- skirmish 11mo agoRight, I wanted to add that the journalist will be fine if they immediately update all packages but OTOH this is not what Windows users usually do.
- pixelpoet 11mo agoI also recently got my FD, also switching to Linux, also chose CachyOS. Worked great for a day or two but now updates aren't working because of some signing issue or something :| Maybe I should switch to Fedora or Bazzite before getting too setup...
- Sammi 11mo agoHave you tried updating everything using "sudo pacman -Syu" ? I just had to update my CachyOS install last night, as some software I wanted to install was just getting 404 responses from the repos. Turns out they don't keep round old packages? I dunno, but the update command above fixed it.
- skirmish 11mo agoNo, I didn't, after the third freeze and reboot I just thought "why am I wasting my time on this crap?", wiped it and installed regular Arch Linux instead. That one was stable out of the box.
