I recently updated my system with Pacman and am getting a could not start kdeinit5 error message.

After some Googling. It seems I simply need to update Pacman.

However, as I am on Wifi and have no means of connecting via Ethernet. I need to connect to my WPA2-PSK protected network before Pacman will function.

I'm a new Manjaro user. How can I connect to my network?

  • Read arch page about netctl it is very clear. Also choose which method to use - just systemd, netctl or nmcli for network manager. All described well in arch wiki. – r0berts Apr 03 '17 at 21:22

Create a wpa_supplicant.conf file;

wpa_passphrase Your_SSID Your_Password > /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
sed -i '1 i\ctrl_interface=/run/wpa_supplicant' /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf
sed -i '2 i\update_config=1' /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Change Your_SSID and Your_Password with yours .

Sart the wpa_supplicant:

wpa_supplicant -B -i <interface> -c /etc/wpa_supplicant/wpa_supplicant.conf

Replace <interface> with yours.

Get an IP through dhcp:

dhclient <interface>
