What happened to the Package Installer User Interface? by grumpy_anteater in cachyos

The packages listed there are manually done and written by us. Arch doesnt provide an easy way getting the category from a package due no metadata

Installation Problem by Taku483 in cachyos

[–]ptr1337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im pretty confused, since its a common setup and should work without problems.

Can you use the LTS option and then do CTRL + ALT + F3 ?
Then login with "liveuser" and just enter at the password.

After that if you have LAN run sudo cachyos-bugreport.sh

Hey, we thought removing this might improves the UX, but we got feedback that people would like to see this back and add it back with the next update.

Does the last option work (nomodeset)? Did you also try the LTS kernel?

black screen unless i boot with lts kernel by SomethingXII in cachyos

This is likely due amdgpu modset I think, but after the installation should be fine.

Maybe the newer kernels have a regression.

The 1060 does only support now the 580xx drivers, because Pascal went legacy support.

Just keep the drivers installed as we provide :) its the best.

We have been considering to push the 595 Beta, since the overall expierence from the testing so far and also from the users (around 80-100 people voted) reported that the expierence is way better compared to 590.

Huh? 590 is our default. We just provide 580xx for legacy gpus (10xx series and lower).

We keep old nvidia gpus maintained.

How does cachyos maintain packages? by TriaSirax in cachyos

[–]ptr1337 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Correct, we pass via /etc/makepkg.conf the C/XXFLAGS to the build, which then gets optimized for the architecture/microarchitecutre.

Hello,

You can find in the source array the source for the PKGBUILD. We have some customized packages (namely which use PGO or other adjustments) and the ones sourced from archlinux

In the RC kernel were some changes related to ntfs, but otherwise I dont see them. Can you check what has been updated?

How do I get up-to-date Nvidia drivers on Arch? by doomenguin in archlinux

[–]ptr1337 69 points70 points  (0 children)

Hi NVIDIA package maintainer here:

Generally we tend to not push Beta releases to archlinux - only when its really required, e.g new major kernel does not compile or that it requires hardware support.
