This is just a little fix release, due issues with Wayland and NVIDIA cards.
Currently there is an issue going on, when fbdev=1 and drm.modeset=1 is used, that the ownership is taken to late and this results into a blackscreen.
NVIDIA did provide a patch for this in the forum, which we have applied to our nvidia module. This does mitigate the issue and NVIDIA users will have good expierence.

Greetings, CachyOS enthusiasts!

This is our fourth release of 2024 and is mainly to provide a xz libary, which does not contain the current known CVE with it.
This is our fourth release of 2024 and is mainly to provide a xz library, which does not contain the current known CVE with it.
We have added the commit "Mitigate past commit of malicious xz actor by ensuring path names are only outputted via safe_fprintf to avoid escape sequences in paths hitting the terminal." in "libarchive"

We have also added a bunch of new features, so it's quite an opportune time to do a release.
Unfortunately, due to issues with calamares and wayland, when changing the keyboard layout in calamares we needed to switch back to x11 only for the ISO.

We now provide a new refind partioning layout (seperate /boot and /boot/efi), which makes it easier to multi boot with windows and other linux distributions.
We now provide a new refind partitioning layout (separate /boot and /boot/efi), which makes it easier to multi boot with windows and other linux distributions.
Plymouth has been added and it is now used by default for all currently available bootloaders, Plymouth provides a themed boot animation instead of scrolling text.
The boot animation will show a spinning circle, the CachyOS Logo and your UEFI Motherboard Vendor splash art.

Bcachefs is currently still in an experimental state but will improve lot with the next major kernel releases. The installer automatically detects which file system is installed and will correctly configure and install the required packages.

The next new feature is an AI SDK Installation. This installation type automatically installs all required packages required to have a local AI Installation.
This was done due to requests from an Local AI Enthusiasts group and will be further enhanced in the future. For now, this install method only works for CUDA and NVIDIA, but we are also working on introducing this for offical ROCm supported cards. ROCm support is planned to be released together with the next release.

ROCm support is planned to be released together with the next release.

Last but not least, we are adding an experimental handheld Edition for CachyOS. The Handheld Edition automatically setups a Steam Deck like experience and installs all required Gaming Tools for it.
We are also proud to announce that this version will use the LAVD Scheduler, which is funded by Valve and improves the Frametime and 1% lows on Handhelds dramatically.
