Hello to CachyOS!

[CreatorJewel]

Hello!! I posted this in Reddit but I’ll also like to post it here! After finally building my first ever PC. I installed Cachyos and it feels amazing! It’s a lot snappier and quick to respond unlike Windows 11 I’m still making small steps of installing things I want/need, and ricing it soon-ish enough while setting up rmpc for local music player [if I fail, Ill use strawberry instead lol]. I’m dual-booting between windows 11 and Cachyos because of things not fully compatible yet in linux, and I’ll be taking my time getting comfortable at mostly using Cachyos but Im so happy to be here!! I can’t wait to rice it and do so much! I’m so excited to be here!

Say hello to my child Prismatic [my PC]. My first ever build!!

[The-ai-guy]

[CreatorJewel]

[The-ai-guy]

@The-ai-guy

Huh?

Maybe you mean gummiboot?

Which is actually systemd-boot now so the question is still confusing/confused.

Oh I see they have changed their name to “the-ai-guy” .. now it makes more sense.

Welcome @CreatorJewel.

And Congrats on the build.

@The-ai-guy

why did you chosed limine

that is AI… limine is selected by default in the installer…

@The-ai-guy

more stable bootlader like systemd

which doesn’t have btrfs snapshots out of the box in cachyos?

@CreatorJewel

and ricing it soon-ish

start maybe with the cachy-update logo so its fits the other icons

Cachy-Update Icon

yes cachy-update --gen-config cachy-update --edit-config change this line: #TrayIconStyle=blue to TrayIconStyle=light and Save restart Cachy Update Systray Applet or PC. [grafik]

[cscs]

And if you want some new/different icons such as for the Application Launcher some are around like;

CachyOS symbolic vector logo

This icon is modified from the existing colored SVG logo. Not only monochrome but also including SVG style/class code so that the icon color ‘flips’ according to color scheme. This means the icon is white with dark color schemes and black with light ones (only tested on KDE Plasma). Will probably end up including in larger icon themes but wanted to share the standalone icon here for any other uses.

What’s wrong with Limine? I went for it since it was recommended the most, and I like it. It’s quite simple to use!

[CreatorJewel]

Thank you! I’m glad to finally be here after my original experiment on my previous laptop!

[CreatorJewel]

Just bought an Acer Swift Go16 AI, and installed CachyOS. I’ve been running Garuda, and wanted to see what the fuss is all about. So far, I like it fine.
