

If the Nvidia drivers are the problem then I think the only thing that matters is that they are installed, one way or another.

Yes I have install the proprietary drivers for Nvidia

There has been for some time issues with the nvidia drivers not being properly rebuilt when doing a system-upgrade because the automatic reboot after the upgrade completes occurs too soon for some systems.

The fix has often been sudo akmods --rebuild --force then another reboot after that completes.

You can see the problem noted in Third-party modules (e.g. Nvidia) are not rebuilt during system upgrade

I would like to try but i can’t even open the terminal

I just did this and nothing changed. But thanks for your answer!

Try to change the section to Xorg. It’s works for me

Same problem , try xorg

Didn’t help

Could you please try to run an app from a terminal and see what errors you get?

Write me please name of system app that i need to write in console

Try:

gnome-control-center
alexbespik@fedora:~$ gnome-control-center
MESA-INTEL: warning: ../src/intel/vulkan/anv_formats.c:763: FINISHME: support YUV colorspace with DRM format modifiers
MESA-INTEL: warning: ../src/intel/vulkan/anv_formats.c:794: FINISHME: support more multi-planar formats with DRM modifiers
alexbespik@fedora:~$

That doesn’t look like bad. Did the app open?

Can you also look at your logs to see what you get? Try looking at the end of this:

journalctl -b

No it didn’t

That’s the start of the log. If you keep going down, you’ll get to the bottom—that’s where the latest bits will be. So, I’d check the logs, then try running gnome-control-center in a terminal and then check the logs again to see if any errors popped up as a result
