CachyOS Linux 7.2.4-1, faster window rules

By RepoJournal · Filed · About CachyOS

CachyOS Linux rebases to upstream 7.2.4, and the Hyprland config fixes a window rule that never applied to Swash.

CachyOS Linux 7.2.4-1 bases on upstream 7.2.4 and rebases the Apple T2 branch from 7.2.3. The update removes early CPU offlining for T2 systems and adds the t2bce driver stack. This release is available as cachyos-7.2.4-1. [1]

The Hyprland Noctalia config fixes a leftover window rule: Swash kept the old Satty title match after the class was swapped, so the float/min_size rule never applied. The rule now matches Swash's window title, while the class match stays broad for future changes. Separately, generic float windows are no longer centered, which changes where those windows appear on screen. [2][3]

Ananicy rules gains a lint.py script and JSONSchema to validate rules and cgroup definitions. The author calls it "a real pain to maintain such large collection of rules," and while it doesn't yet check that referenced types exist in .types files, it already catches invalid rules files. New rules cover San Andreas Multiplayer and allumeria. The cachyos-ananicy-rules package bumps to 1.1.49. [4][5][6][7]

Package details in the public dashboard now wrap long badge text, applied to the badge component with wrap-anywhere. [8]
