  • A little test with the latest Linux kernel 6.10 + Nvidia 555.52.04 drivers on CachyOS, using KDE + Wayland. Been running this for a week, running development tasks, meetings with Teams and Slack, definitely a big improvement from a few months ago.

    Do you have oled tv 4k 120hz? Are there any issues with such mode? I heard on AMD HDMI output is limited to 4k 60 hz :/

      Yes, I have an LG C2, with an Nvidia GPU. But, If you have an AMD card with HDMI 2.1 and a proper cable rated for 48Gbps you should be able to get 120hz at 4k no problem.

      CachyOS is super stable as long as you don't go wild and start installing stuff from the AUR. They have repos that are fairly updated and you can find most of what you want there, with the added bonus that their Kernel is superfast. Only use the AUR if you don't find the application you want on the available repos. I used it for a year on my main machine, and it broke only because I tinkered with it in my studio.

      as @sharkuel said, stable and snappy out of the box, definitely a daily driver. Main things you may find bugs with is using Wayland with apps that are not supported, most which would happen if you decide to install from AUR or Arch repos without verifying Wayland compatibility. After you install CachyOS you will be greeted with a menu called CachyOS Hello which will have an option for Apps/Tweaks and Install Apps which makes it easy for beginners to get started. The App/Tweaks section will have an option called Install Gaming Packages which will get you up and running with Steam, Lutris, Wine etc.
      I would do a little research on Wayland and Xorg, and also gaming support for Steam on Linux.
      In the more advanced side, by default CachyOS has switched to Btrfs filesystem which uses LVM volumes, and has an option for snapper which creates snapshots for restore points. So if you mess something up, you can revert. That will require a bit of reseach.
      Ultimately, if you keep it simple and select defaults during install, you should not have any issues, I would say boot from USB see if you like it or dual-boot to test it on a separate drive given that is possible on your laptop.

      cachyOS is a pearl in the sea of ​​hypocrisy that is the non-Arch world.
      That's enough, but I can no longer remain silent, I say very naturally, like the waters that run furiously and wash away everything, the words emerge, and that's it:
      One thing I noticed after I migrated is precisely the presence
      massive and abundant information about the stability of Linux distros. I always
      I thought this was absurd, not on the part of the person asking,
      but on the part of those who make the system. Stability for a system
      it is part of his natural purpose to be what he is and proposes to
      to be. Just like a bird, everyone will be surprised if I ask:
      Does this bird fly? But if I ask this about a Linux distro: "is it
      stable?" everyone thinks it's natural. There's the magic of the vagabond
      GNU and his cronies. Today I see clearly what they were:
      envious and incapable opportunists.
      Toward Linus was generous to humanity so it is not his
      I'm not talking about the original programming lines he created.
      Starting from this, I easily visualized the hypocrisy and banditry
      Of them, they are bandits and are at the service of global communism. Not that
      I don't care about that fact, but it's false virtue signaling that
      It has always made me furious in my more than 30 years of experience.
      The founder of GNU actively participated in a short period
      providing advice to the government of my country Brazil, just look for
      photos of Lula with these bums.
      This happened in the criminal's first term
      convicted with clear evidence and current president of my country.
      Connecting the dots clearly arrives at the vision that RedHat, Debian and
      OpenSuse are a consortium more pernicious than any
      technology company, just look at the shitty products that
      decades have done under the auspices of simply cursing the
      Microsoft is one, just one company. While GNU is a cloud
      No face.
      If it weren't for the Arch universe, and more affectionately on my part, the
      cachyOS, we would be more lost than ever.
      Arch is the spirit, the rest are dense, amorphous shadows.🐇🖥

      A customized KDE, dont know which theme it is but seems very normal to me, i am on debian, and i necessitate cuda drivers, this will only be possible on the next drivers release batch from nvidia, cause the default cuda toolkit is still 555.42.06, need xwayland 24.1 and kde 6 for finally having wayland support here, just on 2025.
