I recently downloaded Manjaro Deepin Stable 18.0.2 ISO, made sure that the SHA1 provided on the download page is the same as the one generated from the ISO. I used Rufus on Windows to generate the SHA1 hash and the hashes were the same. After writing the ISO to USB by using Rufus with DD mode because the Isohybrid mode causes it to start grub rescue. After booting the Manjaro live system on UEFI mode with non-free drivers and starting the Manjaro installer, it states that I am installing Manjaro 18.0.1 instead of 18.0.2 which is part of the name of the downloaded ISO file. When reaching the Partitioning page, only Manual Partitioning option is available. The Erase disk, replace a partition and install alongside options were not listed. I created the partitions and let the installation finish and restarted the PC. Below is a screenshot taken from a youtube recording of Manjaro Deepin 18.0.2 that illustrates the manual partitioning as the only partitioning option.
After the reboot ,the deepin desktop version is 15.8. When I set the Display Scaling to 1.25 since my laptop has a high dpi 15.6 inch screen with a screen resolution of 1920X1080, the mouse cursor becomes bigger but becomes small when using applications but on the desktop and on the taskbar in both efficient and fashion mode the cursor size is the same. When I undo the display scaling and after updating the system which updates the deepin desktop to version 15.10.1, the cursor size becomes smaller and when I try to shut down or reboot both graphically and on the deepin terminal, nothing happens but on the terminal it states Failed to talk to init daemon after typing sudo reboot or sudo shutdown. It can only shutdown and reboot if I add the -f to the commands stated to force reboot or shutdown without talking to init daemon. After forcing the shut down or reboot, the PC can shut down or reboot normally and sets the display scaling automatically to 1.25 for both the desktop environment, some applications and the login screen but the cursor is not scaled. But before forcing the shutdown/reboot, logging out and logging back in, the desktop lags extremely as it automatically sets the display scaling value to 1.25 to the desktop and the login screen too but the cursor also is not scaled. Below is a screenshot of my screen with a small mouse cursor after the software update, force reboot and automatic display scaling, and it also displays the EFI partition that I created using fat32 file system as recommended but as a USB device
NVIDIA X server settings wont open. I have read this forum about this issue but after reading the suggested link to configure the nvidia bumblebee. The page warns ' These instructions are outdated. Until they are reviewed for validity, please do not follow them blindly. Especially consider that there are also legacy nvidia drivers for older cards, like nvidia390xx and nvidia340xx. If you are not sure, please look for a tutorial or ask for assistance at the forum. Are there updated commands because according to the linked forum the commands don't work as expected.

After logging off the PC at least 4 times, no audio produced until a reboot. After the system update the sounds sounds sometimes are not produced when they are supposed to sound and the login sound is no longer produced except when I wake up my PC after sleep, after the system update that also updates the deepin desktop environment. After waking the PC from sleep, it always asks for the Wi-Fi password of a Wi-Fi network that I previously connected especially if I let the PC sleep for over 30 minutes. In the live system, it refuses to connect to Wi-Fi even if the correct password has been typed and it says that it could not connect, wrong password. The live system can only connect to Wi-Fi if I press the WPS button on the Wi-Fi booster which I usually use to connect to Wi-Fi. Both the live system and the installed system cannot connect to the internet by using a Huawei E3531 USB modem. In other distros like Ubuntu and Fedora, it identifies the device as 'Wired connection 2' and I have to type the IPv4 address to connect to the internet using the device.
