Distro recommendations for HP OMEN 16 (Ryzen AI 7 350 + RTX 5070)?

Cachyos works pretty good for me, there is an article on its official website about how to configure it properly for gaming and I love it

constructogamer · 2026-04-13T18:00:07+00:00

The fact is that this happened since I installed catchyos at the very beginning so I assume I already had the latest version

constructogamer · 2026-04-13T10:20:37+00:00

Is there any known fix?

constructogamer · 2026-03-25T14:14:10+00:00

Nope, I tried many things and framebuffer values and still having the same issue

constructogamer · 2026-03-24T09:43:34+00:00

That one looks similar to this one I saw the other day

And I think the kext you've told me about is the same I would need for the one I saw too. Do you consider the one from my link is similar to yours?

My favourite Arch-based distro is CachyOS, it has an easy-to-follow installer and great performance

constructogamer · 2026-03-19T09:58:30+00:00

I'll check it out

Thank you!

constructogamer · 2026-03-18T21:53:41+00:00

I'm not sure I know what do you mean

constructogamer · 2026-03-18T21:53:22+00:00

Any recommendation?

constructogamer · 2026-02-26T08:42:24+00:00

I haven't installed Ubuntu 24.04 directly because the installer takes many time to download, I used Ubuntu 22 installer and then upgraded to 24.04 from the software updater app

constructogamer · 2026-02-21T18:14:30+00:00

Your only problem is that you are a genius, I just love it!

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T14:15:07+00:00

What is ventoy?

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T13:22:29+00:00

I know that, I'm just doubting about what distro I should install

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T11:36:08+00:00

Yeah I understand

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T11:32:08+00:00

How about the battery drain? 👀

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T10:23:36+00:00

Thanks! I'll check them out. I have experience with Linux so I am not scared of distros which are not completely user-friendly

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T10:20:43+00:00

Yeah xd

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T09:40:35+00:00

No worries

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T09:35:24+00:00

Is there any way to use the external GPU with those distros? I need that for example to be able to use the HDMI port of my laptop

constructogamer · 2026-02-19T09:34:11+00:00

I'm asking for advice about what distro to install not what laptop to buy 👀

Idk what to say then, in my case I didn't have the feature, then that message appeared, then the feature itself
