jonringer | However, most people on distros are probably stuck in a broken state until their package manager can push an update | 02:37:17 |
sparogy | I saw a runtime PR out there | 02:38:17 |
jonringer | yea, https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/7807#issuecomment-847328220 | 02:41:46 |
jonringer | a "beta" runtime was distributed accidentally, which required it. | 02:42:17 |
sparogy | I see I see | 02:42:22 |
sparogy | well it forced me to frantically move to pipewire | 02:42:36 |
jonringer | LOL | 02:42:43 |
jonringer | you can use the command I did | 02:42:55 |
sparogy | I did, worked great 👍️ | 03:09:44 |
sparogy | I just assumed pipewire was the answer | 03:09:52 |
davidak | a fix for the steam issue was merged and will hopefully hit the channels soon | 03:16:39 |
davidak | you can use https://nixpk.gs/pr-tracker.html?pr=126144 to check the status | 03:16:52 |
davidak | is anyone still using 20.09 and can test this fix? https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/126147 it's otherwise good to merge | 03:17:31 |
jonringer | release wont be soon | 03:30:14 |
jonringer | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/126075#pullrequestreview-677945010 is blocking unstable and release | 03:36:58 |
philipp | In reply to @andrew:chat.afontaine.dev I just assumed pipewire was the answer It's true tho! 😀 | 07:56:40 |

Natan Lao | Hi, is anyone using the unfree nvidia drivers on 21.05? I upgraded to 21.05 and can't seem to get NixOS to use a driver that isn't nouveau, just trying to see if it's a known problem or if it's something I'm doing wrong locally | 22:59:01 |
Natan Lao | (Specifically, hardware.nvidia.package = config.boot.kernelPackages.nvidiaPackages.legacy_390;) | 23:03:56 |
jonringer | what card do you have? | 23:19:17 |
Natan Lao | i have a wheezing GTX 560 Ti | 23:19:37 |
Natan Lao | i'm just about to open an issue, this is the relevant lspci output:
$ nix-shell -p pciutils --run "lspci -k | grep -EA3 'VGA|3D|Display'"
07:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation GF114 [GeForce GTX 560 Ti] (rev a1)
Subsystem: Gigabyte Technology Co., Ltd Device 3515
Kernel driver in use: nouveau
Kernel modules: nvidiafb, nouveau, nvidia_drm, nvidia
| 23:20:03 |
jonringer | you probably want. services.xserver.videoDriver = [ "nvidiaLegacy390" ]; | 23:22:21 |
Natan Lao | Yeah, that used to work but is now deprecated on 21.05 | 23:22:35 |
jonringer | deprecated with error, or deprecated with warning? | 23:22:51 |
Natan Lao | Deprecated with error | 23:22:57 |
