It’s the year of Linux on my desktop.

Windows is getting worse, while gaming on Linux is getting better. I’m gonna move my desktop to CachyOS. Wish me luck.

    No, actually I am not. 2 year old AMD cards are not the latest.

    I tried to install PopOS for them first, however the LiveISO does not boot with a 9060 XT, because the PopOS kernel is quite old. If it was compatible with the latest AMD GPUs, they’d be running PopOS right now instead of CachyOS.

    Are you on the 24.04 Beta version of PopOS?

      You are wrong about the kernel. I’m not on the beta, I’m on a stable release I installed like 2 years ago and have updated many times since. The kernel is exactly what I just said.

        Dunno what to tell you lol, maybe it is possible to update an already existing install to a newer kernel version, but the LiveISO hangs when booting on a 9060 XT, and “sorry, it is unsupported by the PopOS kernel” was a common/known issue when I searched for the solution. This was only a few weeks ago.
