Yeah, waht I meant is how should I go about running things on the dGPU. * | 23:26:25 |
 srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | I guess I have to try it then. Would need to wait until tomorrow but sounds good. | 23:26:53 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | The amount of headaches I had with my laptop graphics cannot be expressed with words. | 23:27:24 |
| srestegosaurio (on tchncs.de) | Specifically inconsistency. When things start and stop working for no apparent reason, etc… | 23:28:14 |
 olivia | if you don't want to wait for 25.1.1, you could do something like environment.variables.MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE = "zink"; to get zink-by-default | 23:31:38 |

| woobilicious | apparently the fix might be in Proton-GE 10.1 | 04:08:49 |
| woobilicious | Dead Island 2 & Happy Game are currently free on Epic Store if anyone wants them. | 04:34:06 |

heroic has a bug where umu-launcher doesnt get initialized properly on a newly installed game unless you go into the game's settings in heroic and toggle "Disable umu" on then off. Make sure you do this.

 Charles | often, via steam, when i launch warframe, close warframe, and then launch warframe again, on each subsequent launch steam will randomly do one or more of the following things:
- try to shut down entirely
- try to switch accounts (no other accounts have signed on this machine before)
- give me a prompt to uninstall something
- close its main window and refuse to ever open it again until i shut it down via the system tray icon
and so my question is, wtf?
| 00:48:54 |
| olivia | that's a good question | 01:36:02 |
| Charles | just found https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11672 and other duplicates of it so it's not just me, that's nice | 02:33:36 |
| Charles | https://github.com/ValveSoftware/steam-for-linux/issues/11449#issuecomment-2553318591 baffling; this seems to fix it for me too | 02:37:03 |
| olivia | I'm getting it too now lol | 05:39:40 |
| olivia | amazing failure state | 05:39:44 |
| Charles | fantastic | 05:41:33 |
 522 | oh huh

or something | 10:14:45 |

 @normalcea:matrix.org | Is the choice of filesystem relevant for gaming workloads? | 18:04:57 |
