CachyOS Just Got Cosmic: August 2024 Release
Hey there, Linux lovers! CachyOS has dropped a new update, and it's out of this world! Their August 2024 release is packed with goodies, but the real star of the show is the integration of System76's Cosmic Alpha desktop environment. Let's break down what makes this release so cosmically awesome.
Cosmic Alpha is the new kid on the block, and it's already making waves. Built with Rust, it's super stable and smooth. The design is clean, and it's got a ton of features to play with, especially when it comes to tiling windows and customising your setup. Best part? You can install it right from the CachyOS installer, no fuss.
But wait, there's more! This update is packed with other cool stuff:
Nvidia Boost: The new Nvidia 560 Beta driver is here, and it's working its magic with the open GPU kernel modules. Expect better performance and less hassle for Nvidia users.
Hardware Heaven: CachyOS has improved its hardware detection skills, especially for those tricky mobile GPUs.
Kernel Control: The Kernel Manager now lets you tweak things even more, with support for custom flags and Nvidia open GPU modules.
Secure Boot Simplified: Setting up Secure Boot is now a breeze with a new script.
Faster Instals: CachyOS now uses an Arch Linux mirror and CDN77 to speed up downloads.
Gaming on the Go: The ROG Ally X handheld is now supported in the CachyOS Handheld Edition.
Staying Fresh: Under the hood, you'll find the latest Linux kernel and KDE Plasma for a super smooth experience.
Want to give Cosmic Alpha a spin on your existing CachyOS setup? It's easy! Just open your terminal and type:
Bash |
And voila! You're ready to explore the Cosmic universe.
The August 2024 CachyOS release is a game-changer. With Cosmic Alpha and all the other improvements, it's a must-try for any Linux enthusiast. So, what are you waiting for? Dive in and experience the cosmic awesomeness!
