Omarchy

ProbeLabs65 findings · 95 requirements

A proof layer — requirements, tests and verified fixes — for two of Omarchy's subsystems: the application menu (launcher scripts, QML model, JSONC config, search and selection) and the lock screen (lock scripts, QML, PAM authentication). Scope is deliberately limited to those components of omacom/omarchy; the rest of the distribution is not covered.

LUKS password prompt fails on boot after Plymouth updaterevision 1 · captured 2026-10-04 11:56 UTC via poll

System details

Omarchy 3.8.2, 7.0.10-arch1-1, NVIDIA graphic card

What's wrong?

Hi,
This is my first time reporting a bug, and I'm a complete Linux beginner, so I hope I'm giving you the right information.

I updated my system this morning using sudo pacman -Syu. Following this update, I was unable to log into Omarchy — failing on login screen.

I heavily used Claude AI to debug this, since I don't have much Linux knowledge myself. It turned out to be the Plymouth update that broke my system. Downgrading Plymouth to 24.004.60-14 (from the pacman cache) fixed the issue for me.

Omarchy version: 3.8.1
Plymouth versions involved: 24.004.60-14 → 26.134.222-2
Date of update: July 4, 2026

In Claude's words (I don't fully understand the technical details myself, but I hope it helps):

The Plymouth 24.x → 26.x jump appears to break the LUKS passphrase prompt display/input specifically in quiet splash boot mode on this Limine+UKI+encrypted-Btrfs setup. No initramfs generation errors were observed (limine-mkinitcpio completes successfully both before and after), so the initramfs itself isn't corrupted — the issue is specifically the Plymouth password prompt not functioning correctly at boot time.

Let me know if you need any more information — happy to help however I can.
