@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.orgNow my only showstopper is that I'm unable to launch any xwayland app in mt nvidia card.02:06:34
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.orgAll of them run via the igpu.02:06:44

For what it's worth, I've been running mesa git from Chaotic Nyx for months and haven't had any particular issues. Not saying that it can't can't cause issues though, I just haven't hit much lol
I would like to try it but it breaks nvidia-offload. :/

@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.orgWhere can I track NVK driver progress?02:50:42

Mesa gitlab, I guess

Put it in a specialization 😅 -- also with NVK you won't need nvidia-offload anymore, just good DRI_PRIME like an AMD user would do

One thing, I think I don't recall I mentioned before, for using NVK+GSP, one will not have nvidia kernel module, so the nvidia firmware folder won't get copied to modules closure without some overlaying 👀 (nouveau+GSP uses "nvidia" and not the "nouveau" folder)

I don't know how, if even possible, to test NVK. (Knowing it's unstable and not ready yet).

But that sounds interesting.
20:34:49
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org My only problem is that I don't know what a specialization is. 😅 20:35:08
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgIt's a NixOS feature; read up on it in the manual20:35:31
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org Also, would I get any benefits from pulling latest Mesa if I'm not using a card yet supported by it? 20:35:51

Oh, thanks. I'll look into it. 
20:35:59
@atemu12:matrix.org@atemu12:matrix.orgI would not recommend trying NVK at this point though. It's still very experimental, even for cards that are supported "officially"20:36:08

NVK does not implement a good set of Vulkan yet, you'll see this warning always:

WARNING: NVK is not a conformant Vulkan implementation, testing use only.
Selected GPU 1: GA107, type: DiscreteGpu

And will have to downgrade DXVK to play.

21:41:29
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org Makes sense. 22:44:48
@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org@sr.estegosaurio:matrix.org I'll wait then.  22:44:57

@vengmark2:matrix.orgl0b0Anyone know when the AMD HDR patches are getting to NixOS?06:25:13

Anyone know when the AMD HDR patches are getting to NixOS?
whenever they make it to mainline. Nixpkgs doesn't patch the stock kernel unless absolutely necessary. You can do it for your machine yourself though
06:40:55
@k900:0upti.meK900Also note it's not really "AMD HDR", it's more like "the few specific AMD chips that are similar enough to Steam Deck HDR" currently06:55:56

how similar does that have to be?
07:09:11
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orglike, is that why it didn't work on my 7900 XT when a tried a couple of months ago?07:09:26
@k900:0upti.meK900Not too sure07:09:57
@k900:0upti.meK900But it's only wired up for some DCN revisions07:10:04
