@atemu12:matrix.org | Native OGL games I assume? | 05:46:56 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Or native Vulkan games aswell? | 05:47:10 |
ersei | both work natively | 05:47:34 |
ersei | * both work fine natively on the igpu | 05:48:28 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Huh. Laptop's aren't my domain but if native works but WINE doesn't, that smells like a WINE bug to me. There shouldn't be anything different about WINE using VK and a native app using VK. | 05:49:17 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Anything interesting in the logs? | 05:49:30 |
ersei | nope. I should test out whether explicitly setting VK_ICD_FILENAMES will do anything | 05:50:06 |
ersei | yep seems like explicitly setting that to the intel file works | 05:53:56 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | Perhaps WINE might be doing some device selection thing where they try to not use iGPUs if a dGPU is present | 05:54:54 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | I've heard of some cases where the opposite was the case | 05:55:13 |
@atemu12:matrix.org | So that may be a workaround for that | 05:55:24 |
ersei | seems like vkcube doesn't want to run either without that variable set too | 05:57:38 |
ersei | actually it launches, but with a 20 second delay | 05:58:22 |
ersei | seems like vkcube is blocking on opening a bunch of files in /sys/bus/pci/devices/*/config repeatedly | 06:01:52 |
ersei | that doesn't explain the failure of proton, however, since the process seems to just stop | 06:03:36 |
ersei | hm, seems like I was mistaken and the process does not stop (after disabling the steam overlay) | 06:07:04 |
ersei | it 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 | seems like this is either a hardware or a nixos issue | 06:07:41 |

ersei | Alright, 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 |
