Omarchy RS 4.5 RC3 is Ready For Testing + Apple Silicon (M1, M2, M3, Neo)
> ⚠️ This is a release candidate, not a final release. Expect bugs, rough edges, and the occasional thing that breaks outright. Run it on a test machine, or make sure you have a working backup (or a snapshot you know how to roll back to) before you upgrade a machine you depend on.
Omarchy 4.5 is the first feature release since Quattro. It speaks 50 languages, gives every monitor its own workspaces, adds floating workspaces with a dock, rebuilds notifications, gathers how the desktop looks into a new Appearance menu, plays theme intros, and ships four new default apps: Hype, Monologue, Signed, and Disktree. Underneath, it installs in about half the time, it's faster from boot to theme switching, and it runs on NVIDIA N1x and Snapdragon X laptops.
Try it on an existing machine with Update > Channel > RC, then Update > Omarchy. Please report anything that breaks on GitHub.

Fixing the VFS5011 fingerprint reader on Omarchy
My laptop has a Validity VFS5011 fingerprint reader and I wanted fingerprint auth on Omarchy. Enrolling worked fine. The verify right after it didn't, and the Omarchy setup script took that as a hard fail and never wrote the PAM config, even though my print was already enrolled. Turns out the reader just wedges after enrollment. A USB reset fixes it.
The symptom
Enrollment goes through, and the verification fails with this:
failed to claim device: GDBus.Error:net.reactivated.Fprint.Error.Internal: Open failed with error: transfer failed
omarchy-setup-security-fingerprint reads that as a failed setup and bails before touching PAM. So you end up with an enrolled print that is not used.
Problem is im the chipset: Validity Sensors VFS 5011, USB id 138a:0017. It's tracked in omarchy#10091.
Why it happens
The VFS5011 gets stuck after enrollment. Reset the USB device and verify results.
Reset the reader
sudo systemctl stop fprintd
sudo usbreset 138a:0017
sleep 2
sudo systemctl start fprintd
Verification
Your print is already there, so test before you redo anything:
fprintd-verify
You want to see verify-match. Enroll again only if verify still fails after a reset.
Step 3: Finish the PAM config
Same config omarchy-setup-security-fingerprint would have written.
For sudo and polkit, add these to /etc/pam.d/sudo and /etc/pam.d/polkit-1. The first line skips fingerprint when the lid is closed, the second enables it:
auth [success=1 default=ignore] pam_exec.so quiet /usr/bin/omarchy-hw-laptop-closed
auth sufficient pam_fprintd.so
For the lock screen, create /etc/pam.d/omarchy-lock-fingerprint:
#%PAM-1.0
auth required pam_fprintd.so
account include system-local-login
Or, if your Omarchy is new enough to retry verify on its own, just rerun the setup after the reset:
omarchy-setup-security-fingerprint
Step 4: Confirm it works
sudo -k
sudo -v
That should ask for your finger. Same for polkit prompts and the lock screen (Super + Ctrl + L).
Notes
- Enrollment is fine. Only the claim right after it fails.
- If you have this same reader, the reset trick should apply to you too, not just on Omarchy.
- Fix was ofc done with agents, as Omarchy is agent native

To be clear I'm accusing the distro to steer people in a certain direction, I'm arguing that it's something that people who already have a certain set of political beliefs will be drawn to.
>That you think it's all about UNIX guru LARP I have to question how many Omarchy users you actually engaged with because I've mostly met humble and friendly folks. YMMV.
I mostly base myself on the tweet wall posted on Omarchy's website, because it features (or featured, back when I looked at it) a bunch of former Mac users patting themselves on the back for being such 1337 h4x0rs for... mainly using a tiling WM, as far as I can tell.
As someone who has been using Linux and tiling WMs for over two decades it's a bit baffling to look at frankly. I guess I'm a bit salty that I missed out on millions of dollars by sharing my config files.
>I've been working a lot on customization and upstreamed some patches and I have no idea what would count as poorly configured.
I obviously haven't surveyed the entire ecosystem but the base scripts shipped with the distro (which I presume are mostly DHH's work) look more like a personal dotfile compendium than something a serious distro would ship. I'm talking about stuff like this: github.com/omacom/omarchy/blob/1e859d37cb7fef6ac6…
That "format-drive" function is particularly entertaining, I think.
Regarding third party code, the small handful of github projects I looked at were the most spaghetti of vibecode, e.g. github.com/ETroll/omarchy-airplay/blob/master/bin…
This may not be representative of the ecosystem at large, admittedly, but given the huge focus on vibecode/agentic stuff in the marketing, I think this is not an unexpected outcome.
Beyond that, using your own, worse package manager instead of leveraging Arch's existing capabilities (but also still using Arch's packages for some things) is just terrible design.
