@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

@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.netthanks, I had seen that mentioned in one of the nixpkgs issues I was reading through but can't find it anymore. Definitely possible since I'm using nixpkgs-wayland15:07:19
@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.net Is there an easy way to avoid mismatched mesa versions? I am using flakes and set nixpkgs-wayland.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixos-unstable"; if that's relevant. For now, I'm going to try nixpkgs sway and see if that helps 15:08:24
@colemickens:matrix.orgcolemickens 🏳️‍🌈 Have you rebooted recently? I'm using sway unstable and gaming on it. 15:13:24
@genevieve:envs.net@genevieve:envs.netYes I have, since I was testing out a few different kernels when trying to narrow it down15:13:49

It looks like it's

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

which is currently broken
