CachyOS Handheld Edition Embraces Wayland, Dropping Bcachefs in March 2026 Update

CachyOS March 2026 refresh brings Wayland to CachyOS Handheld Edition (replacing X11), updates the installer with animated previews and JPEG-XL support, switches Gamescope session to a cachyos fork with firmware updates for Steam Deck and Legion Go, replaces SDDM with Plasma Login Manager, and removes Bcachefs from the installer due to kernel module dependencies; the update also adds a Winboat option in the Welcome screen and is available as a new ISO from CachyOS.org.
