CachyOS rebased to Linux 7.2-rc6 overnight with fresh AMD power management refinements, while translation work on the wiki hits critical mass.

The upstream rebase to 7.2-rc6 landed in CachyOS/linux [1], bringing three targeted updates to the amd-pstate frequency driver: per-core EPP boost logic for recently-busy CPUs, kernel-doc fixes, and MSR write ordering corrections [1]. This rolls directly into linux-cachyos-rc , your next RC build. On the docs front, the German translation effort crossed a major threshold this cycle: the Chrome hardware acceleration guide finally hit 100 percent parity with English [2], and the sched-ext documentation landed as well [3], leaving only structural outliers in the queue. Cachy-Update v4.1.1 shipped [4] with i18n fixes for Dutch and Russian translations, addressing choice capitalization and answer wording [5] [6]. The Jay-Noctalia theme suite bumped to v1.1.0 [7] with KDE config additions and theme radius fixes. CachyOS-Welcome picked up a tweaks package removal and action startup fixes [8] [9]. Across 8 repos, 54 commits and 1 release moved the stack forward.

Action items

→ Test linux-cachyos-rc 7.2-rc6-1 for AMD-pstate behavior on your hardware before production CachyOS/linux-cachyos [plan]
→ Update to Cachy-Update v4.1.1 to get localization corrections CachyOS/cachy-update [plan]
→ Refresh Jay-Noctalia to v1.1.0 if running the theme CachyOS/cachyos-jay-noctalia [monitor]
