I wonder if we could use lutris definitions to build nix-friendly wine prefixes, I could never get lutris working, and wine was very hit and miss, and I would accidentally install something in the same prefix and everything would break, adding the game to steam was far more reliable..having more success with heroic atm. but who knows how long that'll last. that'd take a lot of effort with little benefit | 16:21:38 |
| bandithedoge | lutris install scripts aren't designed with reproducible builds in mind | 16:23:29 |
| bandithedoge | reproducibility being the entire point of nix and nixos | 16:23:42 |
|  patka left the room. | 21:50:18 |
 woobilicious | bandithedoge: installing Windows apps and using nix is like trying to mix oil and water, I would probably just use the lutris defs to generate runtime scripts that do some checks. you need internet connection and read-write for prefixes, so full nix sandbox wouldn't be that useful here, just for generating scripts for runtime. | 23:01:50 |

 Patrizio | I've been playing around with installing them inside steam with Proton | 06:29:11 |

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlfm3MEbqYA dammit, they got the amdgpu thing wrong | 06:38:31 |
 srhb | At this point we should probably put it in the option description. | 06:42:19 |
| srhb | Everyone gets it wrong. | 06:42:24 |
 K900 | Which thing? | 06:42:24 |
| srhb | "amdgpu" vs "modesetting" | 06:42:33 |
| ElvishJerricco | videoDrivers = ["amdgpu"]; | 06:42:35 |
| srhb | (or just... no setting the thing" | 06:42:37 |
| ElvishJerricco | it's mostly because the wiki is wrong | 06:42:53 |
| ElvishJerricco | * it's mostly because the old wiki is wrong | 06:43:09 |
| ElvishJerricco | and I just have this deep disdain for putting any effort into correcting that thing | 06:43:29 |

it's mostly because the wiki is wrong Would make sense to change both. I see a lot of copy pasta from the wiki in general | 06:43:41 |
| ElvishJerricco | feel free | 06:43:51 |
| ElvishJerricco | I'm not going to do it | 06:43:54 |
| ElvishJerricco | it would take me a fulltime month to fix all the things I think are wrong in the old wiki | 06:44:45 |
| K900 | That sounds optimistic tbh | 06:45:32 |
| ElvishJerricco | I said all the things I think are wrong :P | 06:45:45 |
| ElvishJerricco | not the things I don't even know are wrong | 06:45:53 |
| eyJhb | Is the new wiki up-to-date RE modesetting and amdgpu? | 06:47:39 |
| ElvishJerricco | does it even have an amdgpu page? | 06:47:51 |
| ElvishJerricco | well it's got the modesetting bit right | 06:48:22 |
| ElvishJerricco | except it doesn't seem to know that's the default | 06:48:30 |
| ElvishJerricco | but it copy pasted most of the rest of the stuff and I don't know how correct that stuff was | 06:48:57 |
| ElvishJerricco | like it's still got the bit about using amdvlk and letting the program choose whether to use that or radv | 06:49:49 |
