Bought an OLED 1TB recently which replaces my LCD 512GB one. I am more than happy, the small changes they made sum up to a tremendously improved experience. I regret nothing, but now I have to get rid of the old one ...

I have an Asus ROG Flow X16 2023 (Nvidia 4070) and the 550.78 beta (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/nvidia-open-beta to be specific) fixed the problems (crashes on every suspend, random crashes during normal use). No more crashes and Hyprland is happy again!

Not to forget the plethora of 2023 laptops with Cirrus chips where sound from speakers did not work.
I am the owner of such a laptop and extremely happy that after 6 months of ownership I finally have proper sounds from the speakers without the need for custom kernel patches (big thanks to the people from https://asus-linux.org/ [External Link] who fiddled long enough with the bare iron to get it to work).
Thanks to the work of many and especially the people from Cirrus Logic, loads of them are now supported: Asus ROG models, Asus Zenbook models, some HP, some Lenovo and probably even more.
The main reason why these brand new laptops did not have sound was missing information about the specific, internal wirings of the sound chips. The windows driver had this information, but it was missing from the BIOS (where it is expected to be in some _DSD tables).
It's a shame the big vendors did not bother to have proper BIOS entries (for the affected models).
This information is now included in the Linux kernel for supported models and it is from an official source, Cirrus Logic.

I'd like to win because I like the game concept and I love native Linux games - but most importantly I like the visuals of the game.
