CachyOS builds an Easy Anti-Cheat stack, kernel variant included

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

The EACv2 effort landed across five repos at once: a new linux-cachyos-eac kernel variant, a signing-key package with an sbctl post-hook, an eac-status summary in CachyOS-Settings, a wiki guide out of draft and into German, and a settings release to carry it.

linux-cachyos-eac: add CachyOS/linux-cachyos

by ptr1337

A new linux-cachyos-eac variant joins the kernel PKGBUILDs, carrying its own config adjustments and PKCS#11 signing work. Anyone on linux-cachyos now has a separate kernel package to pick from rather than a flag on the existing one.

cachyos-eac-signing-key: Add sbctl-post-hook to avoid two signatures CachyOS/CachyOS-PKGBUILDS

by ptr1337

cachyos-eac-signing-key gains an sbctl-post-hook to avoid two signatures. Without the hook, the key setup produced a doubly signed artifact; the post-hook keeps signing to a single pass.

Easy Anti-Cheat: Add guide to setup EACv2 support CachyOS/wiki

by ptr1337

The wiki guide for setting up EACv2 support is out of draft: the notice is removed and review comments addressed, and one follow-up deletes the self-signed systemd-boot by its source path. That fixes a removal step that targeted the entry rather than the file it came from.

Rebase against Arch-Update v4.4.7 CachyOS/cachy-update

by Antiz96

cachy-update rebases onto Arch-Update v4.4.7, which upstream cut as its own release. The Vietnamese translation also picks up CachyOS branding.

CachyOS Linux 7.4-rc2-2 CachyOS/linux

by 1Naim

The cachyos-7.4-rc2-2 build sits on Linux 7.4-rc2 and carries the 7.4/vesa-dsc-bpp branch, touching VESA EDID block parsing so MSO is used only for non-eDP displays. Quietly, the AUR-derived desk moved modprobed-db to 2.52, unciv-bin to 4.22.18, chatgpt-desktop-bin to 26.1103.60933 and fluxer to 2026.1109.42917; the modprobed-db diff was flagged for a sensitive command in added lines.
