We just posted our Recap of 2025 in our blog. Check it out!
Hey all,
We are going to push today a emergency fixup release out. There has been an issue on the LTS Kernel identified being compiled with AVX2, which results that CPUs not supporting AVX2 can not boot.
The release should be available latest at 17:00 CET.
We have just released our August Version! We worked hard on a new dashboard, which provides an overview of packages including sources and more! Check it out at https://packages.cachyos.org
Check out the full changelog:
Our new July release is now available - we have added now a Shell selection, more handheld devices supported and more!

We are really glad to see that and looking forward to the future!

The biggest change is introducing support for the Limine Bootloader, including integrated snapshot support, when BTRFS is used.
We just dropped a new release!
Blackwell is now supported, the kernel is now optimized with Propeller and several fixes and improvements.
Check the full changelog here:
https://cachyos.org/blog/2502-february-release/
After LLVM 19 got now available, we have integrated the Propeller Optimization into the 6.13 kernel. The kernel is preprofiled and optimized - the only thing you need to do is installing it:
sudo pacman -Syu linux-cachyos-rc linux-cachyos-rc-headers
Will be available in 1 hour.
The LLVM 19 rebuild is now in progress at archlinux. There is not much left, and it should arrive in the next week(s) finally into the stable repository.
LLVM 19 will unlock Propeller Optimization for the kernel 🎉
Thanks to @frumble@chaos.social for the invite!
CachyOS is now also on fosstodon :)
