Arch saves many previous packages in .cache and to clean them use pacman -Sc . Just properly test current running system before cleaning it.

Worked for me on Ubuntu. The instructions from amd is only tailored for one distribution. I think the easiest way to use it is trough docker. I don’t want proprietary drivers conflict for my gaming.

I just avoid gtk. And avoided scaling since I don’t buy monitors with to high resolution for my eyes.

A plasma a icon pack works wonders for my eyes. A title bar change if I am feeling like going wild. Dark mode theme pefered.Only ‘ricing’ I always do is a few keybinds to not go insane, and then remove hot corners before I try to move a program between 2 screens. Standard has been pretty good since that single click files feature was changed.

You can echo ‘mem’ > /sys/power/state as root to suspend. Or echo sleep into the file for hibernate.

I use cachyos and aurora, if any Ubuntu user wants the laugh at me be my guest. 😀

On amd gpu+cpu fastboot off. I have it working on 3 pc’s like this. Asus mostly.

Use steam, setup a desktop profile in settings while in desktop. https://docs.bazzite.gg/Handheld_and_HTPC_edition/Handheld_Wiki/ search for desktop controls.

While microsoft has admitted to bugs causing exactly this scenario. I personally have a stabe 6 months with dual-boot. And only updating cachos once a month or every two weeks has been fine. The server and rog ally exclusively runs linux.

I did a few times on bazzite. But it’s now aurora. Haven’t had anything I was missing. Was also exporting a few things from arch in distrobox. Was more of a experiment then a necessity.

I just use the flatpak on arch, can’t be bothered to have a link to a deb or do a system update when discord wants a update.

It is 90% arch, except for the few packages it has in it’s own repository. I have it on two pc’s and I have used arch for years I can not say it’s any different from a stability perspective. I almost never have issues on arch but also I wouldn’t recommend cachyos to anyone who had issues with arch. Couse I definitely had to remove custom packages just to fix dependency issues etc.

I3, awesomewm, qtile or dwm since you’re specifying xorg and window manager. Atleast you can use virtual desktops instead of alt-tabbing then.

Having broken lts-kernel and broken 6.15. At the same time. But the zen kernel saved me. So I guess if it was 3 broken kernels at the same time I would switch distro, haha. Lts was broken amdgpu kernel module, worse then sleep issue for mainline.

Nice, those new display settings looked very good. Waiting until it’s in my repo’s, will be so happy when it comes.

Yes it is that, on gentoo I had set it like that for a while. Before I specified it to be sure. I Thought linus, didn’t want to have this.

Yes, most likely need to compile it yourself. Or the distros would need a v1,v2,v3,v4 version. Also you need to know the feature set of you cpu. Distros will probably compile with the lowest common denominator, since those are compatible largest range of cpu’s. Cachyos does compile it’s packages for v3 optimization, I don’t think that needs avx512. So can definitely see some distros trying something out.

Oh yeah, I use juicessh, but there’s also termius and termux for free.

A phone is often sufficient for googeling, but if you have ssh it’s nice with a secondary computer. Recovered from crashes where no input works so many times.

Try to turn off ‘fast boot’ in bios and test again, should work.
