[SOLVED] Deepin DE acting extremely buggy after "pacman -Syyu" on 10/8

I did a system update and now deepin is acting extremely buggy, slow, and crashes at times. It's also causing a problem with shutdowns causing it to hang (need to press power button to shutoff). I've already tried installing "downgrade" from the 'archlinuxfr' repository and running it with the "deepin" package and nothing happened. Are there any other ways I can downgrade it to another, more stable, version?

Currently have Deepin 15.4.1 installed.

You should have a pacman cache at /var/cache/pacman/pkg where you can find older versions of packages you installed.  Just use

pacman -U pkgname

to install an older version.  Keep in mind though, this is just a temporary solution, you need to get to the root of the problem.

Sure it's th deepin update? What else got updated? (pacman log)
Is it maybe the intel_iommu=off issue?

Yea, it was the deepin update. Downgraded to the previous version and it worked fine for the rest of the week. Today I checked if there was another update and went ahead and did a "pacman -Syyu." The newest version seems to be working perfectly fine now. Thanks for the help guys.
