@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org The easy solution is to just delete your entire steam installation and run it again. 14:09:38
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org the hard solution is to analyse the dump file it provided and figure out what’s wrong.  14:10:01

do you mean to rebuild switch after removing steam from my configuration.nix and then add it again?

No, I mean deleting everything in $HOME/.local/share/Steam
14:15:06
@thegreenguy:beeper.comthegreenguythat would delete my games and game data, right?14:15:50
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org Try deleting everything except the steamapps and userdata folders. It should force Steam to redownload everything while keeping your games and save data. 14:16:56
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org Also, unless you play very specific games with custom engines like Control or Frostpunk, userdata is probably safe to delete, since most games don’t use it at all. 14:18:45
@thegreenguy:beeper.comthegreenguyI'll try without both14:19:07
@thegreenguy:beeper.comthegreenguy(everything except both)14:19:16
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org Oh, and delete the files inside $HOME/.steam as well. 14:20:41
@sigmasquadron:matrix.org@sigmasquadron:matrix.org * Oh, and delete $HOME/.steam/registry.vdf as well. 14:21:33
@thegreenguy:beeper.comthegreenguyit's downloading now14:23:06
@thegreenguy:beeper.comthegreenguyThanks, it seems to have worked.14:33:31

but unfortunately, i can't get it to do 240Hz at 7680x2160 over DP 2.1, swaymsg -t get_outputs shows a max of 60Hz at that resolution

@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️someone else already reported this19:05:21
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️supposedly this will be fixed in linux 6.8, ouch19:07:11

@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️lol19:14:52
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️ changed their display name from Charles ⚡️ (steam use notify-send when) to Charles ⚡️ (drm/amd#2900 when).19:15:18
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️there we go19:15:22
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️oof https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/drm/amd/-/issues/296919:20:16
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️ changed their display name from Charles ⚡️ (drm/amd#2900 when) to Charles ⚡️ (drm/amd#{2900,2969} when).19:20:41
@charles:computer.surgeryCharles ⚡️hmm, i notice that when running e.g. ghostrunner 2 on this display while i have the scale factor set to 1.25, the game thinks the maximum resolution is the smaller scaled values rather than the native values. i assume this impacts the actual fidelity of the final image?20:47:05

@xx_doomer_xx:matrix.orgsimple-coder K900 (drm/amd#1417 when): In the boot menu I can now choose between nixos and windows, thanks for the help. 07:40:54
@xx_doomer_xx:matrix.orgsimple-coderalso is there a way to do automatic garbage collection and automatic deletion of older nixos generations? a bunch pop up in boot menu which can be very annoying. 07:43:10

Yes, there's a NixOS option for that
