Review CachyOS on a ThinkPad hits different
For a very fair price, I had the chance to buy my first ThinkPad to use away from home, when visiting relatives or going on short work trips for example. It’s a 2008 T400 model, I added 8 GB of RAM (it uses DDR3, which was a pleasant surprise) and a 256 GB SSD. It came with Windows 7 installed, and I tested a few different distributions including Arch Linux itself but for someone like me who enjoyed Windows 10, CachyOS is the best option. in fact, it’s even better to be honest. I’ll likely buy another ThinkPad in the future, but as a first experience, I’m really enjoying it and it runs perfectly fast

Question Is the LTS Kernel a fine choice?
I want to install Cachy on my work laptop and was thinking to use the LTS Kernel to avoid the minor instabilities that the main kernel sometimes has. But is there something like compatibility issues with newest packages like KDE or something like that?
Anyone here using the LTS kernel in general? I appreciate high performance but I mostly do regular office stuff and some system/platform engineer work. Laptop is new with Intel CPU and integrated graphics.

Question Thinking of moving from Mint to Cachy. Any tips?
I've been on Linux Mint for the past 10 months or so. A bit of tinkering but otherwise an easy and pleasant ride.
Lately, though, I encountered some annoying bugs, and I started evaluating moving to Cachy. Do you guys have any tips? For desktop environment, I guess KDE Plasma is the most common choice?

Desktop So I just installed and setup CachyOS + Hyprland coming from Windows Game Dev background....
Yeah so just as the title says, and I don't want to love it. But I'm, loving it.
So as I said I do Game Development primarily on Windows in Godot, Unity, and Unreal. But recently, I though I needed a break from Windows. And given the OS was already deteriorating from 3+ years of projects and work. I thought I'd just see what was I was missing and download Arch Linux.
This post is just to get feedback from the community on if I made a good choice (posting this in a CachyOS subreddit probably would sway towards good ). But also I came to ask a few questions on software and programs I should get to make Hyprland / Waybar look good, and on what I can / can't download on linux ( like adobe software )

Help [Solved] Steam detects my Steam Controller, but games don't
If Steam detects your controller and Steam Input is enabled, but games ignore it, another udev rule (like dotool) might be breaking /dev/uinput permissions.
Check /dev/uinput permissions
Steam reads your physical controller via /dev/hidraw*, but Steam Input needs read+write (rw-) access to /dev/uinput to create the virtual gamepad for games. Check it with:
getfacl /dev/uinput
If you see #effective:-w- next to your user (mask::-w-), you only have write access, not read+write, so Steam fails with:
Couldn't initialize virtual gamepad: Couldn't open /dev/uinput for writing
Find other udev rules
See which rules touch uinput:
grep -rn "uinput" /etc/udev/rules.d/ /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/ 2>/dev/null
In my case, dotool (installed as an optional dependency for the Smile emoji picker) added /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/80-dotool.rules with MODE="0620". Because 80- runs after Steam's 60-steam-input.rules, it overwrote the ACL mask and stripped read access.
The Fix
Either remove dotool, or override the rule with MODE="0660" so both work:
echo 'KERNEL=="uinput", SUBSYSTEM=="misc", GROUP="input", MODE="0660", TAG+="uaccess", OPTIONS+="static_node=uinput"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/80-dotool.rules
sudo udevadm control --reload-rules && sudo udevadm trigger --settle /sys/devices/virtual/misc/uinput
Run getfacl /dev/uinput again to confirm mask::rw- is restored, then restart your game!
I was loosing my mind and just wanted to post this so it appears on Google in case anyone has the same problem

Question I’m thinking about switching to CachyOS.
Hello. I’ve never used Linux, but I’m becoming increasingly tempted to try it because Windows keeps throwing random errors at me—most likely due to my aging processor. My setup includes an i5-6600K, a GTX 1080, and 16 GB of RAM; will I run into any issues with CachyOS? I ask because I’ve heard that NVIDIA hardware can be problematic on Linux, and, well, my CPU only has 4 cores. Also, is there a truly noticeable improvement when switching from Windows to Linux? For context, I primarily use this computer for gaming.
r/cachyos • u/Xirithas • 18h ago
SOLVED I rolled back a snapshot just now. Can no longer boot into Cachy. Nothing works from this page it only triggers that same message again.

Bug Report Mesa update in cachyos repository still in version 26.2.4
My CPU is v4 capable and I don't understand why there is no mesa in cachyos-v4 repository (and there is in cachyos-v3 ??), so my mesa driver is updating from cachyos repository, but the version there is stucked at 26.2.4 while all other repos has already 26.2.5. In Arch extra repo there is already 26.2.5 so why it doesn't update from there? Can anyone explain how does it work?

Question I woke up and my OS is doing a weird thing.
My screen is OS as if it's bigger than my visual OS. As I move my mouse, it move the screen around as if extending my OS is bigger than my visual screen. When I have my mouse at the middle of the screen, I can't seen any sides. As I move my mouse up, right, down, left, it shows everything.
What is this and how do I disable it?

Help Cachy os audio controls problem [KDE]
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
So I’ve installed cachy os on my new acer aspire 16 ai, and the big problems that I am having currently is audio. When I press the mute key on my keyboard, that issue occurs on the video and when I use headphones, media first tries to play out of the speakers for a split second and then plays through the headphones.
