CachyOS kernel moves to 7.3.0-1 as chwd fixes T2 MacBook modules

By RepoJournal · Filed · About CachyOS · Composed from the cited sources · methodology

The 7.3.0-1 kernel package lands with a refreshed BORE patchset alongside it, chwd corrects the module names its T2 MacBook profiles load, and the bugreport tool learns to redact more identifiers.

7.3.0-1 CachyOS/linux-cachyos

by ptr1337

linux-cachyos bumps to 7.3.0-1 with an updated config; the matching BORE patchset was refreshed for 7.3 in both linux-cachyos and kernel-patches, so the scheduler patch and the kernel it applies to move together.

t2: Update module names in the profiles (#275) CachyOS/chwd

by simiscoool-afk

chwd's T2 MacBook profiles were loading modules under names that no longer match, so the PCI profile now points at the correct ones and drops the redundant t2bce_vhci load. T2 owners get the right drivers bound without hand-editing profiles.toml.

cachyos-rate-mirrors: pull in network-online from the service, not the timer CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by treshaun

cachyos-rate-mirrors now pulls Wants=network-online.target from the service rather than the timer, which means NetworkManager-wait-online no longer runs on every boot for a rating job that fires every 10 days. The service keeps its ordering, so rating still waits for the network.

Improved bugreport redaction CachyOS/CachyOS-Settings

by drinkingoutofcups

The bugreport redaction adds matches for SSIDs, IPv6 addresses, MACs, UUIDs, and file:// paths, and stops stripping the hostname when it is the stock cachyos. Reports shared for support no longer carry those identifiers.

php: 8.5.12 CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by ventureoo

Elsewhere: php reached 8.5.12, LenovoLegionLinux 0.1.4, vesktop-bin 1.6.8, iloader 2.4.0, claude-code 2.1.308, and chatgpt-desktop-bin 26.1016.61520, with protonplus picking up its missing appstream dependency and chwd opening a zh-CN translation.
