 K900 | No, it's simpledrm | 14:45:36 |
| K900 | Which is a placeholder not real driver | 14:45:41 |
| K900 | That runs on top of your EFI framebuffer | 14:45:47 |
| K900 | And yeah this is definitely not affected by Mesa | 14:45:57 |
| K900 | So my guess is that it's actually just racing, but not where you think it is | 14:46:13 |
| K900 | Maybe try early loading nvidia-drm | 14:51:42 |
 niklaskorz | out of interest... what would be the place to look up the timing of the nvidia driver being loaded? | 14:53:54 |
| niklaskorz | to compare it against the kwin logs | 14:54:03 |
| K900 | dmesg, possibly | 14:54:59 |
| niklaskorz | thx, I'll take another look when it happens again | 14:59:05 |
 Atemu | I was able to launch TrackMainia2020 just fine with ntsync last week | 15:12:14 |
| Atemu | (which is Ubisoft) | 15:12:45 |
| niklaskorz | Oh huh, I'll check Anno 1800 again | 15:12:47 |
| Atemu | Proton-GE and xanmod kernel | 15:13:38 |

 Sandro 🐧 | Is Xanmod worth it? The 2 posts I found on Google did suggest that the improvement is only very small | 15:10:41 |
| Sandro 🐧 | Can you share what you did to enable that? I've read you need to load a kernel module and set the env for proton. Anything beyond that? | 15:11:08 |
| niklaskorz | just the kernel module, Proton GE enables it by default if the module is loaded | 15:11:34 |
| niklaskorz | boot.kernelModules = [ "ntsync" ]; | 15:12:00 |
| niklaskorz | you can then disable it where needed with PROTON_NO_NTSYNC=1 | 15:12:31 |
| Sandro 🐧 | Nice, thanks | 16:09:18 |
| Atemu | I don't think there's a performance benefit. I mainly use it because it ports new in-development features early to otherwise stable kernels. NTSYNC has been in it for multiple releases before it went mainline for instance. Same with futex2 when I initially switched. | 16:22:01 |
| Sandro 🐧 | hmmm, I am not so keen on finding new bugs, I already do that enough 😅 | 19:02:29 |
| Sandro 🐧 | but yeah, good to know, thanks | 19:02:47 |

 Brisingr | Update: Wasn't a Ubisoft launcher issue (although the software is still sh*t). I disabled some kernel param/sysctl hardening stuff I had set in my config, which got it working. | 11:57:28 |
