@tejing:matrix.org@tejing:matrix.orgThe overlayed layers of the base prefix, install result, and ephemeral current prefix make for a pretty declarative model in the end. You do have to re-run the installer whenever wine or the program gets an update, though16:06:41
@tejing:matrix.org@tejing:matrix.organd since windows installers aren't always easy to run non-interactively...16:07:11

@arch:floofy.techArchHaving some fun issues with a Radeon 7900XT with the open source drivers. I get `src/tcmalloc.cc:278] Attempt to free invalid pointer 0x966faf0` when I try to run a game through Steam, and I can't figure out what is causing it πŸ€” Looking at the wiki, it mentions setting the `xserver` videoDrivers, but in other places I see mention of `modesetting`. So I'm a little lost.23:11:01

the wiki is wrong; modesetting is the default, so you shouldn't have to set it yourself, and it's the correct choice

@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgI have the same card and have (almost) no issues with it if I just leave everything stock01:23:17
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.orgat least on nixos-unstable, which is close enough to the same as 23.11 now that it's released01:23:30
@elvishjerricco:matrix.org@elvishjerricco:matrix.org Arch: though... isn't tcmalloc like it's own thing or something? That kinda makes me think it's a problem with that game on nixos rather than nixos in general 01:25:22
@k900:0upti.meK900 There was some stupid option that just LD_PRELOAD'ed tcmalloc globally without telling you 05:03:34
@k900:0upti.meK900I forgot what it was 05:03:42
@k900:0upti.meK900If you find it please rip it the fuck out 05:03:48

Yeah, it's weird. I can run games through Proton, but not native games (specifically testing TF2 and DOOM Eternal). I've tried some debugging steps to no avail - I am on nixos unstable with a zen kernel (swapping kernels is about the only thing I haven't done at this point)

@arch:floofy.techArchThis is the relevant NixOS config https://git.gmem.ca/arch/infra/src/branch/trunk/nix/london/configuration.nix#L156-L16910:49:33
@k900:0upti.meK900 Just to make sure: you don't have anything in $LD_PRELOAD do you 10:51:18
@arch:floofy.techArchNope, it doesn't exist in my env10:52:06
@arch:floofy.techArchCursed as hell solution but it works πŸ€”11:06:53
