@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgPerhaps WINE might be doing some device selection thing where they try to not use iGPUs if a dGPU is present05:54:54
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgI've heard of some cases where the opposite was the case05:55:13
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgSo that may be a workaround for that05:55:24
@ersei:ersei.neterseiseems like vkcube doesn't want to run either without that variable set too05:57:38
@ersei:ersei.neterseiactually it launches, but with a 20 second delay05:58:22
@ersei:ersei.neterseiseems like vkcube is blocking on opening a bunch of files in /sys/bus/pci/devices/*/config repeatedly06:01:52
@ersei:ersei.neterseithat doesn't explain the failure of proton, however, since the process seems to just stop06:03:36
@ersei:ersei.neterseihm, seems like I was mistaken and the process does not stop (after disabling the steam overlay)06:07:04
@ersei:ersei.neterseiit takes a solid minute to launch (as opposed to near instant with the VK_ICD_FILENAMES set or with the nvidia gpu on)06:07:29
@ersei:ersei.neterseiseems like this is either a hardware or a nixos issue06:07:41

@ersei:ersei.neterseiAlright, it's an issue with power management. The PCIe bridge autosuspends after a few seconds, and takes a few hundred ms to come back online. However, if you disable the autosuspend, it chews through the battery like no tomorrow. I've bumped up the autosuspend time by a few seconds, which should decrease the time it takes to scan for vulkan devices, but it's not a great solution (as it still decreases battery life)02:11:35

@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.net does anyone here know of a fix for certain applications using software/CPU rendering? for example, runelite always only detects llvmpipe as my GPU, and glxinfo returns OpenGL renderer string: llvmpipe (LLVM 16.0.6, 256 bits) 00:57:18
@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.net

I don't have anything related to amd in my nixos config, just

  hardware.opengl.extraPackages = with pkgs; [
    rocmPackages.rocm-runtime
    rocmPackages.clr
    rocmPackages.clr.icd
  ];

00:59:29
@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.netand I'm on mesa 23.3.3 (latest unstable)00:59:37
@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.net in general things have been kind of wonky for months - I still have to use steam -disable-cef-gpu, vkcube fails with DRI3 not available. this is definitely new and worse, though: I typically test with minetest since it's quick and easy, and that's also extremely slow and using CPU rendering, even though it used to be working fine 01:01:22
@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.net oh, and I do have hardware.opengl.enable = true; 01:12:16
@k900:0upti.meK900My guess would be mismatched Mesa versions in the closure somewhere06:49:34
